Modern Slavery Act Transparency Statement
Our approach to preventing modern slavery, forced labour and human trafficking in our business and supply chain.
1. Our commitment
[LEGAL BUSINESS NAME] does not tolerate modern slavery, forced labour, human trafficking or exploitation in its business or supply chain. We aim to act responsibly and to work with suppliers and service providers that share these principles.
2. Organisation and supply chain
Bubbly Bean is an online children's and family content platform. Its suppliers may include website hosting, technology, content, payment, communications, production, printing, fulfilment and other service providers, depending on the services used.
This statement should be updated so it accurately describes the organisation's real operations and supply chain.
3. Policies
We aim to maintain standards covering responsible sourcing, ethical conduct, safeguarding, worker welfare and lawful employment. Relevant supplier and contractor requirements should be communicated proportionately to the risks involved.
4. Risk assessment and due diligence
We will consider modern slavery risks when selecting and reviewing relevant suppliers and contractors, taking account of geography, industry, labour model, use of agencies and other risk factors. Where appropriate, we may request supplier policies or assurances and investigate concerns.
5. Reporting concerns
Concerns about forced labour, trafficking or exploitation connected with our business or supply chain should be reported to [YOUR LEGAL/ETHICS EMAIL]. We will consider concerns seriously and take appropriate action.
6. Training and awareness
As the organisation grows, relevant staff and decision-makers should receive proportionate awareness or training on modern slavery risks and responsible procurement.
7. Monitoring and review
We will review this statement and our approach periodically and improve our processes as the organisation and its supply chain develop.
