Modern Slavery Policy

As a requirement under section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 the company has produced a policy statement confirming its support for the above law.

Castle & Pryor Ltd agree that Modern Slavery is a criminal activity and a violation of Human Rights. Exploitation of a person by depriving them of liberty and forced work at unacceptable pay levels for commercial or personal gain is unacceptable.

All staff employed directly, as part of a subsidiary company or part of the supply chain have a duty to communicate our zero tolerance of these issues at the start of any business relationship.

The responsible person(s) within the above organisations should be identified.

They must ensure that minimum labour standards are adhered to, how the business factors into its costing structure full labour costs into the sourcing of materials and production to avoid introduction of slave labour.

Due diligence is carried out when entering into new contracts or extending contracts.

All parties are aware than in the event of any evidence of slavery as outlined in the Act, the company reserves the right to terminate the business relationship with immediate effect, without penalty.

Any employee with concerns about this issue may report it in the knowledge that they will be protected under the company Whistleblowing procedure if they operate under UK law.
