Modern Slavery Statement for Manwithvan E8

Manwithvan E8 sets out this Modern Slavery Statement to declare a clear and enduring commitment to preventing exploitation in our operations and supply chain. Our anti-slavery statement applies to all colleagues, contractors and suppliers engaged by Manwithvan E8 and describes the steps we take to identify, prevent and remediate modern slavery risks. We recognise that a robust modern slavery policy is central to protecting vulnerable workers and maintaining ethical business practices.

Our Zero-Tolerance Policy and Commitments

We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of forced labour, human trafficking or exploitation. This commitment is embedded across our operations and is reflected in procurement, recruitment, training and contractual terms. Manwithvan E8’s zero-tolerance approach ensures that everyone who works for or with us is treated with dignity and fairness and that violations are not tolerated under any circumstances.

Scope and Supply Chain Due Diligence

Our modern slavery statement covers direct employees, agency workers and third-party suppliers. We undertake risk-based due diligence to assess potential exposure to slavery and trafficking across our supply chain. Where risk is identified, we require suppliers to comply with our standards and to submit to regular supplier audits. This slavery statement and related policies are communicated to key partners to ensure alignment with our expectations.

We maintain clear procurement requirements, contractual clauses and onboarding checks that reduce the risk of exploitation. Supplier audits form a cornerstone of our approach: they examine recruitment practices, wage records and worker documentation to confirm lawful and fair treatment. Where a supplier fails to meet our standards, we use graduated remediation measures and, if necessary, termination of the business relationship.

Key measures we apply include:

• Supplier audits and third-party inspections to verify labour practices;
• Mandatory clauses in contracts requiring compliance with our modern slavery policy;
• Training for procurement and line managers to spot signs of trafficking;
• Periodic risk assessments focused on high-risk suppliers and geographies.

These measures are designed to be practical and proportionate, providing a clear framework for preventing modern slavery while enabling continual improvement across our value chain. Our anti-slavery statement is living policy and informs day-to-day decision making.

We provide multiple reporting channels for concerns about exploitation. Employees and external parties can raise issues through designated internal reporting routes, and we support anonymous reporting where appropriate. All allegations are taken seriously and investigated promptly. Reporting channels are designed to be accessible, confidential and free from retaliation to encourage early escalation and swift action.

Alongside reactive reporting we monitor key performance indicators and undertake periodic third-party reviews to evaluate the effectiveness of our controls. Where incidents are found, we take appropriate remedial action including remediation for affected workers, supplier improvement plans, contract review and, where necessary, termination of suppliers who do not rectify breaches. We document findings and track corrective measures to closure.

Governance of our modern slavery compliance rests with senior management and is supported by training, policy reviews and stakeholder engagement. We commit to an annual review of this modern slavery statement and associated policies to reflect emerging risks and to strengthen controls. This annual review ensures that Manwithvan E8 remains proactive in detecting, preventing and remedying modern slavery and that our anti-slavery statement continues to meet high ethical standards and legal expectations.
