Modern Slavery Statement — Skip Hire Tufnell Park Commitment

Skip Hire Tufnell Park is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms across our operations and supply chains. This modern slavery statement sets out our policies, actions and ongoing commitments. We operate with a zero-tolerance policy towards forced labour, debt bondage, child labour and any practice that breaches human rights. Our approach applies to every part of our skip-hire and waste management activities and to every person engaged to deliver services to our customers in Tufnell Park and surrounding areas.

We recognise that as a local skip hire business — whether described as skip-hire Tufnell Park, Tufnell Park skip hire services or Skip Hire Tufnell Park — we have a responsibility to be vigilant and proactive. Our policies require all employees and contractors to comply with labour standards and to treat people with dignity and respect. All new hires receive training which includes an overview of modern slavery risks, how to spot indicators and the requirement to report concerns through the approved channels.

We maintain a clear zero-tolerance policy that is enforced across procurement, transport and on-site operations. Suppliers, drivers, subcontractors and partners must adhere to our code of conduct which obliges them to demonstrate compliance with employment, health and safety and human rights laws. Any breach of this policy triggers disciplinary action up to and including termination of contracts and reporting to the appropriate authorities.

Supplier Due Diligence and Audit Programme

Our supplier assurance work includes a robust audit regime. We conduct risk-based supplier audits and assessments to verify labour practices, working hours, wage payments and recruitment processes. Audits are prioritised for suppliers identified through risk screening and those providing manual labour or transportation services. The supplier audit process includes document review, interviews and site visits where required.

Key elements of our supplier audits include:

• Verification of employment records and right to work documentation;
• Assessment of recruitment practices to detect use of fees or coercive practices;
• Review of pay and working hours to ensure compliance with relevant wage laws;
• Inspection of living and working conditions where applicable;
• Corrective action plans with timelines for any issues discovered.

We reserve the right to remove suppliers from our approved list if they fail to implement corrective measures or if issues indicate systemic non-compliance. This supplier management process helps protect workers and supports sustainable partnerships for responsible skip hire in Tufnell Park.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

To promote early detection, we maintain clear and accessible reporting channels. Employees, contractors and third parties are encouraged to raise concerns if they suspect modern slavery or human rights abuses. Reports can be made confidentially and will be investigated promptly and impartially. We protect whistleblowers from retaliation and ensure that investigations follow documented procedures.

Our response to reports includes immediate risk assessment, liaison with relevant authorities when necessary and support for affected individuals. Findings from investigations feed into preventative measures, updated training and supplier remediation. We treat every report seriously and aim to resolve concerns in a manner that safeguards people and maintains service integrity across our skip hire operations.

We will review this modern slavery statement and our related policies on an annual review basis to ensure effectiveness and continuous improvement. The annual review examines training outcomes, audit results, incident reports and supply chain changes. Where improvements are needed we will update our controls and enhance monitoring to further reduce the risk of modern slavery in all forms. This document is part of our ongoing commitment to ethical, transparent and responsible business practices for skip hire services in Tufnell Park and beyond.
