Modern Slavery Statement — Manandvan Fulham
Manandvan Fulham publishes this Modern Slavery Statement to affirm our zero-tolerance policy toward slavery, forced labour and human trafficking in any part of our business or supply chain. We are committed to preventing modern slavery and to acting ethically and responsibly. This anti-slavery statement outlines responsibilities, monitoring and the steps we take as a responsible employer and buyer in our sector.

Our Policy Framework and Supplier Obligations
Our modern slavery and human trafficking statement requires all suppliers and contractors to adhere to clear standards. Key points include:
- Compliance with laws on forced labour, child labour and worker rights.
- Prohibition of withholding identity documents or restricting freedom of movement.
- Payment of legal wages and transparent working hours and conditions.
Due Diligence and Supply Chain Mapping
We carry out risk-based due diligence on direct suppliers and higher-risk tiers. Our procurement teams map supply chains and identify areas where exploitation risks are heightened. We apply a combination of desk-based checks, contractual clauses and site visits to ensure suppliers meet our anti-slavery statement requirements.
Supplier audits form a core part of our monitoring approach. Audits are scheduled according to risk level: high-risk suppliers may be audited annually, medium-risk suppliers every two years, and low-risk suppliers monitored via periodic reviews. Audit findings lead to corrective action plans, and persistent non-compliance can result in contract termination.
Our supplier assurance program includes:
- Pre-contract assessments and modern slavery clauses in contracts.
- On-site and remote audits, worker interviews and document checks.
- Training and capacity building for suppliers to meet standards.
We maintain multiple reporting channels to enable confidential escalation of concerns. Workers, suppliers or third parties can raise issues without fear of retaliation. These channels include anonymous reporting mechanisms, escalation to senior compliance leads and clear procedures to investigate allegations promptly and fairly.

Reporting and Remediation
When concerns are raised we follow a staged response: acknowledging the report, conducting an impartial investigation, implementing immediate protective measures for affected individuals and delivering remedial actions where exploitation is identified. Remediation may include repayment of withheld wages, medical support, safe repatriation or working with local authorities and NGOs to secure longer-term solutions.
Training, governance and continuous improvement are embedded across Manandvan Fulham. Our board and senior leaders review modern slavery risks regularly and receive updates on audit outcomes and remediation progress. We deliver mandatory training for staff in procurement, HR and operations, and provide targeted guidance for managers who engage suppliers directly.
The annual review of this modern slavery statement is integral to our governance. Each year we evaluate the effectiveness of our policies, update risk assessments, refine audit protocols and publish an updated statement to reflect progress and new actions. Performance metrics and key performance indicators include:
- Number of supplier audits completed and corrective actions closed.
- Incidents reported, investigated and remediated.
- Training completion rates across relevant teams.
Manandvan Fulham expects all employees, suppliers and partners to uphold the principles set out in this modern slavery policy. We will continue to strengthen our controls, work collaboratively with stakeholders and drive transparency to eradicate slavery and human trafficking from our operations and supply chains.
