Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

Issued by the Chief Executive Officer

Geldards LLP affirms its unwavering commitment to ethical conduct and integrity in all aspects of its operations. While the firm is not required to publish an annual Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement under the criteria set out in section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, we voluntarily publish this statement to demonstrate our dedication to combating slavery and human trafficking.

Commitment to Ethical Practice

We categorically oppose all forms of slavery and human trafficking. Our objective is to ensure that our business activities and supply chains remain free from such practices. This commitment reflects our professional values and our responsibility to uphold fundamental human rights.

Governance and Approach

Policies and Standards: We maintain robust policies that promote compliance with applicable laws and ethical standards, including those relating to human rights and labour practices.

Supply Chain Oversight: Our supply chain is limited and primarily comprises professional services and office suppliers.  we seek to engage only with organisations that share our commitment to eradicating modern slavery.

Training and Awareness: We provide guidance and resources to our personnel to help identify and report concerns relating to slavery and human trafficking.

Reporting Mechanisms: We encourage anyone connected with our firm to raise concerns regarding potential risks. All reports will be treated seriously and investigated promptly.

Continuous Improvement

We will continue to review and enhance our practices to strengthen our approach to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking. This includes monitoring legislative developments and adopting best practice guidance.
