Slavery And Human Trafficking Statement

This statement has been published by Devisha Consultancy in accordance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015. It sets out the steps taken by Devisha Consultancy to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking throughout its business during the financial year ending on or after 1 April 2021.

 

 

Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It takes various forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking, all of which have in common the deprivation of a person’s liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain.

 

Devisha Consultancy has a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, and 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 modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains.

 

We are also committed to ensuring there is transparency in our own business and in our approach to tackling modern slavery throughout our supply chains, consistent with our disclosure obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

 

We expect the same high standards from all of our contractors, suppliers and other business partners, and as part of our contracting processes, in the coming year we will include specific prohibitions against the use of forced, compulsory or trafficked labour, or anyone held in slavery or servitude, whether adults or children, and we expect that our suppliers will hold their own suppliers to the same high standards.

 

This policy 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, interns, agents, contractors, external consultants, third-party representatives and business partners.

 

This policy does not form part of any employee’s contract of employment and we may amend it at any time.

 

 

Responsibility for the policy

 

Our organization has overall responsibility for ensuring this policy complies with our legal and ethical obligations, and that all those under our control comply with it.

 

The Company has primary and day-to-day responsibility for implementing this policy, monitoring its use and effectiveness, dealing with any queries about it, and auditing internal control systems and procedures to ensure they are effective in countering modern slavery.

 

Management at all levels are responsible for ensuring those reporting to them understand and comply with this policy and are given adequate and regular training on it and the issue of modern slavery in supply chains.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Training & Awareness

 

To ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and our business, we provide training to relevant staff as part of their induction and provide refresher training as appropriate.

 

  The organization will also raise awareness of modern slavery issues to staff, via the team briefing 

  cascade and provide guidance on basic principles of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

 

Board Approval

 

This statement has been approved by the organization’s board of directors, who will review and update it annually.
