Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
Payments to contractors are the most significant supplier payment type by value. Vital operate a self-billing system for contractor payments and these are generally paid within 4 days of the self-bill invoice being raised. For other transactions we agree appropriate terms of payment with suppliers and on timely receipt of satisfactory invoices payments are made to terms. Our standard terms are 30 days.
- Dispute resolution process
Disputes relating to incorrect hours or rates are dealt with at local branch level. Queries regarding deductions from pay are dealt with by the central payroll function at head office.
Other supplier disputes are managed via our Purchasing and Purchase Ledger departments.
On the rare occasions where resolution is not possible matters can be escalated to Director level.

Demonstrated progress
Over the past financial year, we strengthened our approach to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking by maintaining certificated management systems, enhancing supplier onboarding with due diligence and risk-based assessments, conducting internal audits to review controls, increasing employee awareness through targeted communications, and improving oversight of third-party labour providers, including umbrella companies.
Reported risks and mitigations
- Risk: Enslaved or human trafficked individuals are placed in work as agency labour with a client
- Area: Within your own operations
- Group: Women Migrants Refugees
- Location: United Kingdom
- Mitigation: Morson undertakes rigorous checks on each individual including eligibility to work in accordance with Home Office requirements, references, qualifications, proof of NI (UK), and bank details to ensure each person is acting in their own right.
- Risk: The use of suppliers that contravene the Modern Slavery Act 2015
- Area: Within your supply chains
- Tier: Tier 1 suppliers Tier 2 suppliers Tier 3 suppliers and below
- Group: Women Migrants Refugees Children
- Location: Bangladesh China United Kingdom
- Mitigation: Suppliers are assessed using a risk-based approach considering factors such as service type, labour provision, geographic location, and the nature of the goods or services supplied. Within the Supplier Questionnaire, suppliers are required to complete a dedicated section on Modern Slavery and declare their adherence to the Modern Slavery Act 2015
- Mitigation: We undertakes rigorous checks on each individual including eligibility to work in accordance with Home Office requirements, references, qualifications, proof of NI (UK), and bank details to ensure each person is acting in their own right.
A registry entry records what the organisation declared in its statement. It is not an independent audit. Group statements can cover several companies; BritDB preserves each exact source-supplied company-number link and excludes approver names and email addresses.

This is a candidate association, not an official Companies House link. The ICO file supplies no company number. The organisation name and postcode uniquely matched this company in the current snapshot. BritDB excludes all DPO contact fields and does not publish unmatched personal entries.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
08 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
09 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
10 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
11 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
12 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
