Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

The Modern Slavery Act 2015 seeks to address the role of businesses in preventing modern slavery from occurring in organisations and their supply chains.

Although there is a low risk of modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains, AHDB remains vigilant and committed to ensure any such instances are not taking place. Our procurement and HR policies underpin this commitment to upholding workplace rights in our supply chains and for our employees and we promote our Code of Conduct to ensure a respectful working environment which does not accept discrimination, bullying, harassment and other forms of acceptable behaviour.

Our statement, approved annually by the AHDB Board, outlines key areas of our operations and supply chains that are determined to be a higher risk potential slavery and human trafficking, and what measures are in place to manage and mitigate those risks. This statement meets AHDB’s obligation under Section 54 of the Act.
