Adherence to the Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy
Our Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy reflects our Company’s commitment to the implementation and enforcement of effective systems and controls to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our business and in our supply chains.
TXM ensures that any partnership entered, any supplier used and/or those who work on behalf of or provide a service to TXM will be aware of this Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking policy. Furthermore, they are required to demonstrate adherence to our standards, principles, and values for them to be able to continue with their working relationship in any guise with TXM.
TXM will not use or work with any third party that does not adhere to the principles and standards of this policy.
TXM understand the importance and impact of partnership working. Our suppliers, contractors and other business partners are therefore expected to comply with the same high standards. As part of our processes, we specifically prohibit against the use of forced, compulsory or trafficked labour, or anyone held in slavery or servitude. Our Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy is shared both on our website and distributed to clients and suppliers.
Our Approach
Our approach to tackling the risk of slavery and human trafficking within our business includes:
• Ensuring that our suppliers and contractors are alert to the risks of slavery and human trafficking and communicate to us the steps they are taking to address this issue. Alongside abiding by our Supplier Code of Conduct.
• Following a robust recruitment process including compliance and identity checks.
• Having a direct contact for the workforce to report any concerns regarding slavery and human trafficking. With oversight at Group level through our Management and HR team to whom all employees can address issues of concern.
• Maintaining a whistleblowing policy and procedures to support staff and contractors who raise any concerns.
• Engaging with other organisations and professional bodies to learn and share best practice, including membership of the Recruitment and Employment Confederation and the Association of Professional Staffing Companies.
• Providing the Police force with information on victims of human trafficking with the assurance of a quality focused investigation and appropriate support tailored to each individual needs regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation and cultural or religious background.
