Hurstwood Homes operates a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking are not taking place anywhere in our supply chains.
Hurstwood Homes is a property development company based in Lancashire.
Our supply chains include various suppliers and contractors involved in construction. We expect our suppliers and contractors to adhere to the same high standards regarding modern slavery and human trafficking.
We undertake due diligence when considering new suppliers and contractors and regularly review our existing suppliers. This includes:
- Assessing the risk of slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains.
- Conducting audits of suppliers to evaluate their compliance with our standards.
- Including appropriate contractual clauses in agreements with suppliers to prohibit slavery and human trafficking.
We provide training on modern slavery and human trafficking awareness to relevant employees. This training includes information on how to identify the signs of slavery and human trafficking and the actions to take if slavery or human trafficking is suspected.
Employees, suppliers, or other stakeholders are encouraged to report any concerns about slavery or human trafficking. Reports can be made confidentially and will be investigated promptly.
Compliance with this policy is mandatory for all employees and contractors working on behalf of Hurstwood Homes. We monitor compliance through regular reviews and audits.
This policy is communicated to all employees, suppliers, and contractors and is available on our website.
This policy will be reviewed annually and updated as necessary to reflect changes in legislation, business practices, or any other relevant developments.
