Modern Slavery Statement
This statement is made in accordance with the requirements of the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 and sets out the steps taken by New Resource Recruitment to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking within our business and supply chains.
Our Commitment
We are committed to conducting business ethically, responsibly, and with integrity. We believe everyone has the right to work in an environment that is safe, fair, and free from exploitation. We take a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking and are dedicated to ensuring that these practices have no place in our operations or supply chains.
Our Business
New Resource Recruitment is a UK-based recruitment agency providing workforce solutions across a wide range of sectors including commercial, professional, executive, engineering, manufacturing, technology, and industrial. As part of our operations, we are mindful of the risks associated with modern slavery, particularly within temporary and seasonal recruitment, and we have measures in place to safeguard candidates and clients alike.
Policies and Procedures
We have implemented a range of policies to ensure we operate to the highest standards, including:
- Recruitment and Selection Practices – robust right-to-work checks, identity verification, and compliance with UK employment law.
- Supplier Code of Conduct – requiring our suppliers and partners to uphold ethical labour standards.
- Whistleblowing Policy – enabling staff, candidates, and partners to raise concerns confidentially and without fear of retaliation.
- Training and Awareness – ensuring our staff are trained to identify and respond to signs of exploitation or modern slavery.
Due Diligence in Supply Chains
We recognise the importance of transparency in our supply chains. We undertake due diligence checks with suppliers and partners to ensure they share our commitment to ethical practices. Where risks are identified, we work collaboratively to resolve issues, and we reserve the right to terminate relationships where compliance cannot be assured.
Risk Assessment
We continually review areas of potential risk within our operations, with particular focus on:
- Temporary and contract recruitment.
- High-volume or seasonal workforce requirements.
- Sectors identified as having increased risk within the UK labour market.
- Our processes are designed to mitigate these risks and protect vulnerable individuals from exploitation.
Monitoring and Continuous Improvement
We are committed to ongoing monitoring and improvement in the fight against modern slavery. This includes:
- Regular review of policies and procedures.
- Annual training refreshers for our staff.
- Strengthening partnerships with clients and suppliers who share our values.
- Publishing this statement annually to remain transparent and accountable.
Conclusion
Modern slavery and human trafficking are serious violations of human rights, and New Resource Recruitment remains firmly committed to preventing these practices in all aspects of our business. We will continue to build awareness, strengthen our policies, and take proactive measures to ensure our agency is part of the solution.
This statement has been approved by the Board of Directors of New Resource Recruitment and is reviewed and updated annually.
