Modern Slavery Statement — Clapham Man with Van

Clapham Man with Van confirms its clear commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking within its operations and supply chain. This statement reflects the policies and actions taken across our Clapham man & van business to ensure that exploitation has no place in our activity. We set out a zero-tolerance policy toward forced labour, bonded labour, human trafficking and any forms of modern slavery, underpinned by clear governance and staff responsibility.

Our man with van Clapham services are provided on the principle that every worker is treated with dignity and respect. We adopt robust recruitment checks, fair contracts and transparent working practices that align with applicable laws. All employees, contractors and sub-contractors engaged by Clapham removal service are required to comply with our standards and to demonstrate their compliance where requested.

To maintain these standards we operate a zero tolerance approach: any instance or credible allegation of modern slavery will prompt immediate investigation, remedial action and, where appropriate, termination of contracts and referral to authorities. Our Clapham man-and-van teams are trained to recognise signs of exploitation and to escalate concerns without delay.

Supply Chain Due Diligence and Supplier Audits

We understand that the risk of modern slavery often lies beyond direct employees, so our supplier due diligence focuses on procurement, logistics partners and temporary labour providers. Supplier audits form a central part of our approach: we conduct risk-based checks, request documented evidence of labour practices and require contractual assurances that suppliers comply with anti-slavery standards. Supplier audits include on-site inspections, documentation review and follow-up actions if standards are not met.

Our audit programme is tiered by risk: higher-risk suppliers and labour providers receive enhanced scrutiny and more frequent reassessments. Audit findings are tracked, and suppliers are required to implement corrective action plans. Where a supplier is unwilling or unable to meet our minimum standards we will escalate, restrict work or end the relationship to protect workers and our reputation.

We maintain records of due diligence, audit outcomes and remediation activity. These records support ongoing improvement and inform policy updates across the Clapham van and man network. Our procurement teams embed anti-slavery checks into contract awards and renewals to reduce the risk of modern slavery entering our delivery chain.

Reporting Channels, Training and Annual Review

Clapham Man with Van provides clear, confidential reporting channels so employees, workers and third parties can raise concerns safely. We promote a speak-up culture and protect whistleblowers from retaliation. Reporting channels include secure internal escalation routes and established procedures for external referral if criminal activity is suspected. Reports are treated seriously and investigated promptly by trained personnel.

We invest in training for managers, drivers and operational staff to recognise indicators of exploitation and to understand how to use reporting channels. Training is refreshed regularly and forms part of induction for new colleagues. Our expectations are communicated clearly to subcontractors and partners, with contractual obligations and performance measures tied to compliance.

The Board and senior management are accountable for implementation. An annual review evaluates the effectiveness of policies, supplier audits, training, reporting uptake and remediation actions. Key performance indicators are monitored and published internally, and lessons learned drive policy refinement. Continued improvement is sought through stakeholder engagement and alignment with best practice across the removal and man-and-van sector.
