Modern Slavery Statement — Commercial Waste Manor Park
Commercial Waste Manor Park is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking across our operations and supply chains. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our approach, policies and continuous actions to ensure that exploitation has no place in our business. We adopt a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of forced labour, debt bondage, involuntary servitude or human trafficking within our operations and among our suppliers.
We require all staff and contractors to understand their role in identifying risks. Our safeguarding measures are underpinned by clear governance, defined responsibilities and mandatory training for employees engaged in procurement and site supervision. Commercial Waste in Manor Park must be managed ethically and responsibly — this commitment guides our procurement, subcontractor selection and operational practices.
We operate robust supplier selection and monitoring processes. Supplier audits are a cornerstone of our approach: we conduct pre-qualification checks, periodic on-site audits and desktop reviews to assess labour standards, working conditions and compliance with laws. Audit findings lead to corrective action plans, and persistent non-compliance results in contract termination. Our supplier audit program for Manor Park commercial waste includes risk-based assessments, document reviews and worker interviews where appropriate.
Policies, Due Diligence and Supply Chain Oversight
We have implemented policies that apply to everyone working for or on behalf of CW Manor Park: employees, contractors and suppliers. These policies include a Supplier Code of Conduct, Contractor Safety and Labour Standards and a Confidential Reporting Policy. We expect suppliers to adopt comparable policies and to be transparent about their sub-contracting arrangements.
Our due diligence process identifies, assesses and mitigates modern slavery risks across the commercial waste supply chain. Key elements include:
- Risk mapping of geographical and sectoral vulnerabilities
- Contractual clauses requiring compliance with anti-slavery standards
- Periodic supplier performance reviews and documentation audits
Where higher-risk relationships are identified, we implement enhanced monitoring and collaborate with suppliers to remediate issues. We maintain records of our due diligence activities to demonstrate accountability and continuous improvement.
Reporting, Training and Continuous Improvement
We provide multiple reporting channels so issues can be raised safely and confidentially. Reports can be made through internal reporting lines, anonymously via our whistleblowing mechanism and via line managers. All reports are investigated promptly, with protections against retaliation. Reporting channels support early detection and remediation of potential slavery risks in Commercial Waste Manor Park operations.
We invest in regular training and awareness sessions for employees and suppliers. Training covers how to spot indicators of exploitation, how to report concerns and how to support affected individuals. Our procurement team receives specialised training on conducting supplier audits and interpreting indicators uncovered during inspections.
Monitoring and review are ongoing. We perform supplier audits at defined intervals, track corrective actions and publish internal performance metrics. An annual review of this modern slavery approach is conducted to assess effectiveness, incorporate lessons learned and update targets. The outcome of the annual review shapes our improvement plan for the next cycle.
Commercial Waste Manor Park will continue to strengthen its approach to prevention and remediation. We emphasise transparency, accountability and collaboration with partners to ensure that Manor Park commercial waste services are delivered without exploitation, consistent with our zero tolerance stance. This statement is reviewed annually and revised as needed to reflect evolving risks and best practice.
