Modern Slavery Statement for Man With A Van Camden
Man With A Van Camden is committed to conducting business with integrity, respect, and accountability. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps taken to reduce the risk of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that every Camden man with a van service depends on the fair treatment of workers, and we are determined to uphold a workplace culture built on dignity and compliance.
Our zero-tolerance policy applies to all employees, contractors, and suppliers. We do not accept any form of slavery, servitude, debt bondage, child labour, or coercion. Any evidence or suspicion of exploitation is treated as a serious matter and may result in immediate action, including termination of business relationships. This policy is embedded in our recruitment, onboarding, and procurement practices so that every part of the Man With A Van Camden operation reflects ethical standards.
We assess the nature of our activities and the sectors in which we operate to identify possible exposure to risk. While the logistics and removals industry can involve layered subcontracting and temporary labour, we aim to reduce risk through due diligence, documented checks, and clear expectations. As part of our approach, the Camden van hire network we work with is expected to demonstrate compliance with labour laws and safe working conditions.
Supplier management is central to our compliance framework. We carry out supplier audits and periodic reviews to verify that labour practices, wage arrangements, identity checks, and right-to-work controls meet our standards. These audits may include document verification, policy reviews, and confirmation that workers are treated fairly. Where concerns are identified, suppliers are asked to correct issues promptly and provide evidence of improvement. If remediation does not occur, we will reconsider the relationship.
Training is also an important part of prevention. Relevant staff receive guidance on recognising warning signs such as restricted movement, unusual dependency on intermediaries, withheld wages, or poor accommodation arrangements. We encourage managers to consider ethical risks when engaging subcontractors or acquiring services. This supports our wider commitment to responsible trading across the Man With A Van Camden supply chain and helps ensure that exploitation is not overlooked.
We provide clear reporting channels so concerns can be raised safely and without fear of retaliation. Reports may be made through internal management routes, by senior oversight, or through designated safeguarding procedures. All concerns are handled confidentially, investigated promptly, and escalated where necessary. We encourage anyone who suspects abuse, coercion, or unsafe labour practices to speak up, as early reporting is essential to effective intervention.
The effectiveness of our controls is reviewed throughout the year. We monitor supplier performance, investigate incidents, and track corrective actions to understand whether our measures are working. Findings from audits and reports inform improvements to policy, staff training, and supplier screening. In this way, the Camden man with a van operation remains responsive to emerging risks and aligned with responsible business practice.
We also expect our business partners to maintain their own robust safeguards. Suppliers must be transparent about labour sourcing, subcontracting arrangements, and any use of agency workers. Any partner working with Man With A Van Camden is required to comply with applicable employment, immigration, and health and safety laws. We reserve the right to request further information, conduct follow-up checks, or pause engagement where standards are not met.
This statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains accurate, relevant, and effective. Each annual review considers changes in operations, supplier risk, legislation, and internal procedures. Where needed, the statement and related controls are updated to reflect stronger safeguards. Through this cycle of review, audit, reporting, and accountability, Man With A Van Camden reaffirms its commitment to preventing modern slavery in all forms.
