Modern Day Slavery Clause

At Finola, we are committed to ethical business practices and the protection of human rights. We firmly oppose any form of modern-day slavery, including forced labor, human trafficking, and child labor. As part of our dedication to social responsibility, we have implemented the following Modern Day Slavery Clause:

  1. Compliance with Laws: We pledge to comply with all applicable laws and regulations related to modern-day slavery, including but not limited to the Modern Slavery Act 2015, and any other relevant legislation in the jurisdictions in which we operate.

  2. Supply Chain Due Diligence: We are committed to conducting due diligence throughout our supply chain to ensure that slavery and human trafficking are not present. This includes evaluating our suppliers, contractors, and other business partners to verify that they uphold the same principles against modern-day slavery.

  3. Supplier Code of Conduct: We require all our suppliers and business partners to adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct, which explicitly prohibits the use of forced labor, human trafficking, and child labor. This code emphasises the importance of fair wages, safe working conditions, and the protection of workers' rights.

  4. Risk Assessment: We conduct regular risk assessments to identify and evaluate any potential risks of modern-day slavery within our supply chain. If any red flags or concerns are identified, we take prompt action to mitigate and address those risks.

  5. Training and Awareness: We provide training and awareness programs for our employees, suppliers, and other relevant stakeholders to enhance their understanding of modern-day slavery issues and their role in preventing and addressing them.

  6. Reporting and Accountability: We encourage our employees, suppliers, and stakeholders to report any suspected cases of modern-day slavery promptly. We have established clear channels for reporting, and we ensure that all reports are thoroughly investigated. We take appropriate action against any violations, which may include termination of business relationships if necessary.

  7. Continuous Improvement: We are dedicated to continuously improving our efforts to combat modern-day slavery. We regularly review and update our policies, procedures, and practices to ensure their effectiveness and alignment with evolving standards and best practices.

By incorporating this Modern Day Slavery Clause into our website, we aim to contribute to the eradication of modern-day slavery and promote fair and ethical practices throughout our supply chain.
