Introduction
Hisen & Sons Group (trading name Hisen & Sons Limited) is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all aspects of our business and supply chains. We recognise our responsibility to act ethically and with integrity, and we are dedicated to ensuring transparency in how we operate.

Our Commitment
We take a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. We are committed to:
- Acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships.
- Implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our business or in any of our supply chains.
- Upholding the human rights of workers, and ensuring safe, fair, and respectful working conditions.
Our Supply Chains

We aim to build strong, transparent relationships with trusted suppliers who share our values. We assess risks in our supply chains and take steps to ensure our partners adhere to ethical labour standards.
Due Diligence and Risk Assessment
To identify and mitigate the risk of modern slavery, we:

- Review our procurement processes to identify high-risk areas.
- Encourage the reporting of concerns and provide protection for whistleblowers.
