Anti-Slavery Statement
Anti-Slavery Statement
From the Directors of Western Peak Ltd
We are committed to improving our practices across the whole of our business to combat slavery and human trafficking.
Our Business, Structure and Operation
We are a telecommunication service provider supplying our services within the United Kingdom. We are based in
Wrexham, Wales, wherein our Head Office is based, and from here, we can maintain vigilance on activities.
High-risk activities
We believe we have no activities in our business that are at high risk of slavery or human trafficking.
Our Supply Chains
Within our supply chain we use subcontractors to install and support services and telecommunication equipment manufacturers
that supply the electronic equipment we need to deliver our services. The telecommunications networks
interconnect to other networks as part of the supply chain.
Our policies on slavery and human trafficking
In line with our core company values we are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking within
our supply chains or in any part of our business. Our Anti-Slavery Policy reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with
integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery
and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains. Western Peak Ltd has created an effective
Whistleblowing Policy and procedure which is available to all interested parties to take-up.
As part of our initiatives to identify and mitigate risk we undertake robust steps within due diligence conducted by our business
to help combat slavery or human trafficking, which steps we outline below.
Recruitment
Our recruitment process includes robust controls to validate the ID of any prospective employees and ensure that they have full
right to work documentation and relevant reference and background checks are carried out. Recruitment agencies, where used,
are largely used from our Preferred Supplier list and are subject to full due diligence by the Procurement Team.
Supply Chain and Third Party referrals
To monitor compliance by our outsourced suppliers we require a Supplier Compliance Questionnaire to be satisfactorily
completed before we engage with suppliers which includes an acknowledgment of a supplier's Modern Slavery legislative
compliance. We expect all suppliers to behave ethically and treat all employees, customers and sub-contractors fairly and with
respect.
Equality Act 2010 compliance -
to protect against discrimination, harassment, and victimisation.
Suppliers should confirm compliance with all human rights and employment law in the jurisdictions in which they work which
includes complying with the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
Western Peak Ltd expects suppliers to adhere to anti-corruption laws, including but not limited to the Bribery Act 2010 and all
applicable anti-money laundering regulations. By actively reviewing and engaging with our suppliers and their internal
processes we commit to the following points:
● Identify and assess potential risk areas in our supply chains.
● Mitigate the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our supply chains.
• Monitor potential risk areas in our supply chains.
● Protect whistle blowers
● Training+
To ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and our
business, we commit to provide training to our staff. We also request our business partners to provide training to their staff and
suppliers and providers.
