Manandvan South London Modern Slavery Statement

This Modern Slavery Statement is issued by Manandvan South London to set out our commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking across our operations and supply chain. As Manandvan - South London, we recognise the moral and legal imperative to identify, assess, and address any risk of forced labour, bonded labour, servitude, or exploitation. This statement applies to all employees, contractors and suppliers operating under the Manandvan (South London) banner.

Our Commitments and Zero-Tolerance Policy

We maintain a zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery. Manandvan South-London will not knowingly engage with, or benefit from, suppliers or partners who practice exploitation. All recruitment, employment and contracting practices are designed to protect workers' rights and dignity, ensuring lawful pay, voluntary work, and freedom of movement.

This modern slavery and human trafficking policy is embedded in our corporate governance. The Board and senior management set the tone, allocating resources to due diligence and remediation. We require managers to escalate any suspected incidents immediately through our reporting channels and to cooperate fully with investigations.

Supplier Standards and Audit Programme

Our supplier expectations are clear: compliance with labour laws, transparent recruitment practices and respect for human rights. Manandvan S. London operates a targeted audit programme to verify adherence to these standards. Audits combine desktop reviews, documentary checks and site visits where appropriate.

We conduct supplier audits on a risk-based cycle. Key features include:

• Pre-qualification checks during supplier on-boarding.
• Periodic compliance audits prioritised by risk factors including geography, sector and sub-contracting complexity.
• Corrective action plans with clear timelines and monitoring for improvement.

Where non-compliance is found, we require prompt remediation. For persistent, severe breaches, we reserve the right to terminate contracts and pursue third-party investigations. We also collaborate with industry peers to share best practice and reduce the risk of modern slavery across shared supply chains.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

Manandvan South London maintains multiple confidential reporting channels for employees, contractors and third parties to raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Reports can be made anonymously and are treated with strict confidentiality. All allegations are triaged and investigated by trained personnel.

Our reporting mechanism emphasises:

• Confidentiality and protection from retaliation.
• Independent review of serious allegations.
• Transparent outcomes and, where necessary, remedial action for victims.

Training and internal awareness programmes support our reporting framework. Staff receive regular training on recognising indicators of modern slavery and on how to escalate concerns. We encourage a culture where raising concerns is seen as a responsible and valued action.

Due Diligence, Monitoring and Annual Review

Our due diligence process includes risk assessments, supplier audits and integration of ethical criteria into procurement decisions. The annual review assesses the effectiveness of policies, audit outcomes, training completion rates and remediation casework. Findings are reported to senior leadership to inform continuous improvement.

Actions taken following annual reviews may include strengthened contractual clauses, increased audit frequency for higher-risk suppliers, targeted training and collaborative remediation projects. We document progress and adapt our approach to emerging risks.

In conclusion, this Modern Slavery Statement for Manandvan South London reflects our ongoing commitment to eradicate modern slavery from our business and supply chain. We maintain a zero-tolerance approach, robust supplier audits, clear reporting channels and a formal annual review process to ensure continuous vigilance and improvement.
