Modern Slavery Statement for Pimlico Man And Van

Pimlico Man And Van is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the actions we take to prevent slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking in any part of our operations. We recognise that a zero-tolerance policy is essential to protecting people and ensuring that our business practices remain ethical and lawful.

As a moving and transport service provider, Pimlico Man & Van works with a range of suppliers, contractors, and service partners. While our direct workforce is small, we understand that modern slavery risks can exist anywhere in a supply chain. For that reason, our approach to Pimlico Man and Van modern slavery compliance focuses on prevention, transparency, and accountability at every level.

We expect all employees, subcontractors, and business partners to uphold the same standards. Any form of exploitation is unacceptable, whether it occurs in recruitment, labour provision, warehousing, transport support, or ancillary services. Our commitment is reflected in our policies, training, and day-to-day decision-making, ensuring that modern slavery prevention remains a core part of how Pimlico Man And Van operates.

Our Policy and Governance

The company maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery in all forms. This means we will not knowingly engage with any person or organisation involved in exploitation, coercion, debt bondage, child labour, or trafficking. Where concerns arise, they are treated seriously and investigated promptly. If a breach is confirmed, we will take decisive action, which may include ending a relationship or contract.

Management is responsible for overseeing compliance and making sure our standards are understood across the business. We review hiring practices, subcontracting arrangements, and procurement decisions to reduce the risk of hidden labour exploitation. By embedding ethical checks into routine operations, Pimlico Man And Van strengthens its ability to identify and address risks early.

All team members are encouraged to behave responsibly and to remain alert to warning signs such as unusual working conditions, restricted movement, withheld identity documents, or signs of intimidation. Our policy is not symbolic; it is part of the company culture and supports a safer, more respectful environment for everyone connected to Pimlico Man and Van.

Supplier Due Diligence and Audits

We recognise that supplier relationships can present the greatest risk. Therefore, supplier audits are a key control in our modern slavery prevention framework. We assess suppliers based on the nature of their business, geographic exposure, labour practices, and ability to demonstrate compliance with ethical standards. Higher-risk suppliers may be subject to more frequent review.

Our due diligence may include written declarations, document checks, evidence of labour-rights policies, and confirmation of responsible recruitment practices. Where appropriate, we request information about subcontractors and labour providers to ensure that our standards extend beyond the immediate supplier. This approach helps Pimlico Man And Van build a more transparent and reliable supply chain.

When concerns are identified during a supplier review, we work to understand the issue and seek corrective action. If improvements are not made within a reasonable timeframe, or if serious concerns are found, the business relationship may be suspended or terminated. This consistent process supports the integrity of Pimlico Man And Van and reinforces our ethical expectations.

Reporting Channels, Training, and Review

We encourage anyone connected with the company to raise concerns about possible modern slavery through internal reporting channels. Reports may be made to management confidentially and will be handled with sensitivity. We aim to create a culture in which people feel safe to speak up without fear of retaliation, blame, or disadvantage. Concerns are reviewed promptly and escalated where necessary.

Awareness training and internal communications help ensure that workers understand what modern slavery looks like and how to respond if they suspect it. We make it clear that all reports will be taken seriously and that safeguarding people is more important than commercial convenience. This protects the reputation and responsibility of Pimlico Man & Van while supporting ethical conduct.

This statement will be reviewed annually to confirm its effectiveness and to reflect changes in legislation, operations, or supply chain risks. Each annual review considers audit findings, reported concerns, supplier performance, and any lessons learned. By updating our approach regularly, Pimlico Man And Van ensures that its commitment to preventing modern slavery remains active, practical, and continually improving.
