Our position
We have zero tolerance for slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour, and human trafficking in any part of our operations or supply chains.
We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains.
Our business and supply chains
Mazel Grand HMS is a knowledge-services company operating in data processing, IT consultancy, and software publishing (SIC 58290, 62020, 63110).
- Organisational structure: we are a UK-based company with a small direct team working remotely and in our London office.
- Client base: we serve business clients across Europe and internationally, primarily through direct engagements.
- Supply chain: our supply chain is limited and consists primarily of software vendors, cloud hosting providers, and professional service providers.
- Geographic focus: our operations and primary supply chain are based in the UK and European jurisdictions with strong labour protections.
Risk assessment
We regularly assess the risk of modern slavery in our operations and supply chains. Due to our business model and supply chain composition, we consider our exposure to modern slavery risk to be low.
- Our direct workforce is employed under UK employment law with clear contracts and fair remuneration.
- Our primary suppliers are established technology companies with their own compliance programmes.
- We do not operate in high-risk sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing, or construction.
- We do not use temporary labour agencies or subcontract work to third-party labour providers.
Due diligence steps
Despite our low risk profile, we take the following steps to identify and mitigate modern slavery risks:
- Supplier assessment: before engaging new suppliers, we assess their compliance with labour standards and their own modern slavery statements where applicable.
- Supplier Code: we require all suppliers to adhere to our Supplier Code, which explicitly prohibits forced labour and human trafficking.
- Contractual clauses: where proportionate, we include contractual clauses requiring suppliers to comply with applicable modern slavery legislation.
- Monitoring: we monitor supplier performance and respond promptly to any allegations of non-compliance.
- Review: we review our due diligence processes annually and update them as our business evolves.
Our Supplier Code
Our Supplier Code sets mandatory expectations for all suppliers and partners:
- Prohibition of forced labour: suppliers must not use forced, compulsory, or trafficked labour.
- Freedom of association: workers must have the right to freedom of association and collective bargaining.
- Safe working conditions: suppliers must provide safe and healthy working conditions.
- Fair remuneration: workers must be paid at least the minimum wage and any legally mandated benefits.
- No child labour: suppliers must comply with applicable laws on minimum working age and child labour.
- No discrimination: suppliers must not discriminate on grounds of race, religion, gender, or other protected characteristics.
Training and awareness
We ensure our team understands the risks of modern slavery and their responsibilities:
- Induction training: all new team members receive an introduction to our modern slavery obligations and this statement.
- Regular updates: we provide periodic updates on modern slavery risks and compliance expectations.
- Procurement awareness: staff involved in supplier selection are trained to identify modern slavery risk indicators.
- Reporting channels: all staff are aware of how to raise concerns through our Speak-Up Policy.
