Due Diligence Processes for Slavery and Human Trafficking
The Company undertakes due diligence when considering taking on new suppliers, and regularly reviews its existing suppliers.
The Company’s due diligence process includes building long-standing relationships with suppliers and making clear our expectations to business partners. We expect each entity on the supply chain to have suitable anti-slavery and human trafficking policies and processes and to adopt ‘one up’ due diligence on the next link in the supply chain, as it is not practical for all participants to have a direct relationship with all links in the supply chain.
We will evaluate the modern slavery and human trafficking risks of each new supplier, the Right Fuelcard Company Ltd. will not support, or deal with, any business knowingly involved in slavery or human trafficking.
