VOLUNTARY SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING STATEMENT

Although we are not required to make a statement under the Modern Slavery Act 2015, we are making this voluntary statement to show our commitment to ethical trading and employment principles.

We are committed to improving our practices to combat modern slavery and human trafficking in our business by taking steps to ensure that our supply chains are free from these and other human rights abuses. This statement outlines the steps we have taken to identify potential modern slavery risks within our business structure and supply chain, as well as the measures we are taking to mitigate these risks.

Our business and supply chains

We conduct our business with integrity and ethics. We strive at all times to provide a safe and healthy working environment for everyone in our team. We take a zero-tolerance approach to slavery, human trafficking, and human rights abuses of any kind. We are committed to ensuring that our business and our supply chain are free from slavery and other human rights abuses.

We work with several suppliers, some of whom are large and established businesses and some of whom are smaller specialists. We are committed to acquiring goods and services for our hotels and restaurants without causing harm to others.

Risk assessment and effective steps

We keep our business and our supply chain under ongoing review. To ensure that they remain free from slavery and human trafficking, we take the following steps:

• Provide training to our key personnel, including those with procurement responsibility, to ensure a high level of understanding about the risks of and how to identify human trafficking and forced labour in our business and our supply chain.
• Review our existing and vet our potential suppliers to ensure that they are also committed to ethical labour practices. We are identifying any key supplier contracts which need additional anti-slavery and human trafficking provisions, and
• We only employ our employees directly or through reputable employment agencies that adhere to our zero-tolerance stance on anti-slavery and human trafficking.

We encourage openness and will support anyone who raises genuine concerns in good faith about slavery or human trafficking or other human rights abuses. Anyone with any information in this regard in connection with our hotels or anywhere in our supply chain is encouraged to let us know this at the earliest opportunity by sending an email to our Chief Executive: Alistair@srsl.co.uk
