Introduction

Follion UK Limited (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) is committed to promoting ethical practices and upholding human rights in all aspects of our business operations. This Modern Slavery Act Policy outlines our commitment to combatting modern slavery and human trafficking within our supply chain and operations.

Policy Statement

At Follion UK Limited, we firmly oppose all forms of modern slavery, human trafficking, and forced labour. We are dedicated to ensuring that our business operations and supply chain are free from any such practices. We strive to act responsibly, ethically, and with integrity in all our interactions and collaborations.

Our Approach

  1. Supply Chain Due Diligence: We conduct thorough due diligence when establishing relationships with suppliers and partners. We ensure that our suppliers adhere to our ethical standards and share our commitment to eradicating modern slavery.
  2. Supplier Contracts: Our contracts with suppliers include clauses that explicitly prohibit any form of modern slavery, human trafficking, or forced labour. Suppliers are expected to comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
  3. Employee Awareness: We educate our employees about modern slavery and human trafficking, fostering an organisational culture that values human rights and ethical practices.
  4. Reporting Mechanisms: We provide mechanisms for employees and stakeholders to report any concerns related to modern slavery within our organisation or supply chain. Whistleblower protection is an essential aspect of our policy.
  5. Training and Capacity Building: We provide training to our employees, particularly those involved in supply chain management, procurement, and vendor relationships, to enhance their understanding of modern slavery risks and mitigation strategies.
  6. Continuous Improvement: We regularly review and update our policies and procedures to address emerging risks and challenges related to modern slavery. We continuously seek ways to improve our practices and collaborate with industry partners to drive positive change.

Compliance and Accountability

The responsibility for implementing and monitoring this Modern Slavery Act Policy rests with Follion UK Limited’s senior management team. This policy is communicated to all employees, partners, and stakeholders associated with our business. Failure to comply with this policy may result in appropriate disciplinary action, including the termination of supplier relationships.
