Our Anti-Slavery Policy reflects our promise to work ethically and with integrity, actively promoting a workplace that is free from physical and verbal harassment. The policy influences all operational procedures at Solstice Distribution Limited.

We operate and work with fair employment practices, including:

All employees of Solstice Distribution Limited are expected to act in compliance with the ‘Act’ at all times.

In our efforts to mitigate the risk of slavery and human trafficking within our supply chains, at Solstice Distribution Limited, we operate due diligence on our suppliers, carrying out credit and risk checks, as well as online searches, prior to them joining our network of preferred suppliers, to ensure compliance with the Act and to that there are no current cases of conviction for modern slavery. Our procedures are designed to: establish, assess and monitor areas of potential risk in our business and supply chains; reduce the risk of any modern slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chains; and provide adequate protection for whistleblowers

While we find that we operate in lower risk sectors and locations, we carry out regular audits to evaluate the nature and extent of our exposure to the risk of modern slavery occurring in our supply chains.
