Modern Slavery, The use of child labour and the Human Trafficking Statement

Overview

Our statement is made pursuant to Section 54, Part 6 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and sets out InterFocus Ltd actions to understand all potential modern slavery risks related to its business and to put in place steps that are aimed at ensuring that there is no slavery, illegal child labour or human trafficking in its own business and its supply chains

Interfocus Ltd recognises that it has a responsibility to take a robust approach to slavery, the use of child labour and human trafficking. The organisation is absolutely committed to preventing slavery, the use of illegal child labour and human trafficking In its activities, and to ensuring that its supply chains are free from slavery, the use of illegal child labour and human trafficking. We encourage our clients, partners, contractors, suppliers and other stakeholders to bring any necessary changes into effect, to review their effectiveness and consider any changes or additional measures which such a review highlights.

Supply Chain

Interfocus Ltd is committed to ensuring that its suppliers adhere to the highest standards of ethics at all times. Where necessary suppliers are required to demonstrate that they provide safe working conditions, treat workers with dignity and respect, but above all act ethically and within the law in their use of labour.

We have assessed our exposure to the risk of modern slavery, the use of illegal child labour and human trafficking as very-low risk within our supply chain, as the countries we operate with have a relatively low prevalence of slavery. However, we do recognise that modern slavery risks may go beyond our immediate suppliers, for example where their suppliers may operate in countries where slavery, the use of child labour and human trafficking is more prevalent, or where their suppliers may use raw materials in manufacturing sourced from high-risk countries.

Interfocus will endeavour to work with suppliers to ensure that they meet the standards requested and improve their worker’s working conditions. However, Interfocus Ltd will not tolerate serious violations and will always terminate business relationships in such instances.
