Modern Slavery Statement for Edenpark Storage

Edenpark Storage is committed to conducting business with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the actions taken to prevent modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child labour within our operations and supply chain. We recognise that risks can exist in any sector, and we maintain a clear zero-tolerance policy toward all forms of exploitation. Our approach is grounded in ethical procurement, responsible oversight, and continuous improvement.

As a storage business, our activities rely on a wide network of contractors, service providers, labour suppliers, and product vendors. We understand that the Edenpark Storage modern slavery policy must cover both direct operations and indirect business relationships. Accordingly, we expect all staff, contractors, and suppliers to meet the same high standards. Where concerns arise, they are assessed promptly and addressed through appropriate remedial action, including disengagement where necessary.

We also require relevant employees involved in purchasing, onboarding, and vendor management to remain alert to warning signs such as unusual recruitment practices, restricted worker movement, withheld wages, excessive working hours, or poor accommodation conditions. These indicators are considered seriously under the modern slavery compliance framework adopted by Edenpark Storage.

Supplier due diligence is central to our prevention strategy. Before engaging new suppliers, we assess their labour practices, ownership structure, and policies relating to human rights and workplace conduct. For higher-risk categories, we apply enhanced scrutiny and request supporting evidence of compliance. Our supplier audits may include document reviews, site inspections, worker interviews, and follow-up corrective action plans. When audit findings identify concerns, suppliers are expected to respond within agreed timelines, and progress is monitored closely.

We maintain contractual expectations that require suppliers to prohibit modern slavery in all forms and to flow these obligations through their own subcontractors. This helps extend our anti-slavery standards beyond first-tier relationships. If a supplier fails to cooperate or repeatedly breaches requirements, Edenpark Storage reserves the right to suspend or terminate the relationship. We view this as a necessary part of enforcing our zero-tolerance approach.

Training and awareness are also important. Staff involved in procurement, operations, and contract management receive guidance on identifying risk indicators and escalating concerns. This supports a culture in which human rights issues are not ignored and where the modern slavery statement is reflected in everyday decisions. By building awareness internally, we strengthen our ability to identify and prevent harmful practices before they take root.

We provide multiple reporting channels for concerns relating to slavery, exploitation, or unethical conduct. Employees and business partners may raise issues through line management, senior leadership, or formal whistleblowing routes. Reports are treated confidentially, investigated promptly, and handled without retaliation. This approach encourages early disclosure and helps ensure that any suspected breach of the Edenpark Storage modern slavery statement is taken seriously and addressed fairly.

Where a concern is substantiated, we may implement immediate protective measures, such as pausing work, increasing supervision, or requiring corrective action from the supplier involved. We also seek to support remediation where appropriate, recognising that effective response should prioritise the safety and welfare of affected individuals. Our procedure is designed to be practical, proportionate, and aligned with responsible business conduct.

To ensure accountability, this statement is reviewed annually by senior management. The review considers changes in our operations, emerging supply chain risks, audit outcomes, training activity, and any reported incidents. Findings from the annual review inform updates to policies, procedures, and supplier controls, helping Edenpark Storage strengthen its prevention measures year by year.

We are committed to continual improvement in the identification, prevention, and mitigation of modern slavery risks. This includes refining our due diligence processes, improving supplier engagement, and reinforcing expectations across our business relationships. The Edenpark Storage modern slavery policy is not a static document; it is a living commitment that supports ethical decision-making and accountable governance.

Through clear standards, active monitoring, and decisive action, Edenpark Storage aims to ensure that slavery and human trafficking have no place in our organisation or supply chain. We expect every individual and business partner connected to our operations to uphold these principles and contribute to a workplace culture built on dignity and lawful employment practices.

By maintaining a robust zero-tolerance policy, carrying out supplier audits, enabling safe reporting channels, and completing an annual review, Edenpark Storage reinforces its commitment to responsible trade and respect for human rights. We will continue to strengthen our controls and uphold these obligations with care, vigilance, and integrity.
