Modern Slavery Statement for Movers Roehampton

This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the approach of Movers Roehampton to preventing modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation across our operations and supply chains. We recognise that the moving and logistics sector can present heightened risks, particularly where labour is seasonal, subcontracted, or reliant on multiple service providers. For that reason, zero tolerance is the foundation of our policy and practice. We do not accept any form of slavery, servitude, debt bondage, child labour, or coercion in any part of our business.

Our commitment applies to every level of activity, including recruitment, procurement, transport, warehousing support, and outsourced services. The Movers Roehampton modern slavery statement is reviewed as a live document, reflecting our intention to strengthen controls year after year. All staff are expected to act ethically, follow internal procedures, and raise concerns where standards may not be met.

We are committed to ensuring that the Roehampton movers brand operates with integrity. This means selecting partners carefully, monitoring labour practices, and responding promptly to risk indicators. Modern slavery prevention is not treated as a separate compliance exercise; it is embedded into our wider governance, due diligence, and risk management processes.

Zero-Tolerance Policy

Our zero-tolerance policy prohibits any association with exploitative labour practices. No employee, contractor, or supplier may engage in conduct that supports slavery, trafficking, or unsafe and unlawful work arrangements. Where concerns arise, we investigate immediately and take decisive action, which may include contract suspension, remedial requirements, or termination of the business relationship.

Supplier Audits and Due Diligence

We carry out supplier audits as part of our due diligence framework. Movers Roehampton assesses suppliers based on labour standards, right-to-work checks, subcontracting transparency, wage practices, and working conditions. Higher-risk suppliers may be subject to enhanced review, including document verification, site inspection, and contractual obligations to maintain ethical employment standards.

The Movers Roehampton Statement also requires suppliers to confirm that they have their own anti-slavery controls in place. We expect them to cascade these standards to any lower-tier contractors they use. If a supplier cannot demonstrate adequate safeguards, we reserve the right to discontinue the relationship. Our aim is to build a supply chain that is responsible, traceable, and resilient.

Employees receive training so they can identify warning signs such as restricted movement, withheld wages, intimidation, or inconsistent employment records. This training supports a culture of vigilance across the business. We also make use of clear reporting channels so concerns can be raised safely and without fear of reprisal.

Reporting Channels

Any worker or supplier who suspects modern slavery may report it through internal reporting channels, including line management, designated compliance oversight, or confidential reporting routes. Reports may be made anonymously where permitted. All concerns are handled sensitively, recorded appropriately, and assessed promptly. We do not tolerate retaliation against anyone who raises a genuine concern in good faith.

Where an allegation is substantiated, Movers Roehampton will work with relevant parties to protect affected individuals and prevent recurrence. This may involve immediate escalation, suspension of orders, and engagement with appropriate authorities or specialist organisations. Safeguarding people remains our first priority.

Our annual compliance cycle includes supplier review, policy refresh, and staff awareness activity. We measure the effectiveness of our controls by reviewing audit outcomes, incident reports, and supplier improvements. This helps us understand whether our movers Roehampton controls are reducing risk and where further action is required.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement

We complete an annual review of this statement and of the procedures that support it. The review considers legal developments, supply chain changes, audit findings, training completion, and any reports received during the year. If gaps are identified, we implement corrective actions and update our processes accordingly.

By maintaining an annual review process, we ensure that the Roehampton moving services approach remains current, practical, and effective. Continuous improvement is essential, and we are committed to strengthening our controls as our business evolves.

In summary, Movers Roehampton is committed to preventing modern slavery in every area of its operations. Through a strict zero-tolerance policy, supplier audits, reporting channels, and an annual review process, we aim to uphold dignity, fairness, and accountability throughout our business and supply chain.
