Man With Van Harrow is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent slavery, forced labour, human trafficking, and exploitative working practices within our operations and supply chain. We recognise that every worker deserves dignity, lawful treatment, and safe conditions.

Our zero-tolerance policy applies to all employees, contractors, and suppliers. We do not accept any form of modern slavery, whether direct or indirect, and we expect the same standard from every business partner. Any breach of this commitment is treated as a serious matter and may result in immediate termination of relationships or further action where required.

To support this approach, Man With Van Harrow carries out appropriate due diligence when appointing suppliers and reviewing existing arrangements. We assess risk based on geography, service type, labour model, and the nature of the goods or services provided. Where concerns arise, we request evidence of compliance, such as workforce policies, right-to-work checks, and relevant employment procedures.

Our procurement practices are designed to encourage ethical conduct at every level. We aim to work only with partners that share our values, and we promote awareness of modern slavery risks through internal guidance and managerial oversight. Modern slavery prevention is not a one-time exercise; it is part of our ongoing responsibility as a responsible service provider.

Supplier audits form an important part of our monitoring process. Depending on risk level, audits may include document reviews, site visits, and verification of labour standards. If a supplier cannot demonstrate compliance, we may require corrective actions, increase monitoring, or end the relationship. These checks help Man With Van Harrow identify vulnerabilities early and maintain ethical standards across the supply chain.

We also encourage workers and third parties to raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Reporting channels are available for anyone who suspects misconduct, unsafe labour practices, or possible exploitation. Allegations are handled confidentially and investigated promptly. We believe that speaking up is essential to uncovering hidden risks and protecting vulnerable people.

The people working for Man With Van Harrow receive information on recognising warning signs of modern slavery, including unusual restriction of movement, withheld wages, or signs of coercion. Managers are expected to act immediately if they identify indicators of abuse. Our internal culture is based on accountability, vigilance, and respect for lawful employment.

We maintain clear escalation procedures so concerns are reviewed by appropriate decision-makers. Where needed, we cooperate with relevant authorities and support measures to protect affected individuals. We understand that tackling exploitation requires more than policy statements; it requires consistent action, evidence-based controls, and regular improvement.

This statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains effective, relevant, and aligned with current legislation and operational risks. The review considers supplier performance, audit findings, reporting trends, and any changes in business activity. Man With Van Harrow remains committed to strengthening its safeguards and promoting ethical business practices across every part of its work.
