CSA Catapult has a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all its business dealings and relationships. CSA Catapult implements and enforces effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in its business or supply chain.
These measures include:
1. implementing and maintaining a Modern Slavery Policy which is easily accessible by all CSA Catapult staff;
2. implementing and maintaining a Whistleblowing Policy to ensure our business acts ethically in protecting whistle blowers;
3. providing annual modern slavery and whistleblowing training to all CSA Catapult staff and directors to ensure a proper level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chains;
4. conducting due diligence on all potential suppliers as part of CSA Catapult’s supplier selection and onboarding procedure, and on existing suppliers at regular intervals; and
5. incorporating specific provisions into CSA Catapult’s contractual arrangements with third party suppliers which require those suppliers, and any other entities in their supply chains, to: (a) comply with all applicable anti-slavery and human trafficking laws, regulations and codes; and (b) not engage in any activity, practice or conduct which would constitute an offence under sections 1, 2 or 4, of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 if such activity, practice or conduct were carried out in the UK.
CSA Catapult expects all of its agents, contractors, suppliers, consultants, third-party representatives and other business partners to apply similarly high standards to ensure modern slavery is not taking place within their businesses or supply chains.
