Modern Slavery Act

01. Modern Slavery Statement

The College is committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in its supply chains or in any part of its activities.

 

Modern slavery is an international crime affecting millions of people across the globe. It is an unacceptable practice involving people of any age, gender or ethnicity, in developed and developing countries.

 

Victims in Britain include people trafficked from overseas, or vulnerable people from the UK, who are forced to work illegally or against their will. Evidence suggests that this is more prevalent in some sectors than others, but it can occur anywhere.

 

Open Learning College is committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in its supply chains or in any part of its activities. As part of this commitment, we have adopted an Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy and issue a Modern Slavery Statement annually in line with the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

 

We have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and staff have a duty and a responsibility to support this approach.

 


02. Modern Slavery Risks in our supply chains

We buy a range of goods and services, including stationary, office furniture, electronics (computers), food and catering supplies, books, printing and waste and recycling services and do so in accordance with public procurement law.

 

While the risks of modern slavery in our direct activities are likely to be low, we recognise that there are risks through the goods and services that we use through our supply chains. Modern Slavery Risks in sourcing labour

 

The college employs agency staff and sources labour from recruitment agencies. While the risks of modern slavery are likely to be low, we recognise that there are risks through the services provided by recruitment agencies when sourcing labour.

 


03. Our Commitment

  • We are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery and human trafficking within the college and we expect the same high standards from our suppliers.
  • Support and Integrity are just two of our values which indicates modern slavery and human trafficking is inconsistent with our values.
  • We will comply with legislation and regulatory requirements and ensure that staff are not exploited and that their employment, health & safety and human rights laws are adhered to.
  • We will develop awareness of Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking issues amongst staff and provide training where deemed necessary.
  • We will not use suppliers who do not ensure that slavery and human trafficking is taking place within their business.
  • Identify, assess and monitor potential risks in our supply chains by updating our Supplier Terms and Conditions.
  • Include modern slavery and human trafficking clauses in our standard terms and conditions.

 


04. Approval of Statement

This statement has been approved by the Senior Leadership Team and will be reviewed annually.

 

This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes our college’s slavery and human trafficking statement for the financial year 1st August 2023 – 31st July 2024.
