OUR SUPPLY CHAIN

As part of our procurement processes, we require all our suppliers to comply with the requirements of the Modern Slavery Act and include appropriate contractual obligations within our commercial agreements. We require organisations quoting to work with RJL to confirm that they have fulfilled their statutory requirement to have produced a Modern Slavery Statement if they meet the criteria to do so.

DUE DILIGENCE

Through undertaking due diligence in our activity, we seek to ensure that we do not inadvertently support Modern Slavery. We make our processes known to potential staff and suppliers as a means of encouraging good practice.

We ensure that all staff are legally entitled to work in the UK and that the contract is directly with them.

We also ensure that any recruitment agency we use for the placement of temporary staff follows the same requirements to confirm the identity and right to work of individuals placed with us.

We also reserve the right to challenge any abnormally low-cost tenders to ensure they do not rely upon the potential contractor practising modern slavery.

We follow guidance provided by the Government Commercial Function and undertake reviews of our supply base to categorise our contracts by assessing these against key modern slavery risk indicators.

We will further review our supplier onboarding process to embed checks on suppliers to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

RISK ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT

The two principal areas of risk in relation to modern slavery at RJL relate to our contractual arrangements and recruitment of staff. The steps that we will take to manage these risks are outlined below. We ensure that consideration of the modern slavery risks and prevention are a priority to the RJL supplier approval registration review process as an employer and procurer of services. We will ensure when undertaking a further review of relevant people policies, they include the consideration and prevention of risks of engagement of people or groups through Modern Slavery.
