Our Position
Metro Politan Guard Services is committed to maintaining and improving systems and processes to avoid complicity in human rights violations related to our own operations, our supply chain and our products and services.
We understand that slavery and human trafficking can occur in many forms, such as forced labour, child labour, domestic servitude, sex trafficking, workplace human trafficking.
We work proactively to reduce modern slavery and are committed to maintaining improving systems and processes to protect against and avoid complicity in human rights violations related to our operations, our supply chain, our products and our services,
We always take due diligence when considering taking on new suppliers and clients, and regularly review agreements with existing suppliers and clients. This is consistent with applicable laws, contractual and other obligations. It is also consistent with out fundamental principles and broader company policies.
As key part of supporting ethical standards is enabling our employees and others, including suppliers, subcontractors and partners to feel free and safe to speak up when there are reasonable grounds to suspect that we are not acting ethically or in accordance with laws and obligations.
Therefore, in this statement we use the terms "slavery and human trafficking" to encompass these various forms of coerced labour.
Training and Continuous Improvement
Our values guide our commitment, therefore MG Services Group ensures to continuously develop and facilitate refresher training to stakeholders to raise awareness on what modern slavery looks like, its impact on individuals, companies and society, the background to the Act, what MG is doing in response to the Act, how this will impact our supply chain and what staff can do to minimise the potential risks.
