Modern Slavery Statement for Collierrow Storage
Collierrow Storage is committed to conducting business with integrity, respect, and accountability. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking across our operations and supply chain. Our zero-tolerance approach applies to every part of the business, including recruitment, procurement, and contractor management.
We recognise that modern slavery can take many forms and may occur in complex supply networks. For that reason, our Collierrow Storage modern slavery commitment is built on prevention, detection, and swift action. We expect all employees, suppliers, and business partners to act ethically and comply with applicable labour and human rights laws. Any breach of this standard is treated as a serious matter.
Our policy framework requires all staff to follow clear due diligence procedures when engaging suppliers or service providers. This includes reviewing labour practices, employment conditions, and any risks associated with high-risk sectors or geographies. The Collierrow storage slavery statement is embedded in our procurement decisions so that ethical conduct remains central to commercial relationships.
We carry out supplier audits on a risk-based basis to verify compliance with our expectations. These audits may include document checks, worker welfare reviews, site visits, and follow-up assessments where concerns arise. If a supplier is unable or unwilling to meet our standards, we may require corrective action, suspend the relationship, or terminate the contract. This process supports our wider anti-slavery controls.
To strengthen oversight, Collierrow Storage provides multiple reporting channels for raising concerns in confidence. Employees and third parties are encouraged to report suspected misconduct, unsafe practices, or indicators of exploitation through internal management routes and formal compliance processes. All reports are handled seriously, investigated promptly, and managed with appropriate confidentiality and protection against retaliation.
We also require managers and procurement teams to remain alert to warning signs such as restricted movement, withholding of documents, unusual recruitment fees, or unclear employment arrangements. Training and awareness activities help staff understand how to identify and escalate concerns. This helps ensure the modern slavery policy is not only written but actively applied in day-to-day operations.
Our governance arrangements support consistent oversight of the Collierrow Storage anti-slavery statement. Senior leadership reviews risk trends, audit findings, and any reported issues so that appropriate corrective measures can be implemented. Where needed, we work with suppliers to improve standards through time-bound remediation plans, while maintaining a firm expectation of compliance.
We believe meaningful prevention depends on cooperation across the business and supply chain. Accordingly, modern slavery clauses are included in relevant contracts, and suppliers are expected to confirm their commitment to lawful and ethical labour practices. Our due diligence approach is proportionate to the level of risk and is updated as our operations evolve.
This statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains effective, accurate, and aligned with current legal and ethical expectations. The annual review considers emerging risks, audit outcomes, incident reports, and any improvements needed to our controls. Through this process, Collierrow Storage reinforces its commitment to responsible trading and the ongoing prevention of modern slavery in all forms.
