Purpose

UAV Surveys is committed to conducting its business ethically, with integrity and in accordance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015. We have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour and human trafficking in all aspects of our business and supply chain.

Although the nature and size of our business presents a low risk of modern slavery, we recognise our responsibility to remain vigilant and to ensure that our operations and business relationships uphold the highest ethical standards.

Policy Statement

UAV Surveys is committed to:

  • Conducting business honestly, fairly and transparently.

  • Complying with all applicable legislation relating to modern slavery and human trafficking.

  • Taking reasonable steps to identify and minimise the risk of modern slavery within our operations and supply chain.

  • Working with suppliers, subcontractors and business partners who share our commitment to ethical business practices.

  • Investigating any concerns regarding unethical labour practices promptly and appropriately.

Our Commitment

We will not knowingly:

  • Employ or engage individuals who are subject to forced, bonded or compulsory labour.

  • Conduct business with organisations that are known to participate in modern slavery or human trafficking.

  • Permit any form of child labour that is unlawful or exploitative.

  • Tolerate physical abuse, coercion, intimidation or threats against workers.

We expect all individuals working on our behalf to be employed voluntarily, treated fairly and paid in accordance with applicable employment legislation.

Supply Chain

Where reasonably practicable, UAV Surveys will seek to work with suppliers and subcontractors who:

  • Operate in compliance with applicable employment laws.

  • Treat workers fairly and with dignity.

  • Provide safe working conditions.

  • Pay lawful wages.

  • Prohibit forced labour and human trafficking.

Where concerns arise regarding a supplier's practices, we reserve the right to request further information, require corrective action or terminate the business relationship where appropriate.

All employees, contractors and persons working on behalf of UAV Surveys are expected to:

  • Conduct business ethically and with integrity.

  • Remain alert to indicators of modern slavery or human trafficking.

  • Report any genuine concerns immediately.

  • Support the implementation of this policy.

Management is responsible for promoting awareness of this policy and ensuring appropriate action is taken where concerns are identified.

Reporting Concerns

Any person who suspects modern slavery, forced labour or human trafficking in connection with our business or supply chain is encouraged to report the matter immediately.

Reports will be treated seriously and investigated appropriately. Individuals raising genuine concerns in good faith will not suffer retaliation or detrimental treatment.

Breach of this Policy

Any employee, contractor or supplier found to be in breach of this policy may be subject to disciplinary action, termination of contract or cessation of the business relationship, as appropriate.

Where criminal activity is suspected, UAV Surveys will cooperate fully with the relevant authorities.

This policy will be reviewed periodically to ensure it remains effective and reflects current legislation and best practice.

UAV Surveys is committed to maintaining an ethical business, respecting human rights and ensuring that modern slavery has no place within our organisation or supply chain.
