Modern Slavery Statement — Skip Hire Holborn Commitment

Skip Hire Holborn is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. This modern slavery statement outlines our approach, procedures and ongoing commitments. We operate with a zero-tolerance policy to exploitation of any kind and expect the same high standards from all partners engaged in skip hire services or waste management across Holborn and surrounding areas.

We recognise that risks can exist both within our direct workforce and within third-party suppliers who provide equipment, transport, or labour. Our Holborn skip hire service policies require that all workers are treated lawfully, paid fairly and provided safe conditions. Every employee and contractor must understand that exploitation will not be tolerated and that breaches will result in immediate action, including contract termination.

Our anti-slavery measures include supplier due diligence and contractual obligations. When engaging subcontractors and vendors for skip hire in Holborn, we carry out risk-based assessments prior to onboarding. These checks include verification of labour practices, right-to-work documentation, and where relevant, direct supplier interviews and reference checks to ensure compliance with employment law and ethical sourcing standards.

We implement a programme of supplier audits and targeted inspections. Audits are scheduled annually or more frequently for higher-risk suppliers. The audit process comprises documentation review, site visits when relevant, and follow-up action plans. Holborn skip hire partners are required to demonstrate continuous improvement; audit findings are documented and escalated to senior management for resolution.

Our reporting channels are clear and accessible. Any concerns about modern slavery, forced labour or human trafficking can be reported through internal confidential channels. Staff and contractors working with Skip Hire - Holborn are encouraged to raise issues without fear of retaliation. Reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly and, where substantiated, lead to remedial actions and potential termination of business relationships.

We provide training to staff and relevant suppliers to ensure awareness of signs of exploitation and correct reporting procedures. Training materials include scenario-based learning and an emphasis on recognising indicators of forced labour in the waste management sector. The training supports our wider company values and helps sustain ethical standards across all Holborn skip hire operations.

Our zero-tolerance stance is reinforced through governance and oversight. The board and senior management regularly review compliance with our policy and authorise resources for enforcement. Skip Hire Holborn will not tolerate non-compliance and will take decisive action, including legal steps if necessary, to protect vulnerable workers and maintain integrity in our supply chain.

We maintain formalised reporting and remediation protocols. When an allegation is raised, an impartial investigation team is appointed, actions are documented, and victims are supported through appropriate referrals and remediation where needed. Contractors found to be in breach of our anti-slavery commitments are subject to suspension or contract termination, with recovery of costs where permitted.

Continuous improvement and annual review

Annual policy review and future priorities

We conduct an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement to evaluate the effectiveness of our measures and to update procedures to respond to emerging risks. The review includes performance from supplier audits, reported incidents, corrective actions taken, and training completion rates. Priorities for the next year are set out following this review and communicated to staff and supply chain partners.

• Prevent: Strengthen pre-contract checks for new suppliers.
• Detect: Expand audit coverage for high-risk routes and contractors.
• Respond: Improve remediation pathways and victim support.

In conclusion, our Holborn skip hire operations are governed by clear principles: prevention of exploitation, rigorous supplier audits, accessible reporting channels, and a commitment to annual review and improvement. We will continue to evolve our approach to ensure that Skip Hire Holborn remains vigilant and proactive in combating modern slavery throughout our business and the wider waste management sector.
