ANTI-SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING POLICY 

(Updated 05/07/2023)

​

SLAVERY & HUMAN TRAFFICKING STATEMENT 

This applies to all persons working for us or on our behalf in any capacity, including employees at all levels, directors, officers, agency workers, seconded workers, volunteers, agents, contractors, and 

suppliers.  

We have an Anti-Slavery Policy to ensure our compliance with section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. 

ERPWorks UK Solutions Limited. strictly prohibits the use of modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chain. We are and will continue to be, committed to implementing systems and controls aimed at ensuring that modern slavery is not taking place anywhere within our organisation or in any of our supply chains. 

We expect our suppliers to hold their own suppliers to the same high standards. 

Modern slavery is a term used to encompass slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour, bonded and child labour and human trafficking. Human trafficking is where a person arranges or facilitates the travel of another person with a view to that person being exploited. Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. 

​

COMMITMENTS 

We are a company that expects everyone working with us or on our behalf to support and uphold the following measures to safeguard against modern slavery: 

• We have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery in our organisation and our supply chains. The prevention, detection and reporting of modern slavery in any part of our organisation or supply chain is the responsibility of all those working for us or on our behalf. 

• Workers must not engage in, facilitate, or fail to report any activity that might lead to, or suggest, a breach of this policy. 

• Our approach to our contracting processes is to keep them under review. We assess whether the circumstances warrant the inclusion of specific prohibitions against the use of modern slavery and trafficked labour in our contracts with third parties. 

Using our risk-based approach, we assess the merits of writing to suppliers requiring them to comply with our Code of Conduct, which sets out the minimum standards required to combat modern slavery and trafficking.  

 Consistent with our risk-based approach we may require: 

• Employment and recruitment agencies and other third parties supplying workers to our organisation to confirm their compliance with our Code of Conduct 

• Suppliers engaging workers through a third party to obtain that third parties’ agreement to adhere to the Code. 

As part of our ongoing risk assessment and due diligence process, we will consider whether circumstances warrant us carrying out audits of suppliers for their compliance with our Code of Conduct. 

If we find that other individuals or organisations working on our behalf have breached this policy, we will ensure that we take appropriate action. This may range from considering the possibility of breaches being remediated and whether that might represent the best outcome for those individuals impacted by the breach when terminating such relationships. Training will be made available to all our employees on slavery and human trafficking.
