Modern Slavery Statement for Camdentown Storage

Camdentown Storage is committed to conducting business with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the principles and actions that guide our operations and reflects our zero-tolerance approach to all forms of forced labour, human trafficking, servitude, child labour, and exploitation. We recognise that modern slavery can exist in complex supply chains, and we take active steps to identify, prevent, and address these risks across our organisation.

Our commitment applies to every part of the business, including direct employees, contractors, and third-party partners. We expect all individuals and organisations connected to Camdentown Storage to act ethically and in line with applicable laws. This statement is reviewed as part of our wider governance framework, ensuring that our storage operations, procurement decisions, and supplier relationships remain aligned with our values.

We are aware that the risk of modern slavery may be heightened in sectors involving logistics, facilities management, cleaning, maintenance, transport, and outsourced services. For that reason, Camdentown Storage maintains a proactive stance, using due diligence to assess modern slavery risks and strengthen responsible practices throughout our supply base.

Our Policies and Controls

Camdentown Storage maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward slavery and human trafficking. Any evidence or suspicion of exploitation is treated as a serious matter and investigated promptly. Our policies are supported by internal procedures covering recruitment, procurement, contractor management, and business conduct. We do not permit the use of coercive recruitment fees, document retention, or any practice that restricts a person’s freedom of movement or choice.

We also require relevant employees and managers to understand their responsibilities in identifying warning signs. These include unusual worker control, inconsistent pay arrangements, poor accommodation standards, or signs that workers may not be acting voluntarily. Through training and awareness, we aim to ensure that modern slavery concerns are recognised early and escalated appropriately.

We maintain clear reporting channels so that concerns can be raised safely and without fear of retaliation. Reports may be made through internal management routes or designated compliance processes, and all concerns are handled confidentially to the extent possible. We encourage anyone who suspects unethical labour practices to speak up, because early reporting is essential to protecting vulnerable people and preventing harm.

Supplier Due Diligence and Audits

Supplier relationships are central to our prevention strategy. Camdentown Storage conducts risk-based supplier due diligence before engagement and throughout the relationship. This includes reviewing labour practices, ownership structures, country risk factors, and the type of service being provided. Where higher-risk indicators are present, we may request further information, contractual assurances, or evidence of remedial action.

Our supplier audits are designed to verify that expectations are being met in practice, not just on paper. Audits may include document checks, workforce interviews where appropriate, site inspections, and review of subcontracting arrangements. When issues are identified, we expect suppliers to cooperate with corrective actions and demonstrate measurable improvement. Persistent non-compliance may lead to suspension or termination of the relationship.

We also work to ensure that procurement decisions support responsible sourcing. Camdentown Storage seeks to partner with suppliers who share our commitment to ethical labour standards, and we continue to strengthen contractual clauses that require compliance with anti-slavery laws, cooperation with audits, and prompt reporting of any suspected breach.

Governance, Review, and Continuous Improvement

The effectiveness of our approach is monitored through management oversight and periodic review of controls, incidents, and supplier performance. Where risks change, we adapt our measures accordingly. Our governance structure ensures that modern slavery remains a standing issue in business planning, procurement oversight, and operational decision-making.

We undertake an annual review of this statement and the arrangements that support it. The review considers legal developments, audit findings, training activity, supplier performance, and any reports raised through our channels. This process helps us identify improvements and refine our response to emerging risks, ensuring that our approach remains practical and effective.

Camdentown Storage believes that preventing modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility. By maintaining a zero-tolerance culture, strengthening supplier audits, offering confidential reporting channels, and conducting an annual review, we are committed to continuous improvement and to protecting the rights and dignity of every person connected to our business. We will continue to act with vigilance, accountability, and care.
