Modern Slavery Statement for Man With A Van Mill Hill

At Man With A Van Mill Hill, we are committed to conducting our business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps taken by Man With A Van Mill Hill to prevent slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. We recognise that modern slavery can exist in many forms, and we maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward any practice that exploits vulnerable people. Our commitment applies to all employees, contractors, and suppliers associated with our moving and transport services.

We understand that the nature of logistics, transport, and outsourced services can create risks if standards are not actively managed. For that reason, Mill Hill Man With A Van has established clear internal controls designed to identify, assess, and reduce the risk of modern slavery. These controls reflect our responsibility to uphold ethical working conditions, lawful employment practices, and transparent business relationships across every stage of our service delivery.

As part of our due diligence, we expect all suppliers to comply with applicable labour laws and to demonstrate that their own workforce practices are ethical and lawful. Supplier audits are a key part of our approach, and where appropriate we review documentation, working conditions, subcontracting arrangements, and labour practices. If concerns are identified, we will investigate them promptly and require corrective action. We may suspend or end a relationship where serious breaches are confirmed. This helps ensure that the values of Man With A Van Mill Hill are reflected throughout our supply chain.

Our team receives guidance on recognising the indicators of modern slavery, including restricted movement, withheld documents, coercion, debt bondage, and signs of intimidation. We encourage vigilance in all day-to-day activities, especially when engaging external labour providers or temporary workers. By reinforcing awareness, Man With A Van Mill Hill strengthens its ability to detect and address unacceptable conduct before it causes harm.

We also maintain secure and accessible reporting channels so that concerns can be raised without fear of retaliation. Employees and business partners may report suspicions confidentially through internal management routes, and all reports are treated seriously, fairly, and promptly. Where necessary, concerns will be escalated for investigation, and appropriate action will be taken in line with our disciplinary and contractual processes. Protecting whistleblowers and encouraging openness are essential to sustaining a responsible workplace culture.

In addition, our procurement and operational decisions are informed by risk-based review processes. We seek to work only with suppliers who share our commitment to ethical conduct, and we reserve the right to request evidence of compliance at any time. Mill Hill Man With A Van expects honesty, cooperation, and traceability from all partners, particularly where labour is supplied through agencies, subcontractors, or seasonal arrangements.

Governance and Accountability

Overall responsibility for this statement and the related controls rests with senior management, who are tasked with ensuring that anti-slavery measures remain effective and proportionate. This includes reviewing supplier performance, overseeing investigations, and monitoring the completion of training and corrective actions. Accountability is essential to turning policy into practice, and Man With A Van Mill Hill treats this as a core governance responsibility rather than a standalone compliance exercise.

We will continue to improve our understanding of labour risks by reviewing relevant business activities and responding to changes in legislation, market conditions, and sourcing practices. Our commitment is not limited to formal policy language; it is embedded in how we select suppliers, manage operations, and build trust with customers and partners. A strong ethical framework supports both business resilience and the protection of vulnerable people.

This statement will be reviewed annually to confirm its continued suitability and to identify areas for improvement. During each review, we will assess the effectiveness of our zero-tolerance policy, supplier audits, reporting channels, and any remedial actions taken during the year. Where necessary, we will update our procedures to strengthen prevention and improve oversight. Annual review ensures that Man With A Van Mill Hill remains proactive, accountable, and aligned with best practice.

Our Ongoing Commitment

In summary, Man With A Van Mill Hill is committed to preventing modern slavery in every part of its business. Through a firm zero-tolerance stance, careful supplier audits, reliable reporting channels, and an annual review process, we aim to uphold dignity, legality, and responsibility in all operations. This statement reflects our ongoing promise to act ethically and to challenge any practice that undermines human rights.
