Modern Slavery Statement for Man With Van Cubitttown
Man With Van Cubitttown is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out our zero-tolerance policy toward slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking in any part of our operations or supply chain. We recognise that modern slavery can take many forms, and we take responsibility for identifying, preventing, and addressing any risk associated with our activities.
As a provider of moving and transport services, Man With Van Cubitttown works with suppliers, contractors, and service partners who support our day-to-day operations. We expect all parties to uphold the same ethical standards that guide our business. Our approach is based on due diligence, transparency, and continuous improvement, ensuring that our business practices remain aligned with our values and legal obligations.
We have established clear internal procedures to detect potential risks and to escalate concerns without delay. Any sign of exploitation, coercion, document retention, debt bondage, or abusive working conditions is treated as a serious matter. We encourage a culture in which employees and partners understand that modern slavery is unacceptable, and we make sure that our policy is communicated across relevant teams and working relationships.
Supplier Due Diligence and Oversight
Supplier management is central to our anti-slavery commitment. Before engaging new suppliers, Man With Van Cubitttown assesses the nature of the service, the geographic location, and the likelihood of labour-related risk. We seek assurances that suppliers maintain lawful working conditions, fair pay, and appropriate right-to-work practices. Where higher risk is identified, additional scrutiny is applied.
Supplier audits form an important part of our control framework. These audits may include document reviews, workforce checks, and an assessment of recruitment and employment practices. If concerns arise, we require corrective action plans and reserve the right to suspend or end a relationship where serious breaches are found. We expect suppliers to cooperate fully and to demonstrate ongoing compliance.
We also monitor our supply chain through regular communication and periodic review. This helps us understand whether any supplier has changed its operating model, sourcing arrangements, or labour arrangements in ways that could increase risk. By keeping oversight active, Man With Van Cubitttown strengthens its ability to identify issues early and respond responsibly.
Reporting, Training, and Accountability
Everyone working with or for Man With Van Cubitttown has a role in preventing modern slavery. Employees receive guidance on recognising warning signs and on how to respond appropriately if something appears inconsistent with our standards. We want staff to feel confident raising concerns, knowing that issues will be taken seriously and handled discreetly.
We maintain reporting channels that allow concerns to be raised internally through management routes and designated compliance processes. Reports may relate to suspected exploitation, unsafe labour practices, coercion, or unethical recruitment methods. All concerns are reviewed promptly, and appropriate action is taken based on the facts available. Retaliation against anyone who reports in good faith is not tolerated.
Accountability is shared across the business. Managers are expected to promote ethical conduct and to act swiftly if risks are identified. Where necessary, we may require remediation, increased monitoring, or independent verification. Our objective is not only compliance, but the active protection of vulnerable workers throughout our operations and business relationships.
Annual Review and Ongoing Improvement
This statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains effective, relevant, and aligned with current legal expectations and business practices. The review considers any incidents, supplier findings, audit outcomes, and changes in our operational risk profile. From this process, we identify opportunities to strengthen controls and improve training, oversight, and supplier management.
In the coming year, Man With Van Cubitttown will continue to reinforce its zero-tolerance policy, enhance supplier audits where required, and improve internal awareness of modern slavery risks. We believe that responsible business practice depends on vigilance, clear standards, and a willingness to act when concerns emerge. Through these efforts, we aim to contribute to a safer and more ethical supply chain.
Our commitment is ongoing. By maintaining strong governance, transparent reporting, and regular review, Man With Van Cubitttown seeks to ensure that modern slavery has no place in our business or in the services that support it.
