Modern Slavery Statement — Removals Movers
Removals Movers is committed to conducting its business with integrity and respect for human rights. This modern slavery and human trafficking statement explains the policies and processes in place across our moving services, including how Removals & Movers prevents, detects and responds to any form of modern slavery in our operations and supply chain.Our Principles and Commitment
We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery, forced labour, child labour and human trafficking. As a professional removal movers business we insist that all colleagues, contractors and suppliers adhere to these standards. Our removal movers policy is designed to uphold human dignity and ensure that everyone involved in our services is treated fairly, safely and lawfully.
Zero-tolerance Policy in Practice — Our approach is clear: any evidence of modern slavery identified within Removals Movers or among our partners triggers immediate investigation and corrective action. We apply strict disciplinary measures, including contract termination for suppliers and partners found in breach. removals-movers will never tolerate exploitation, and will take legal action where required.
Supply Chain Oversight and Supplier Audits
We recognise that robust oversight of our supply chain is essential. Our procurement process for the moving company, whether local or national, includes enhanced due diligence. We conduct regular supplier audits, risk assessments and on-site inspections to verify labour practices, working conditions and documentation. Our audit framework targets high-risk suppliers in transport, warehousing and subcontracted crew services used by Removals Movers.
Actions and Controls
To strengthen prevention and detection we implement the following measures:
- Contract requirements: Contracts require compliance with our modern slavery standards and allow for audit rights.
- Supplier audits: Regular audits and unannounced visits to ensure fair pay, lawful contracts and safe conditions.
- Training: Staff and contractors receive training to recognise signs of exploitation and understand reporting procedures.
- Risk-based sourcing: We avoid suppliers who cannot demonstrate acceptable labour practices.
These controls are applied across our removals and packing services, transport partners and any subcontracted moving crews to reduce the risk of modern slavery within our full value chain.
Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing
We maintain clear and accessible reporting channels to allow employees, contractors and third parties to raise concerns. Reports can be made anonymously and are treated with confidentiality and care. Our reporting process ensures allegations of exploitation are investigated by senior management and, where appropriate, referred to law enforcement. Removals Movers ensures there is no retaliation against whistleblowers acting in good faith.
Investigations and Remediation — All reports trigger a formal investigation. If modern slavery is confirmed, we take immediate steps including removing affected individuals from harm, engaging external specialists, and ensuring perpetrators are held accountable. We work with suppliers to implement remediation plans and, if needed, terminate relationships with non-compliant providers.
Annual Review, Governance and Continuous Improvement
Our Board and senior leadership review this modern slavery statement and associated controls annually. The review evaluates audit outcomes, incident reports, supplier performance and training effectiveness across the moving business. We set measurable objectives for the following year and update policies to reflect evolving best practice in preventing forced labour and trafficking.As a dedicated moving company, Removals Movers will continue to strengthen due diligence, expand supplier audits and improve reporting mechanisms. We publicly reaffirm our unwavering commitment to combat modern slavery: a zero-tolerance, accountable and transparent stance that shapes every aspect of our removals operations.
