Modern Slavery Statement<\/h1>

This statement is made pursuant to s.54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and sets out the steps that YorPower has taken and is continuing to take to ensure that modern slavery or human trafficking is not taking place within our business or supply chain.<\/p>

Modern slavery encompasses slavery, servitude, human trafficking and forced labour. YorPower has a zero tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery. We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity and transparency in all business dealings and to putting effective systems and controls in place to safeguard against any form of modern slavery taking place within the business or our supply chain.<\/p>

Our Policies:<\/strong><\/p>

We operate a number of internal policies to ensure that we are conducting business in an ethical and transparent manner. These include:<\/p>

  1. Ethical Trading policy. This policy sets out the organisation\u2019s stance on employed labour.<\/p><\/li>

  2. Recruitment policy. We operate a robust recruitment policy, including conducting eligibility to work in the UK checks for all employees to safeguard against human trafficking or individuals<\/p>

    being forced to work against their will.<\/p><\/li>

  3. Whistleblowing policy.<\/p><\/li>

  4. Staff handbook. This document explains the manner in which we behave as an organisation<\/p>

    and how we expect our employees and suppliers to act. YorPower operate a whistleblowing policy so that all employees know that they can raise concerns about how colleagues are being treated, or practices within our business or supply chain, without fear of reprisals.<\/p><\/li>

  5. Our suppliers. YorPower operates a supplier policy and maintains a preferred supplier list. We conduct due diligence on all suppliers before allowing them to become a preferred supplier. This due diligence can include an online search to ensure that particular organisation has never been convicted of offences relating to modern slavery and on site audits which include a review of working conditions.<\/p><\/li>

  6. Training. We regularly conduct training for our procurement\/buying teams so that they understand the signs of modern slavery and what to do if they suspect that it is taking place within our supply chain.<\/p><\/li><\/ol>

    Our performance indicators:<\/p>

    We will know the effectiveness of the steps that we are taking to ensure that slavery and\/or human trafficking is not taking place within our business or supply chain if:<\/p>

    No reports are received from employees, the public, or law enforcement agencies to indicate that modern slavery practices have been identified.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
