Modern Slavery Statement

1. Our Commitment

We recognise that modern slavery is a serious crime and a fundamental violation of human rights.

Ford Environmental Ltd is committed to acting ethically and responsibly in its business relationships and expects the same standards from those who work with or supply services to us.

2. Our Business

Ford Environmental Ltd provides asbestos removal and environmental services to domestic, commercial and industrial clients.

Our work may involve employees, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, waste-management providers and other specialist service providers.

3. Our Expectations

We expect anyone working for or on behalf of Ford Environmental Ltd to operate lawfully and ethically.

This includes an expectation that:

• Employment is freely chosen
• Forced or compulsory labour is not used
• Human trafficking is not tolerated
• Workers are treated with dignity and respect
• Applicable employment laws are followed
• Child labour is not unlawfully used
• Workers are not subjected to threats or coercion

4. Supply Chain

We aim to work with reputable suppliers and contractors that operate responsibly and comply with applicable law.

Where appropriate, we may consider ethical and labour practices when selecting or reviewing suppliers, contractors and other business partners.

5. Risk Awareness

We recognise that modern slavery risks can exist within construction, waste management, transport, manufacturing, temporary labour and wider supply chains.

We therefore remain alert to indicators that could suggest exploitation, coercion, trafficking or unlawful working practices.

6. Reporting Concerns

Employees, contractors, suppliers and other parties are encouraged to raise concerns where they suspect modern slavery, exploitation or unethical labour practices connected with our business.

Genuine concerns raised in good faith will be taken seriously.

7. Responding to Concerns

Where a credible concern is identified, Ford Environmental Ltd may investigate the circumstances and take appropriate action.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include reviewing a supplier or contractor relationship, requesting further information, suspending work or referring concerns to the appropriate authorities.

8. Responsibility

Responsibility for maintaining appropriate standards in relation to modern slavery rests with the management of Ford Environmental Ltd, supported by employees, contractors and suppliers.

9. Review

We may review this statement periodically as our business, workforce, suppliers and operations develop.

Our approach will continue to be proportionate to the size, nature and risk profile of our business.

10. Legal Position

This statement reflects Ford Environmental Ltd's commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking.

Where the company becomes legally required to publish a formal slavery and human trafficking statement under applicable UK legislation, the statement will be reviewed and updated as necessary to meet those requirements.
