Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking Statement — Skip Hire Marylebone

Skip Hire Marylebone is committed to a strict zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking in all areas of our operations. This statement describes how our Marylebone skip hire services and associated supply networks identify, prevent and respond to any form of exploitation. We set clear expectations that no worker, whether permanent, temporary or contracted, should be subjected to forced labour, debt bondage, or any coercive practice.

Our policy applies to all employees and to all business activities related to skip hire in Marylebone, including waste collection, transport, disposal and recycling operations. We ensure managers and procurement teams are aware of the legislative framework and our internal standards. Through regular training and internal communications we foster a culture where social responsibility is integral to everyday decisions.

Zero tolerance is enforced through practical measures. These include stringent recruitment checks, mandatory right-to-work verification, and transparent payroll practices. We also maintain a set of core principles to guide contractors and partners:

• All workers must be hired freely and with informed consent.
• Wages and hours must be compliant with applicable laws and industry norms.
• Workers must be free to leave employment after reasonable notice without penalty.

Our Approach to Procurement and Supplier Management

In the operation of Marylebone skip hire and broader skip hire Marylebone activities we integrate human rights due diligence into procurement. Suppliers are evaluated during onboarding and periodically thereafter. We require contractual commitments from suppliers to comply with our anti-slavery standards and expect transparency in labour practices throughout the supply chain.

We carry out supplier audits that combine documentation review, self-assessment questionnaires and on-site inspections where risk indicators are present. Audit findings are used to guide corrective action plans. For higher-risk suppliers, we deploy third-party auditors and insist on remedial timelines. Failure to remedy serious breaches may lead to contract termination.

Reporting Channels and Protection for Whistleblowers

Our reporting channels are designed to be accessible, confidential and supportive. Workers, contractors and the public can report concerns through an internal incident reporting system, and via independent, anonymous reporting mechanisms administered by our compliance team. Reports are investigated promptly, and we prohibit any retaliation against individuals who raise concerns in good faith. Allegations are assessed, escalated to senior management and, where necessary, referred to relevant authorities.

We maintain ongoing training and awareness programmes tailored to operational teams, site supervisors and procurement staff to ensure everyone involved with Marylebone skip hire recognises the signs of exploitation. Records of training, audits and corrective actions are maintained to evidence our due diligence. Continuous improvement is driven by internal metrics and external benchmarking.

Each year we perform a formal review of our modern slavery procedures and outcomes. This annual review evaluates the effectiveness of supplier audits, the sufficiency of reporting channels, training reach and the responsiveness of remedial measures. Results are used to refine risk assessments, update contractual terms and prioritise supplier engagement where the risk of abuse is greatest.

In conclusion, Skip Hire Marylebone and its operations are committed to eliminating modern slavery from our services and supply chains. Our zero-tolerance policy, robust supplier audits, clear reporting channels and annual review process together form a practical framework to prevent abuse. We will continue to monitor progress, act on instances of concern and strengthen protections for workers connected to Marylebone skip hire and related activities.
