Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

Introduction
This Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement is a response to Section 54(1), Part 6 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and relates to actions and activities for the financial year ending 30 April 2022

A-MNEMONIC Limited (‘The Company’, ‘we’, ‘us’ or ‘our’) is committed to preventing slavery and human trafficking violations in its own operations, its supply chain and musical commissions.  We have a zero-tolerance towards slavery and require our supply chain to comply with our values.

Operational structure
A-MNEMONIC Limited has business operations in the United Kingdom.

A-MNEMONIC operates in the advertising and broadcast media sector. These sectors have straightforward supply chains compared with other sectors in the UK and the majority of the providers of services and goods we use are based in the UK. 

We work with a number of key direct suppliers who provide us with goods such as equipment for our premises, and services such as outsourced creative talent, business processes and IT services.

Operating in the advertising sector, the risk of modern slavery or human trafficking taking place in our supply chain is low. Nevertheless, we understand the importance of combating slavery and human trafficking and our duty to take steps to tackle the issue.

Policies
We operate various internal policies to ensure that we are conducting business in an ethical and transparent manner.

These include:

  • Supplier code of conduct –
    We operate this policy to ensure our suppliers operate in full compliance with the laws, rules and regulations of the countries in which they operate, and to seek similar commitments across their own supply chain.
  • Staff code of conduct.
    We are committed to the fair treatment of all staff.  Our staff code of conduct reflects our core values and expected behaviours.  The code of conduct makes it clear that we have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery.
  • Procurement policy –
    We want to make sure that potential suppliers are committed to ensuring that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place within their own supply chains.  Our procurement policy and supporting procedures set out controls and checks undertaken to help verify this.

Due Diligence
As part of our efforts to monitor and reduce the risk of slavery and human trafficking occuring in our supply chains, we have adopted the following due diligence procedures.

  • Monitor and Identify potential risks in our business and supply chains and take action.
  • Reduce the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our business and supply chains.

Risk and Compliance
The  Company has evaluated the nature and extent of its exposure to the risk of slavery and human trafficking occuring in its UK supply chain through:

  • Evaluating the slavery and human trafficking risks of each new supplier.
    We do not consider that we operate in a high-risk environment because the majority of our supply chain is based in the UK and in low-risk industries such as technology and creative talent services.

We do not tolerate slavery and human trafficking in our supply chain.  Where there is evidence of failure to comply with our policies and procedures by any of our suppliers, we will seek to terminate our relationship with that supplier immediately.

Training our staff
The company requires its staff to complete training and ongoing refresher courses on slavery and human trafficking.  The Company’s training covers:

  • How to identify the signs of slavery and human trafficking.
