1. Our Commitment

Platinum Nanny Ltd. has a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery. We are committed to ensuring that modern slavery and human trafficking do not occur in any part of our business or in any of our recruitment and employment processes.

2. Scope of Policy

This policy applies to:

• All staff within Platinum Nanny Ltd., including full-time, part-time, and temporary employees, contractors, and consultants.
• Candidates we place and recruit on behalf of our clients.
• Suppliers and clients with whom we engage in business.

3. Understanding Modern Slavery

Modern slavery includes slavery, servitude, forced labor, and human trafficking. This practice deprives individuals of their freedom, compelling them to work against their will. The Modern Slavery Act 2015 requires businesses to take steps to prevent these crimes in their operations and supply chains.

4. Due Diligence

As part of our efforts to prevent modern slavery, we conduct due diligence in our recruitment and supply chain practices, including:

• Screening Candidates: We perform thorough identity checks, right-to-work verifications, and reference checks to ensure that all candidates we place are free from coercion and exploitation.
• Assessing Suppliers and Clients: We evaluate potential clients and suppliers for their commitment to ethical practices and ensure that they comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015. This includes contract clauses that require compliance with anti-slavery legislation.
• Continuous Monitoring: We regularly review our operations and supply chains to identify and address any risks related to modern slavery.

5. Risk Assessment and Management

We acknowledge that certain roles and industries may be at a higher risk of slavery and human trafficking. To mitigate these risks, we:

• Conduct Regular Risk Assessments: We assess sectors, regions, and job roles where workers may be more vulnerable to exploitation and implement appropriate measures to mitigate these risks.
• Ensure Transparency: We maintain transparency in our recruitment processes and in our relationships with clients, candidates, and suppliers to minimize the risk of modern slavery occurring within our business.

6. Training and Awareness

To ensure that our staff understand and can identify modern slavery risks, we provide training on:

• Recognizing signs of modern slavery and human trafficking.
• Reporting procedures for suspicious activity.
• The company’s responsibilities under the Modern Slavery Act.

Training is mandatory for all employees involved in recruitment and supply chain management.

7. Reporting and Whistleblowing

We encourage employees, candidates, and third parties to report any concerns related to modern slavery. Reports can be made confidentially via our whistleblowing process, and all concerns will be thoroughly investigated. We are committed to ensuring no retaliation against whistleblowers.

If modern slavery is identified in any part of our operations or supply chains, we will take immediate action to address the issue, including reporting it to the relevant authorities.

8. Suppliers and Partners

Platinum Nanny Ltd. expects all clients and suppliers to uphold the same high standards. We require that our clients and suppliers:

• Confirm compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
• Demonstrate that their own operations and supply chains are free from modern slavery.
• Cooperate with any audits or reviews conducted by Platinum Nanny Ltd. to assess their compliance with anti-slavery laws.

9. Continuous Improvement

We are committed to continuously improving our policies and practices to combat modern slavery. We regularly review and update this policy to reflect changes in legislation and best practices. Our due diligence processes and risk assessments are also periodically reviewed to ensure they remain effective.

10. Governance

This policy is overseen by senior management at Platinum Nanny Ltd. and will be reviewed annually, or more frequently as necessary. Any significant breaches of this policy will be escalated to the board.
