Man With Van Westminster is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps we take to prevent modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitative working practices across our operations and supply chains. We recognise that even a local removals and delivery service can be exposed to risks within labour sourcing, subcontracting, and procurement, so we maintain a clear zero-tolerance policy toward any form of modern slavery.

Our approach applies to every part of the business, including office administration, logistics coordination, and vehicle-based work. We expect all employees, contractors, and business partners associated with Man With Van Westminster to uphold lawful and ethical standards. Any breach of this commitment is treated as a serious matter, and we act promptly where concerns arise. By promoting transparency and accountability, the Man With Van Westminster removals team aims to reduce the possibility of abuse in both direct and indirect operations.

We also make sure that our recruitment and employment practices support fair treatment. Workers are verified appropriately, records are reviewed carefully, and no person is allowed to work under coercion, deception, or threats. The Westminster van service does not accept any practice that could conceal exploitation, whether it occurs in hiring, pay arrangements, hours, or subcontracted labour. This commitment is reinforced through training, internal oversight, and senior management responsibility.

A key part of this statement is our supplier management process. We conduct proportionate supplier audits and due diligence checks to identify risks before and during the commercial relationship. These reviews may include screening of labour practices, verification of right-to-work controls, and examination of documentation where relevant. If a supplier fails to meet our standards, the relationship is reviewed, corrective action may be required, and continued non-compliance can lead to termination of the arrangement.

We expect suppliers connected with Man With Van Westminster to share our values and provide accurate information about their own workforce and subcontractors. The Man With Van Westminster modern slavery policy is communicated as part of our procurement expectations, ensuring that ethical conduct is not optional. Where a supply chain contains elevated risk, we apply additional checks and monitor the situation more closely to protect vulnerable workers.

To support effective oversight, we keep records of our assessments, findings, and actions taken. This helps us build a clearer picture of risk over time and strengthens our ability to respond quickly. The Westminster moving service treats supplier assurance as an ongoing process rather than a one-time exercise, because ethical standards must be maintained consistently, not simply declared.

Reporting concerns is an important safeguard. Employees, suppliers, and other relevant parties are encouraged to raise any suspicion of exploitation, unsafe labour conditions, or unethical recruitment practices through our internal reporting channels. Reports are handled sensitively and investigated promptly. No one will suffer retaliation for raising a genuine concern, and confidentiality is preserved wherever possible. This reporting framework helps us identify issues early and take practical corrective action.

All allegations are assessed fairly, and appropriate measures are taken based on the facts available. This may include further investigation, suspension of work with a supplier, escalation to management, or referral to the relevant authorities when required. The Man With Van Westminster removals business understands that effective reporting must be trusted, accessible, and supported by clear accountability.

We review this statement annually to ensure it remains current, effective, and aligned with legal expectations and operational realities. The annual review considers changes in our business activities, supplier risk levels, staff awareness, and any incidents or concerns raised during the year. Improvements identified through the review are then built into our procedures. Through this process, Man With Van Westminster reaffirms its commitment to ethical conduct, responsible sourcing, and the prevention of modern slavery in all forms.
