Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking
Policy — updated 1st August 2026.
Our supply chain includes the supply of goods and materials — including both software products and operational activities — for the effective delivery of services in the utility, construction and civil engineering sectors.
The risks relating to modern slavery and human trafficking can occur anywhere in day-to-day business operations. These may occur through direct employment, sub-contracting or the supply of goods, materials or services in relation to software or operational activities. A high-risk area is goods and material imports from outside the UK and EU. Another area of concern is the allocation of management control required for these factors, which we will continue to monitor and review.
Definition
Modern slavery is defined as a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It takes numerous forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking. These forms share the premise of human deprivation, violating an individual's rights in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain.
MRMS Solutions Ltd will not support or deal with any business or client knowingly involved in modern slavery or human trafficking. Acting ethically is at the forefront of our business operations, and we maintain systems and controls to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking from occurring, both in our business and our supply chains.
Consistent with our disclosure obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015, we are committed to ensuring there is transparency in our own business and throughout our supply chains.
This policy statement applies to all individuals or companies working for us or on our behalf in any capacity, including employees at all levels, directors, officers, agency workers, seconded workers, volunteers, interns, agents, sub-contractors, external consultants, third-party representatives and business partners.
This policy statement does not form part of any employee's contract of employment and we may amend it at any time.
Part of MRMS Solutions Ltd's due diligence is to verify every new employee's right to work in the UK upon the commencement of their employment. We communicate our zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery at the outset of establishing any business relationship, and we require our suppliers and sub-contractors to ensure there is no slavery or human trafficking in their supply chains. As a general rule, we require that suppliers and sub-contractors have an anti-slavery and human trafficking policy in place, or agree to comply with ours if absent.
Our sub-contracting processes specify preventions against the use of forced, compulsory and trafficked labour. This includes anyone held against their will, whether adults or children. These rules are expected to be in place across our suppliers. If concerns are recognised, we will review the relationship and take suitable action.
MRMS Solutions Ltd ensure continuous development in the effectiveness of our due diligence processes throughout our business operations. We will look to progress our Key Performance Indicators in relation to our business activities and relationships with our supply chains.
This policy statement is communicated to all new employees joining our company, ensuring we continuously increase awareness of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chains. During the next year, MRMS Solutions Ltd will carry out additional training and require the same obligation from our suppliers and sub-contractors.
All those working on behalf of MRMS have the responsibility of preventing and reporting any instances of modern slavery. Any activities that might suggest a breach of this policy should be avoided.
If there are any issues or concerns regarding instances of modern slavery in parts of our business or supply chains, these should be brought to the attention of a line manager or director immediately.
A breach of this policy statement will be investigated under the MRMS disciplinary procedure, resulting in the necessary actions being carried out. Evidence of such breaches by employees or businesses will result in the necessary actions, which may entail dismissal.
This statement complies with section 54(1) of the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes the modern slavery and human trafficking statement for MRMS Solutions Ltd for the financial year ended 31st December 2025.
