Modern Slavery Policy Statement
Introduction
At The Opportunity Hub UK (OHUB), we are committed to improving our practices to combat slavery and human trafficking. We recognise the importance of acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships. Ensuring there is transparency in our own business and in our approach to tackling modern slavery throughout our supply chains is a core aspect of this commitment. This policy reflects our promise to act ethically and with integrity in all our business operations and relationships.
Organisation’s Structure
We are a proud provider of recruitment solutions, based in England. The Opportunity Hub UK is dedicated to connecting individuals with their ideal employment opportunities, fostering environments where both businesses and individuals can thrive. Our innovative approach transcends traditional recruitment methods, focusing on meaningful connections and the potential of every candidate.
Our Business
The Opportunity Hub UK operates as more than just a recruitment platform; we are a holistic opportunity hub aimed at professional development, continuous learning, and personal growth. By streamlining the hiring process with a swift, efficient, and skills-based matching system, we ensure a perfect alignment between a candidate’s potential and a company’s culture and values.
Our Supply Chains
Our supply chains include, but are not limited to, technology providers, professional services, and partnership organisations that contribute to the operation and expansion of our platform. We are committed to continuously reviewing and enhancing our procurement processes to ensure alignment with our values against modern slavery.
Our Policies on Slavery and Human Trafficking
We are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in any part of our business or our supply chains. This Modern Slavery Policy reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains.
Due Diligence Processes for Slavery and Human Trafficking
As part of our initiative to identify and mitigate risk, we:
- Conduct due diligence on all new suppliers before allowing them to become a part of our supply chain.
- Regularly review our existing supply chains to ensure compliance with our values.
- Encourage the reporting of concerns and the protection of whistle blowers.
Training
To ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and our business, we provide training to our staff. We also require our business partners to provide training to their staff and suppliers and providers.
Commitment to Fair Employment Practices
At The Opportunity Hub UK, we are dedicated to promoting fair employment practices across all aspects of our operations and supply chains. This includes a firm stance against the advertisement or endorsement of unpaid jobs that violate labour laws and undermine the dignity of work. We believe in the value of every individual’s labour and advocate for compensation that reflects the skills, effort, and contributions of job seekers. Our platform rigorously screens job listings to ensure they comply with UK employment standards, including fair wages and conditions, to safeguard against exploitation and modern slavery.
Our Effectiveness in Combating Slavery and Human Trafficking
We use the following key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure how effective we have been in ensuring that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in any part of our business or supply chains:
- Use of labour monitoring and payroll audits.
- Level of communication and personal contact with the next link in the supply chain and their understanding of, and compliance with, our expectations.
This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes our slavery and human trafficking statement for the current financial year.
