Modern Slavery Statement 2022

Watford Vape Magazine is committed to conducting its business operations with the highest ethical standards. We strive to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking have no place in our organization or within our supply chains. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines our commitment to preventing such practices and our actions to mitigate the risks associated with modern slavery.

Our Policies and Practices:

  1. Supplier Code of Conduct: We have implemented a Supplier Code of Conduct that sets out our expectations regarding labor practices, human rights, and ethical business conduct. We require our suppliers to adhere to these principles and regularly assess their compliance.
  2. Due Diligence: We undertake due diligence when selecting and monitoring our suppliers to identify and mitigate the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking. This includes assessing their policies, procedures, and labor practices to ensure they align with our ethical standards.
  3. Contracts and Audits: Our supplier contracts include provisions that explicitly prohibit the use of forced labor, child labor, or any other form of modern slavery. We reserve the right to conduct audits or request independent audits of suppliers to assess their compliance with these provisions.
  4. Employee Awareness and Training: We provide regular training and awareness programs to our employees to ensure they understand the risks associated with modern slavery and are equipped to identify and report any concerns.

Reports can be made anonymously, and we will handle them confidentially. We are committed to taking appropriate actions to address any such concerns.
