Reported risks and mitigations

• Risk: Frequent last-minute requests for up to 50 staff from a client, resulting in the requirement of a quick turnaround for necessary checks, ensuring no indicators of modern slavery slip through the net.
• Area: Within your own operations
• Group: Women Migrants Refugees
• Location: United Kingdom
• Mitigation: Further consolidation of our RTW and document-checking process for workers.
• Risk: Potentially dangerous and physically demanding work on a waste management site in a rural, remote area.
• Mitigation: Discussion of Health & Safety risks to be aware of, passed onto workers in the Assignment Details form.
• Risk: High volume recruitment of warehouse/logistics staff in an area with a large migrant population, who may also not have good comprehension of English or indicators of modern slavery.
• Mitigation: Effective use of our knowledge of modern slavery indicators, as well as detailed checks carried out on each worker to ensure there is no forced labour at play.
