Modern Slavery is a huge problem in our world, with an estimated 21 million people affected. We take it upon ourselves to look at and ensure all areas of our business are free from slavery.
Turrall will play an active role in working with its suppliers towards eradicating global slavery.
Turrall will audit its suppliers to understand more about its supply chain and will work with suppliers to improve any risks or issues it uncovers. Supplier audits and questionnaires will form part of the process.
- Training available to staff:
Our staff will play a key role in making sure we uphold the values of the Slavery Act. All staff are trained on the Slavery Act, what it is and why it exists.
All staff have their training signed off on by a manager once they have demonstrated a clear understanding of the policies in relation to anti-slavery and human rights.
All training forms part of the on boarding process and continuation of training that is essential to the running of our company.
- Steps taken by the company to address and remedy modern slavery:
An Anti-Slavery statement is to be made available to the public. The Anti-Slavery statement must be signed by a director of the company and communicated to all staff. The statement is to be made available on the company website.
Where reports of modern slavery are found by the company these will be reported to the authorities. Turrall will stop working with any stakeholders that are involved in slavery or the mistreatment of workers, in line with our company policies.
Turrall will continue to work with its suppliers to uphold the aims of the slavery act and where needed provide assistance to stakeholders to improve and work towards eradicating modern day slavery where it is found.
