Anti-slavery and Human Trafficking Policy
Why this policy is here
Modern slavery and human trafficking are serious global issues that destroy lives. Although Arrisan is not legally required to publish a statement under the Modern Slavery Act 2015, we believe it is important to be transparent about our commitment. Exploitation has no place in Arrisan, or anywhere else. These issues matter, and we want to be clear about the standards we set for ourselves and for everyone we work with.
Our Commitment
Arrisan has a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. We are committed to acting ethically, with integrity, and ensuring that slavery and exploitation have no place in our business or supply chains.
What this means in practice
We do not permit the use of forced, bonded, trafficked, or child labour in any part of our operations or supply chains.
We expect the same standards from everyone we work with, including associates, employees (whether temporary, fixed term or permanent), consultants, contractors, trainees, interns or any other person associated with us (including third parties).
We only work with reputable recruitment agencies and always check that everyone we contract with are legally entitled to work in the UK.
We provide all individuals who work with Arrisan with written contracts and clear information on their rights.
Responsibilities of those who work with Arrisan
Read and follow this policy.
Stay alert to signs of modern slavery (e.g., workers without proper contracts, signs of coercion, or restrictions on freedom of movement).
Report any concerns promptly to an Arrisan Director.
Support for speaking up
We encourage openness and will support anyone who raises a concern in good faith. No one will suffer detrimental treatment for reporting suspicions.
Training and awareness
This policy is shared with all team members as part of Arrisan’s onboarding process. We also make it clear to all suppliers and clients that Arrisan will not accept any form of exploitation.
