Modern Slavery Statement — Feltham Skip Hire

Feltham Skip Hire is committed to the highest standards of ethical conduct and human rights. We operate a strict zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking and forced labour in all forms. This statement sets out our approach to preventing slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains, reflecting the responsibilities of Feltham skip hire and related businesses under applicable laws.

Our policy applies across the organisation and to all workers, contractors and suppliers engaged with Feltham skips. We define modern slavery to include forced labour, bonded labour, slavery, servitude and human trafficking. All leaders and employees receive training to recognise risks and to ensure that no person is subject to exploitation as part of our skip hire in Feltham activities.

We require that every supplier, subcontractor and partner who supplies goods or services to Feltham Skip Hire agrees to our Supplier Code of Conduct, which explicitly prohibits slavery and human trafficking. Our procurement process includes due diligence checks on new suppliers, and enhanced screening for higher risk sectors. We use contractual clauses that require compliance, allow audits and require immediate remediation where issues are identified.

Due Diligence, Audits and Supplier Assurance

We undertake targeted supplier audits, both remote and on-site, to verify working conditions, lawful employment and proper wages. Audits are prioritised by risk factors such as geography, industry and the nature of the service. Audit findings are documented and Feltham Skip-hire requires corrective action plans with time-bound milestones where non-compliance is found.

Our due diligence process combines documentation review, worker interviews and physical inspections where necessary. We monitor recruitment practices to ensure no fees are charged to workers, and we require transparent record-keeping for hours worked and payroll. If a supplier fails to meet our standards and does not implement corrective actions, we will suspend or terminate the commercial relationship.

To support continuous improvement we maintain a programme of supplier development that includes training, worker awareness sessions and collaborative work to build ethical procurement capacity across the waste management and skip hire supply chain.

Reporting, Remediation and Annual Review

We promote safe and accessible reporting channels for concerns regarding modern slavery. Workers, suppliers and third parties can report issues through internal whistleblowing channels and third-party reporting mechanisms. Reports are treated confidentially and investigated promptly. Our commitment is to protect whistleblowers from retaliation and to take proportionate action where allegations are substantiated.

Remediation may include immediate safety measures for affected individuals, steps to restore lawful employment conditions, compensation where appropriate and contract enforcement against culpable parties. Feltham skip hire works with external advisors, legal counsel and, where necessary, authorities to ensure victims receive appropriate support and justice.

The Board of Directors reviews this modern slavery statement and our anti-slavery programme at least annually. We publish a summary of our progress and key metrics, review our risk assessment methodology and update policies to strengthen controls. Continuous monitoring, supplier audits and staff training are core to our approach as a responsible provider of skip hire in Feltham.

Key elements of our action plan include:

• Clear zero-tolerance policy communicated to all staff and suppliers.
• Risk-based supplier audits and contractual safeguards.
• Accessible reporting channels and confidential investigations.
• Remediation protocols and protection for reporting individuals.
• Annual review of performance and policy updates.

By embedding these measures across our operations, skip hire Feltham demonstrates a steadfast commitment to preventing modern slavery. Feltham Skip Hire will continue to assess risks, engage suppliers and strengthen controls to protect human rights throughout our business and supply chain.
