Draft template — not yet legally reviewed
The structure of this document is in place, but every section below is placeholder text. Nothing here has been drafted or approved by a legal adviser, nothing on this page is binding, and none of it may be relied on. The final wording will be supplied by NE Project Solutions’ legal adviser before launch. Each section lists what that wording has to establish.
1. About this statement
Placeholder — the wording for this section has not been written and will not be written by us. See the notice above.
To be supplied by the client
- The financial year the statement covers.
- Whether the business meets the £36m turnover threshold under s.54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. If it does not, the statement is voluntary and must say so rather than imply a statutory obligation.
2. Our business & supply chain
Placeholder — the wording for this section has not been written and will not be written by us. See the notice above.
To be supplied by the client
- Structure, sectors and geographies of operation.
- How labour is sourced — direct, through umbrella companies, through second-tier suppliers — since that is where the risk sits for a staffing business.
3. Policies
Placeholder — the wording for this section has not been written and will not be written by us. See the notice above.
To be supplied by the client
- The policies actually adopted: modern slavery, whistleblowing, recruitment and vetting, supplier code of conduct.
- Where workers and suppliers can read them.
4. Due diligence & risk assessment
Placeholder — the wording for this section has not been written and will not be written by us. See the notice above.
To be supplied by the client
- The checks run on workers — right to work, identity, bank-account duplication, address duplication — and on suppliers.
- How risk is assessed and escalated, and what has been found or acted on.
5. Training & effectiveness
Placeholder — the wording for this section has not been written and will not be written by us. See the notice above.
To be supplied by the client
- Training given to consultants and compliance staff.
- The measures used to judge whether any of it is working.
6. Approval
Placeholder — the wording for this section has not been written and will not be written by us. See the notice above.
To be supplied by the client
- Board approval date and the name of the approving director. A s.54 statement is not valid without it, and it must be signed.
