Arjan Capital Ltd is committed to its responsibilities under the UK’s Modern Slavery Act 2015 and this statement sets out the firm’s zero-tolerance approach towards modern slavery and human trafficking.
Our approach
As an organisation providing advisory services with a short supply chain, we assess the risk of modern slavery within our business and supply chain to be low. However, we consider modern slavery to be a fundamental issue and we are committed to working ethically and with integrity and to ensure that it does not take place anywhere within our business, including our international offices and / or our supply chain.
We have a zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery, a crime and violation of fundamental human rights which includes any form of slavery, servitude and forced or compulsory labour.
We maintain a Whistleblowing Policy and other sustainable business policies that ensure issues should not arise but if they do, any concerns raised can be dealt with appropriately.
Supplier due diligence
Our key suppliers are the businesses which provide the goods and services required to run our offices, and to deliver services to our clients globally.
We expect all our contractors, suppliers and other business partners to adopt the same high standard as we do to prevent modern slavery, by ensuring all employees and workers are treated with dignity and respect in a fair and ethical environment.
We expect our suppliers to adopt the same principles when contracting with their own suppliers.
Work culture
We are dedicated to maintaining a fair and ethical workplace for all our staff.
We ensure compliance with all applicable employment legislation relating to employee recruitment and terms and conditions, including right to work evidence and that no UK staff in the UK offices are paid less than the living wage. Our Grievance and Whistleblowing Policies enable concerns to be raised and resolved. Those can include any concerns about supplier practices.
Our work procedures promote diversity, establishing mutual respect as a core value in the office and deal with discrimination, harassment and bullying.
