Policies are written by our HR team to ensure that we are conducting business in an ethical and transparent manner across all areas of the
business and are approved by our CEO, Andy Sloan. We believe that everyone should earn a fair living wage and all our employees are
remunerated above the real living wage rate. As an equal opportunities’ employer, we’re also committed to creating and ensuring a nondiscriminatory and respectful working environment for our employees. We have also continued to review our policies and practices around equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) and have launched our EDI Forum with sessions held once a month. We also celebrated Black History Month,
International Women’s Day, and Pride month
These include:
- Anti-slavery policy – This policy sets out the organisation’s stance on modern slavery and explains how employees can identify any instances of this and where they can go for help..
- Recruitment policy – As part of our recruitment policy, we undertake thorough checks to ascertain the eligibility of an individual to work in the UK to safeguard them against human trafficking or being forced to work against their will.
- Whistleblowing policy – We have ensured that robust processes are in place to protect whistle-blowers and have communicated this assurance to all our employees. Employees are encouraged to raise any concerns they may have about how colleagues are being treated, or about practices within our business or supply chain, without fear of reprisals. Details of the whistleblowing policy is included in our Employee Handbook.
- Supplier terms and conditions. We are committed to ensuring that our suppliers adhere to the highest standards of ethics. Suppliers are required to demonstrate that they provide safe working conditions, treat workers with dignity and respect and act ethically and within the law in their use of labour. We work closely with our suppliers to ensure that they meet the standards of the code. Serious violations of the organisation’s supplier code of conduct will lead to the termination of our business relationship.
Due diligence processes
All Response Media undertakes due diligence when considering taking on new suppliers. We have a preferred supplier list which is regularly
reviewed. The organisation’s due diligence and reviews include:
- An online search to ensure that the organisation has never been convicted of offences relating to modern slavery.
- Suppliers hold their own suppliers to account over modern slavery.
- For UK suppliers that they pay their employees at least the national minimum wage / national living wage.
- For international suppliers that they pay their employees any prevailing minimum wage applicable within their country.
We take these conditions seriously and may terminate the contract for any suppliers who seriously evoke these conditions.
Risk assessment
Risk assessments are conducted on an on-going basis to evaluate the risks relating to slavery and human trafficking and no areas of concern have been highlighted during these evaluations. Given the nature of the services the business provides, we consider our exposure to be of a low risk to both modern slavery and human trafficking
Measuring effectiveness
We believe our effectiveness can be measured by the fact that we have notreceived any reports from employees, law enforcement agencies or the
public indicating that modern slavery practices have been identified that we are taking the necessary measures within the business and our supply chain.
Training
Developed communication and training mechanisms, including an employee handbook, that raises awareness of the issue of modern slavery,
what to look out for and actions to take if there is any concern is distributed to all employees. In addition, all new starters during their
induction are briefed on the issues of modern slavery and human trafficking.
As Part of our ongoing training programme to create a non-discriminatory, healthy work environment, we ran training courses on Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging, Mental Health Awareness and Meditation Courses as we believe a healthy work environment is essential to the physical and mental wellbeing of our employees.
