- That living wages are paid
- That working hours are not excessive
- That no discrimination is practised

This Policy is supported by the Modern Slavery Policy Statement and Anti-Bribery Policy. We ensure that all staff are aware of our commitment to this policy which will be reviewed on an annual basis.
