Modern Slavery Statement — Roehampton Man with Van

Company logo and statement header Roehampton Man with Van declares a clear and unequivocal commitment to preventing modern slavery, human trafficking and exploitation in our operations and supply chains. This modern slavery statement applies to Roehampton man and van services, our subcontractors and anyone acting on our behalf. We operate a zero-tolerance policy toward forced labour, servitude, and any form of coercion. Our people, clients and partners are informed that we will not tolerate any practices that violate human rights and labour standards.

We set out expectations for suppliers and partners in procurement documents and contracts for our Roehampton removal service activities. Our standards require lawful employment, transparent wage practices, and safe working conditions. Staff training raises awareness across the business so that drivers, coordinators and administrative staff can recognise signs of exploitation. We maintain clear procedures for recruitment and engagement of temporary workers and subcontractors to minimise risk in the man-with-van and man with a van sectors.

A group of three individuals engaged in a house removals process, standing indoors in a well-lit room with plain white walls and light-colored curtains. The man in the foreground has dark, slightly curly hair and a beard, and is dressed in a light grey shirt; he is holding a stack of documents and a red folder, likely related to the move. To his right, a woman with shoulder-length brown hair, wearing a red t-shirt, is carrying two medium-sized cardboard boxes, one labeled 'Fragile' with safety tape, indicating careful handling. In the background, a young man with short blond hair, dressed in a white shirt, is holding a large plain cardboard box. The scene describes typical household items used during a relocation, such as cardboard boxes, some sealed with packing tape, and documents, reflecting a professional house removals environment. The setting suggests a residential property in the Roehampton area of southwest London, consistent with the postcode and local context. The overall atmosphere is professional and organized, capturing a moment typical of a house moving service by Roehampton Man with Van, with a focus on safe handling and efficient packing of belongings. As part of our compliance and supplier governance, Roehampton man-and-van undertakes regular supplier audits and risk assessments of third-party providers. These audits include:

  • document verification of payroll and right-to-work checks;
  • interviews and site visits where possible;
  • assessment of recruitment fees, retention of identity documents and accommodation arrangements.
Findings from audits are used to remediate issues with corrective action plans and to terminate relationships where necessary.

A young couple with light skin sitting back-to-back on a wooden floor indoors, surrounded by moving boxes of various sizes. The man, positioned on the left, is wearing a navy blue t-shirt and dark plaid trousers, smiling and holding one of the boxes. The woman, on the right, is wearing a light grey sweater and blue jeans, also smiling, with her arms resting on one of the boxes. The scene suggests an active house move within a residential property, possibly in a suburb near Roehampton, with the boxes indicating packing and relocation activities typical of professional house removals services. The environment is well-lit, with a bright, plain background that emphasizes the moving process and household items such as cardboard boxes ready for transport, suitable for a local household move in the London area. We provide multiple secure reporting channels so concerns can be raised safely and confidentially. Workers, clients and third parties can report suspicions through internal hotlines, designated managers, or anonymous reporting mechanisms. Reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly and protected from retaliation. Our reporting framework emphasises:

Reporting channels and investigation

• Accessibility: clear routes for verbal and written reports.
• Confidentiality: investigations conducted with discretion.
• Follow-up: corrective measures and support for affected individuals.
We collaborate with external agencies and law enforcement when an allegation requires specialist intervention and preserve evidence in line with legal obligations.

Supplier engagement and continuous improvement

Our supplier due diligence includes contractual clauses that require compliance with anti-slavery laws and permit audits. We encourage suppliers to implement their own policies, provide training, and demonstrate transparency. Where deficiencies are found we use a proportionate approach: engagement and remediation for minor breaches, and termination for serious or persistent violations. Roehampton man and van recognises that improvement is an ongoing process and supports capacity-building for smaller partners.

A smiling man and woman standing outside a modern residential building in Roehampton, each holding large cardboard boxes filled with household items. The woman has long dark hair and is dressed in a light purple top and white trousers, while the man is wearing a light blue shirt and dark jeans. Behind them, the house features a contemporary design with a brick and panel facade, and a small garden with green grass and plants. They are positioned on a paved pathway with steps leading up to the entrance, suggesting they are in the process of a home relocation. A black planter box runs along the front of the house, and the overall scene is illuminated by natural daylight, emphasizing the outdoor setting typical of a house removals service in the Roehampton area. Zero-tolerance policy and employee responsibilities
All employees and contractors must comply with this policy. Breaches are disciplinary matters and could lead to dismissal or termination of contracts. Managers are responsible for ensuring awareness and monitoring compliance. We require staff to complete regular training and to actively report concerns through the channels outlined above. Our commitment extends across every element of our operations, including relocation, deliveries and ad-hoc man-with-van tasks.

In a brightly lit, minimalist domestic room with light wooden flooring and neutral-colored walls, two movers dressed in red uniforms are seen carefully carrying a medium-sized wooden chest of drawers. One mover is holding the chest from the side, while the other supports it from underneath, ensuring stability during the transfer. In the background, a large window with wooden framing and partially closed blinds allows natural light into the space, enhancing the clean and open atmosphere. A man in casual attire, wearing a red t-shirt and jeans, and a woman in a turquoise top and yellow skirt, stand nearby observing the process, with some cardboard boxes stacked casually on the floor near the window. The scene appears to be set within a residential house in the Roehampton area, capturing a moment during a home relocation coordinated by Roehampton Man with Van, with the focus on the careful handling of household furniture in preparation for moving day, reflecting professional removals services in a typical house interior. Annual review and transparency
This statement is reviewed at least once every 12 months to assess effectiveness and to incorporate learnings from investigations, audits and sector developments. The annual review examines risk areas, audit outcomes, training completion rates and remediation actions taken. We publish findings internally and take remedial steps where necessary to strengthen policies and controls. The review cycle drives improvements to our Roehampton removal service policies and supplier management processes.

Conclusion: Roehampton Man with Van remains fully committed to combating modern slavery. Through a zero-tolerance approach, robust supplier audits, accessible reporting channels and a formal annual review, we aim to identify, prevent and remedy any risks of exploitation in our operations and supply chains, continually raising standards for the benefit of workers and customers across our services.
