Modern Slavery Statement for Emersonpark Storage

Emersonpark Storage is committed to conducting business with integrity, responsibility, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent forced labour, human trafficking, debt bondage, child labour, and other forms of exploitation within our operations and supply chains. Our approach reflects a zero-tolerance policy toward any practice that compromises dignity, freedom, or fair treatment.

As a storage business, Emersonpark Storage recognises that risk may exist across procurement, facilities management, maintenance, security, logistics, and outsourced services. We therefore apply due diligence to identify, assess, and address modern slavery risks in a practical and proportionate way. We expect our employees, contractors, and business partners to uphold the same ethical standards and to act in line with applicable laws and our internal policies.

Our Emersonpark Storage Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed as part of our wider commitment to ethical governance. We focus on prevention through clear standards, staff awareness, and supplier accountability. If risks are identified, we act quickly to investigate, remediate, and, where necessary, terminate relationships that do not meet our requirements.

Zero-Tolerance Policy

Emersonpark Storage maintains a zero-tolerance policy for all forms of modern slavery. We do not accept any circumstance in which individuals are coerced, controlled, threatened, or deprived of their freedom of choice. This policy applies to everyone working for or with Emersonpark Storage, including full-time staff, temporary workers, agency personnel, and third-party providers.

To support this policy, we provide internal guidance so that managers and teams can recognise warning signs such as withholding of identity documents, unsafe working conditions, excessive recruitment fees, restricted movement, or signs of intimidation. Our stance is clear: suspected exploitation will not be ignored, and proven misconduct will lead to decisive action.

Supplier Audits and Due Diligence

We carry out supplier audits and assessments to help ensure that our supply chain remains aligned with our expectations. The Emersonpark Storage slavery compliance process includes reviewing supplier contracts, evaluating labour practices, and checking for evidence of responsible recruitment and employment standards. Higher-risk suppliers may be subject to enhanced scrutiny and more frequent reviews.

Where appropriate, supplier audits may include document reviews, worker interviews, site inspections, and confirmation of subcontracting practices. We seek to work only with organisations that can demonstrate transparency and control over their own supply chains. If a supplier fails to meet our standards, we request corrective action and monitor progress. Continued non-compliance may result in suspension or termination of the relationship.

Our procurement teams are encouraged to consider modern slavery risk at the earliest stage of supplier selection. By incorporating ethical criteria into sourcing decisions, Emersonpark Storage aims to reduce exposure to exploitation and encourage responsible business conduct across our network.

Reporting Channels

Emersonpark Storage provides clear reporting channels so concerns can be raised promptly and in good faith. Employees and relevant third parties are encouraged to report suspicions of slavery, trafficking, exploitation, unsafe labour conditions, or policy breaches through established internal reporting routes. Reports are treated seriously, reviewed confidentially, and investigated without unnecessary delay.

We do not tolerate retaliation against anyone who raises a concern or assists with an investigation. Protecting whistleblowers is essential to maintaining trust and ensuring that potential issues are identified early. Where an allegation is substantiated, we implement corrective measures and, if required, refer matters to the appropriate authorities.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement

This modern slavery statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains effective, relevant, and aligned with legal and operational developments. Emersonpark Storage assesses progress against its risk controls, supplier oversight activities, and reporting processes each year. Lessons learned from incidents, audits, and management reviews are used to improve our approach.

Through ongoing review, we aim to strengthen the resilience of our business and supply chain, while supporting ethical employment practices and respect for human rights. Emersonpark Storage remains committed to continuous improvement and to taking meaningful action wherever modern slavery risks may exist.
