Modern Slavery Statement

At Care Homes In My Area, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity, ethics, and responsibility in all aspects of our business operations. As a leading platform for discovering local care homes in the UK, we recognise the importance of combating modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and within our sphere of influence.

Our Approach

We firmly believe that every individual has the right to live and work in conditions of freedom, dignity, and respect. Therefore, we have implemented comprehensive measures to prevent, detect, and address any instances of modern slavery or human trafficking associated with our business activities. Our approach includes:

• Policies and Procedures: We have developed robust policies and procedures that explicitly prohibit modern slavery and human trafficking in any form within our organisation and supply chains. These policies are communicated to all employees, suppliers, and partners, emphasising our zero-tolerance stance towards such practices.
• Supplier Due Diligence: We conduct thorough due diligence on all our suppliers to ensure they comply with relevant laws and regulations concerning modern slavery and human trafficking. This includes assessing their policies, practices, and adherence to ethical standards.
• Employee Training: We provide regular training and awareness programs to our employees, empowering them to recognise the signs of modern slavery and human trafficking and report any concerns promptly. By fostering a culture of vigilance and accountability, we strive to mitigate the risk of exploitation within our organisation and supply chains.
• Reporting Mechanisms: We maintain accessible and confidential channels for reporting any suspicions or incidents of modern slavery or human trafficking. Employees, suppliers, or other stakeholders can raise concerns without fear of retaliation, and we are committed to thoroughly investigating all reports and taking appropriate action.

• Continuous Improvement: We continuously review and enhance our practices and procedures to adapt to evolving risks and challenges related to modern slavery and human trafficking. Through ongoing monitoring and evaluation, we seek to strengthen our efforts and contribute to the eradication of these egregious crimes.
