Modern Slavery Statement — Skip Hire Brent Cross

Skip Hire Brent Cross (also operating as skip hire Brent Cross and Brent Cross skip hire) is committed to maintaining the highest standards of ethical behaviour across our operations and supply chains. This modern slavery statement sets out our approach to preventing forced labour, human trafficking and any form of slavery within our business and among our suppliers. We adopt a zero-tolerance policy in relation to modern slavery and human exploitation, and we require the same standards from all parties we work with.

Our Policy and Principles

We have a clear and publicly declared position: slavery, servitude, forced labour and human trafficking are unacceptable in any part of our operations. Our policy framework for SkipHire Brent Cross is designed to identify and mitigate risk through due diligence, procurement controls and staff awareness. All employees and contractors are expected to uphold these principles and to report any suspicions or evidence of wrongdoing.

We define our scope to include direct operations, agency labour, haulage partners and third-party providers. Our supply chain assessments consider high-risk activities and geographies, and we require contractual compliance with anti-slavery provisions. The Company expects suppliers to act lawfully and ethically and to implement their own policies that align with our standards.

Supplier Audits and Due Diligence

We undertake targeted supplier audits to assess compliance and to offer improvement plans where required. Audit activities include:

• Document reviews including contracts, payslips and right-to-work verification.
• On-site inspections where appropriate, to observe working conditions and speak with workers.
• Risk-based assessments prioritising suppliers in higher-risk sectors or regions.

Where issues are identified, Skip Hire Brent Cross will seek swift remediation. In serious cases, we will terminate relationships with non-compliant suppliers. Our audit programme is extensible: new intelligence and risk indicators will shape the focus of future assessments.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing — We maintain accessible reporting channels for workers, subcontractors and third parties to raise concerns. Reports may be made through internal routes and via anonymous mechanisms that protect the identity of the reporter. Our processes ensure that allegations are investigated promptly, fairly and confidentially. We emphasise that any form of retaliation against someone raising a concern in good faith will not be tolerated and is subject to disciplinary action.

Training, Communication and Continuous Improvement — All relevant staff, including procurement, operations and site management teams, receive training on recognising signs of modern slavery and how to escalate concerns. We communicate our expectations to suppliers and partners and provide guidance on compliance. Training is refreshed periodically and adapted to reflect emerging risks.

We maintain defined contractual clauses that require compliance with anti-slavery obligations, and we embed modern slavery considerations into tendering and supplier onboarding processes. Our approach balances prevention, detection and remediation to protect vulnerable workers and maintain ethical standards across the fly-tipping and waste management supply chain.

Annual Review and Governance — This statement is reviewed at least once every 12 months by senior management and the board-level sponsor responsible for ethical compliance. The annual review examines the effectiveness of policies, audit findings, training outcomes and any remediation actions taken. Where improvements are identified, we commit to implementing changes and reporting on progress in subsequent statements. Skip Hire Brent Cross reaffirms its ongoing pledge to combat modern slavery, to uphold workers’ rights and to ensure that every part of our business and supplier network aligns with our zero-tolerance stance.
