ANTI-SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING POLICY

Slavery and human trafficking remains a hidden blight on our global society. We all have a responsibly to be alert to the risks, however small, in our business and in the wider supply chain.

ORGANISATION STRUCTURE

The MSQ Partners Group of companies’ primary business is the provision of marketing communication consultancy and services including advertising, public relations, design and digital marketing. The Group has its head office in the UK and has an annual turnover in excess of £80m.

OUR SUPPLY CHAIN

As a service company operating in the UK, with limited production output, our supply chain is very simple. The majority of our work force are permanent employees, and we have a limited number of external suppliers or contractors in our supply process.
Respecting human rights in the supply chain is ultimately our suppliers’ responsibility. However, the limited nature of our supply chain makes it relatively easy to play an active role in supplier development and we have adopted various means to communicate our expectations to our suppliers.

OUR POLICY ON SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING

We are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in any part of our business or in our supply chains. This policy reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains.
Staff are expected to report concerns and management are expected to act upon them.

HOW WE MITIGATE RISK OF SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING

• A commitment to paying the UK Living wage as a minimum
• Labour and employment monitoring and the use of formal payroll systems
• Training and raising awareness of the issue through Director briefings
• Where possible we build long standing relationships with local suppliers and contractors and make clear our expectations of business behaviour including having in place suitable anti-slavery and human trafficking policies
• Assessing risk related to human trafficking and forced labour within our supply base
• Visiting supplier premises to monitor compliance with standards and expectations
• Systems to encourage the reporting of concerns and the protection of whistle blowers

This statement is made pursuant to Section 54, Part 6 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and sets out the steps the Company has taken to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in our supply chains or in any part of our business.
This statement has been approved by our Board of Directors, who will review and update it as necessary on an annual basis.
