Modern Slavery Statement for Man And Van Twickenham

Man And Van Twickenham is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. We recognise that modern slavery, forced labour, human trafficking, and exploitative working practices can occur in many sectors and supply chains. As a responsible Man and Van Twickenham service provider, we maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward all forms of slavery and exploitation in our operations, partnerships, and procurement activities.

Our approach is built on clear governance, staff awareness, and practical controls that help prevent risk before it arises. This statement applies to all employees, contractors, and suppliers engaged in support of our removals, transport, logistics, and related services. We expect every person working with Man And Van Twickenham to act ethically and to uphold the same standards. Where concerns arise, we take them seriously and respond promptly.

We actively assess the risk of modern slavery within our business and broader supply chain, especially where third-party labour, subcontracting, or high-pressure service delivery may be involved. The Twickenham man and van sector depends on many external providers, so our risk management focuses on supplier due diligence, fair contracting, and oversight of labour conditions. Any sign of coercion, deception, withheld documents, or unsafe work arrangements is treated as a matter for immediate escalation.

Supplier management is central to our commitment. We carry out proportionate supplier audits to check that partners share our standards on recruitment, pay, working hours, and treatment of workers. These audits may include document reviews, compliance checks, and follow-up questions about labour practices. Where a supplier cannot demonstrate acceptable controls, we will seek corrective action or end the relationship if necessary. This applies equally to Man and Van Twickenham providers, subcontractors, and other service partners.

Reporting channels are available to ensure that concerns can be raised safely and without fear of retaliation. Employees and partners are encouraged to report any suspected case of modern slavery, exploitation, unsafe recruitment, or unethical conduct through established internal reporting routes. Reports are handled confidentially, investigated appropriately, and escalated to management where required. We promote a culture in which speaking up is supported and protected.

Training and awareness are also important parts of our response. Relevant personnel receive guidance on recognising warning signs, including restricted freedom of movement, unusual wage deductions, confiscation of identity documents, or indications that a worker is being controlled by another person. By improving awareness across the organisation, Man And Van Twickenham strengthens its ability to identify risk early and act decisively.

In addition to prevention and reporting, we are committed to continuous improvement. Our policies are reviewed in light of operational changes, supplier performance, and evolving best practice. We monitor corrective actions and track completion where issues have been identified. If a breach of this statement is confirmed, we will take suitable action, which may include suspension, retraining, contract review, or termination of business relations.

We also maintain records of checks, audits, and investigations so that we can demonstrate accountability and measure progress over time. This structured approach helps ensure that the man and van Twickenham service we provide is not only efficient, but also ethically responsible. Every business decision is guided by our belief that no advantage is worth the cost of human exploitation.

Annual review is a formal requirement of this statement. At least once every year, senior management reviews the effectiveness of our controls, supplier oversight, reporting processes, and training activity. The review considers incidents, emerging risks, and opportunities to strengthen our response. Findings are used to update procedures and to reinforce our zero-tolerance policy across the business.

This statement reflects the values of Man And Van Twickenham and our ongoing commitment to ethical trading. We will continue to work with diligence and care to prevent modern slavery in all its forms. By maintaining strong standards, responsible procurement, and clear accountability, we aim to protect workers and uphold trust throughout every part of our Twickenham man and van operations.
