Manandvan Stockwell Modern Slavery Statement

Manandvan Stockwell is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms within our operations and supply chains. This modern slavery statement sets out our approach and the measures we take to ensure workers are treated with dignity and respect. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy against forced labour, child exploitation and any form of coercion.

We publish this anti-slavery statement to be clear that every employee, contractor and supplier must comply with our standards. Our governance framework assigns responsibility to senior management for the implementation of anti-slavery measures. The board reviews progress and our commitments are embedded in company policies, codes of conduct and procurement practices.

Our supplier due diligence encompasses risk-based screening and contractual obligations. We operate a rigorous supplier audits programme to verify compliance with our modern slavery and human trafficking obligations. Audits include site visits, documentation review and interviews with workers to identify signs of exploitation, excessive working hours or withheld pay.

As part of our Modern Slavery Policy, we require suppliers to maintain ethical labour practices and to cascade these expectations through their own supply chains. Where risks are identified, we implement corrective action plans and require timely remediation. In severe cases, we will terminate supplier relationships to protect workers and uphold our zero-tolerance stance.

We provide training and awareness programmes for procurement teams and site managers so they can recognise indicators of modern slavery. Our whistleblowing and reporting channels are accessible and protected; these channels enable confidential reporting by employees, contractors and third parties without fear of retaliation.

To support transparency, we maintain multiple reporting mechanisms including an anonymous hotline and a secure online reporting form. Reports are investigated by an appointed team and escalated where necessary. Our approach balances careful investigation with swift action to ensure the safety of any affected individuals.

We perform ongoing supplier monitoring and regular audits, and we use a risk-based approach to concentrate resources where vulnerability to exploitation is greatest. Key elements of our supplier audit process include:

• Contractual clauses requiring compliance with anti-slavery obligations
• On-site inspections and worker interviews
• Corrective action and follow-up verification

An annual review of this modern slavery and human trafficking statement is conducted to assess effectiveness and to update policies, training and audit scope. We publish outcomes internally and make any necessary policy changes to strengthen our response. The annual review includes assessment of reported incidents, audit findings, remediation outcomes and emerging risks across our supply chains.

We encourage a culture of openness where employees and partners feel empowered to report concerns. All reports are treated seriously; investigations prioritise victim protection and appropriate remedial steps. Our reporting channels are managed to ensure confidentiality and timely action.

We measure effectiveness through audit results, the number of corrective actions closed, training completion rates and the trends in reported concerns. Continuous improvement is driven by lessons learned and by working collaboratively with suppliers, industry groups and stakeholders to raise standards across the sector.

Commitment

Manandvan Stockwell remains resolute in its opposition to modern slavery. This anti-slavery statement reflects our ongoing commitment to ethical sourcing, supplier audits, robust reporting channels and an annual review cycle to ensure sustained progress and accountability.
