Modern Slavery Statement 2022
Introduction
At The Hemp Lifestyle, we are committed to conducting our business with integrity and transparency. We take a strong stance against modern slavery and human trafficking in all its forms. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines the steps we are taking to ensure that our operations and supply chains are free from slavery and exploitation.
Our Commitment
We are dedicated to ensuring that modern slavery and human trafficking do not occur within our organization or in our supply chains. Our commitment is reflected in our policies and procedures, which aim to prevent any form of exploitation or unethical labor practices.
Our Policies
We have implemented several policies to address modern slavery and human trafficking. These include our Anti-Slavery Policy, which outlines our zero-tolerance stance on these issues, and our Code of Conduct, which sets out the standards expected of our employees and suppliers. We also ensure that our recruitment practices comply with legal and ethical standards.
Risk Assessment
We conduct regular risk assessments to identify and evaluate potential risks of modern slavery within our operations and supply chains. These assessments help us understand where risks may arise and allow us to implement appropriate measures to mitigate them.
Due Diligence
As part of our due diligence process, we review and assess our supply chains to ensure that they align with our values and standards. We work closely with our suppliers to ensure they comply with our policies and take appropriate action if any issues are identified.
Training and Awareness
We provide training and resources to our employees to raise awareness about modern slavery and human trafficking. This training helps our team understand the signs of exploitation and how to report any concerns they may have. We also encourage an open and transparent environment where employees feel empowered to speak up.
Reporting and Accountability
We have established clear procedures for reporting any concerns related to modern slavery or human trafficking. Employees, suppliers, and stakeholders are encouraged to report any suspicions or instances of exploitation. All reports will be investigated promptly, and appropriate action will be taken.
Monitoring and Review
We continuously monitor and review our policies and practices to ensure their effectiveness in preventing modern slavery. This includes regular audits of our supply chains and ongoing assessments of our risk management strategies. We are committed to improving our practices and addressing any issues that may arise.
