Man With Van Waterloo is committed to conducting business with integrity, dignity, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking in our operations and supply chain. We recognise that even businesses in the removals and transport sector must remain alert to risks, especially where temporary labour, subcontracted services, and supplier networks are involved. Our approach is guided by a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of exploitation.

As a responsible Man With Van Waterloo service, we expect everyone working with us to share this commitment. We will not knowingly engage with any person, business, or partner that is involved in abusive labour practices. We also require our teams to understand that modern slavery is a serious crime and a fundamental breach of trust. This statement applies to all areas of our business, including recruitment, operations, logistics, procurement, and supplier management.

Our internal controls are designed to reduce vulnerability and encourage accountability. We use risk-based checks when selecting providers and reviewing working arrangements, paying close attention to wage compliance, working hours, right-to-work documentation, and the treatment of workers. Where concerns arise, they are investigated promptly and escalated without delay. We believe that a strong Man With Van Waterloo modern slavery statement must be practical, clear, and backed by action.

A key part of our prevention strategy is supplier oversight. We conduct supplier audits proportionate to the level of risk involved. These audits may include document reviews, confirmation of employment practices, and checks on subcontracting chains. We expect suppliers to keep accurate records and to cooperate fully with our review process. If a supplier fails to meet our standards, we will require corrective action and may suspend or end the relationship if necessary.

We also promote awareness throughout the business so that all staff and contractors understand how to identify warning signs. Indicators may include unusual restrictions on movement, withheld documents, excessive working hours, debt bondage, or signs of intimidation. Our managers are trained to respond carefully and respectfully, ensuring that any possible case of exploitation is handled in line with legal and ethical obligations. This supports a safer Waterloo Man With Van operation and a more transparent supply chain.

Clear reporting channels are essential to this commitment. Any employee, contractor, or supplier who suspects a concern may raise it through internal reporting routes, which are handled confidentially and without retaliation. Reports are reviewed by appropriate managers, and where required, by senior leadership. We encourage prompt reporting because early action can protect individuals, preserve evidence, and stop harm from continuing within the Man With Van Waterloo network.

We understand that effective action requires ongoing improvement. For that reason, this statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains relevant to our risks, our operations, and changes in law or best practice. The review includes an assessment of supplier performance, audit findings, training needs, and any incidents or concerns recorded during the year. Where improvements are identified, we update our procedures accordingly.

Man With Van Waterloo is committed to maintaining a responsible and ethical workplace, with a sustained focus on preventing exploitation in all forms. Our modern slavery commitments are embedded in decision-making, supplier selection, and operational oversight. By applying a zero-tolerance policy, carrying out supplier audits, maintaining reporting channels, and completing an annual review, we aim to uphold the highest standards of business conduct.

We will continue to strengthen our controls and reinforce our expectations across the business. Man With Van Waterloo modern slavery policy, supplier accountability, and staff awareness remain central to our long-term approach. Our goal is not only compliance, but also meaningful protection for workers and partners connected to our services.
