Modern Slavery Policy

Introduction  

This statement sets out MPWR-365Ltd’s actions to understand all potential modern slavery risks related to its business and to put in place steps that ensure there is no slavery or human trafficking in either our own business or supply chains, so far as is practicable for the business to ascertain. 

The purpose of this statement 

This statement is approved by the Founders of MPWR-365Ltd and is made in accordance with Section54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. The statement recognises that under the current requirements of the Act, MPWR-365 has no legal obligation to provide a statement, however we believe it constitutes the best practise for all businesses to provide a public statement highlighting the importance to individuals and society of eliminating modern slavery wherever it occurs and our key steps to support such an aim.  

MPWR-365 recognises that slavery and human trafficking is a real, but often-hidden issue in society. It is a practise that impacts on individuals, families and communities and is unacceptable no matter what excuse is made. 

Whilst the company does not meet the statutory requirements that demand a statement, we want every member of our team, our supply chain and our clients and customers to recognise that modern slavery is unacceptable and where suspected or identified will not be tolerated. 

We will always act ethically, honestly and in full compliance with the law and regulations and we will expect and demand that all our supply chain, clients and customers do similarly. 

We will take a zero-tolerance approach to any discovery of modern slavery, or its practises, and are committed to implementing effective policies and processes to safeguard against any form of modern slavery or human trafficking in our business and supply chain.
