Our policiesSanctuary Personnel has a modern slavery policy. In addition, Sanctuary Personnel has the following policies which incorporate ethical standards for our staff and our suppliers. Whistleblowing policy. The organisation encourages all its workers, customers and other business partners to report any concerns related to the direct activities, or the supply chains of, the organisation. This includes any circumstances that may give rise to an enhanced risk of slavery or human trafficking. The organisation's whistleblowing procedure is designed to make it easy for workers to make disclosures, without fear of retaliation.Employee code of conduct.

The organisation strives to maintain the highest standards of employee conduct and ethical behaviour when operating nationally, internationally and managing its supply chain.Supplier code of conduct. The organisation is committed to ensuring that its suppliers adhere to the highest standards of ethics. Suppliers are required to demonstrate that they provide safe working conditions where necessary, treat workers with dignity and respect, and act ethically and within the law in their use of labour. The organisation works with suppliers to ensure that they meet the standards of the code and improve their worker's working conditions. However, serious violations of the organisation's supplier code of conduct will lead to the termination of the business relationship.2.1 Policy development and reviewSanctuary Personnel’s policies are established by our directors and senior management team based on advice from HR professionals, industry best practice and legal advice. We review our policies annually or as needed to adapt to changes. 3. Our processes for managing riskIn order to assess the risk of modern slavery, we use the following processes with our suppliers: When engaging with suppliers, where available, we ask for evidence of their processes and policies, including commitments around modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, human rights, and whistle-blowing. When engaging with international suppliers we seek to do so firstly with those approved by the relevant registered body. If this is not possible any candidate needs to pass our own pre-employment checks with verified right to work documentation, identification and qualifications. We conduct audits before entering into a commercial relationship with any business where there is the potential for risk. These audited businesses form the basis of our preferred supplier list.We review the potential for risk at regular intervals, including the possibility of re-auditing a supplier or conducting spot checks.After due consideration, we have not identified any significant risks of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking in our supply chain. However, we continue to be alert to the potential for problems. Additionally, we have taken the following steps to minimise the possibility of any problems:We reserve the right to conduct spot-checks of the businesses who supply us, in order to investigate any complaints.We require the businesses we work with to abide by our code of supplier conduct, address modern slavery concerns in their policies, publish a modern slavery statement.We collaborate with our suppliers in order to improve standards and transparency across our supply chain.Only senior members of staff who have undergone appropriate training for assessing modern slavery risks in the supply chain are authorised to sign contracts and establish commercial relationships in any area where we have identified the potential for risk.We ensure that all of our suppliers are members of appropriate industry bodies and working groups.Our staff are encouraged to bring any concerns they have to the attention of senior management.4. Our performanceAs part of monitoring the performance of Sanctuary Personnel we track the following general key performance indicators:Based on the potential risks we have identified, we have also established the following key performance indicators, which are regularly assessed by our senior management team:The percentage of suppliers who provide their own modern slavery statementsThe effectiveness of enforcement against suppliers who breach policiesThe amount of time spent on audits, re-audits, spot checks, and related due diligenceThe level of modern slavery training and awareness amongst our staffWe carefully consider our indicators in order to ensure that we do not put undue pressure on our suppliers that might increase the potential for risk. 5. Our trainingAll of our staff receive training and support that is appropriate to their role. In particular:Our recruiters, HR professionals, senior management team and staff involved in our procurement and supply chains undertake training courses that include guidance around modern slavery and human trafficking, as well as other wider human rights issues.The organisations modern slavery training covers:Our business's purchasing practices, which influence supply chain conditions and which should therefore be designed to prevent purchases at unrealistically low prices, the use of labour engaged on unrealistically low wages or wages below a country's national minimum wage, or the provision of products by an unrealistic deadline;How to assess the risk of slavery and human trafficking in relation to various aspects of the business, including resources and support available;How to identify the signs of slavery and human trafficking;What initial steps should be taken if slavery or human trafficking is suspected;How to escalate potential slavery or human trafficking issues to the relevant parties within the organisation;What external help is available, for example through the Modern Slavery Helpline, Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority and "Stronger together" initiative;What messages, business incentives or guidance can be given to suppliers and other business partners and contractors to implement anti-slavery policies; andWhat steps the organisation should take if suppliers or contractors do not implement anti-slavery policies in high-risk scenarios, including their removal
