Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking Statement

Introduction | 

Modern slavery is being recognised as a crime and an immoral act that deprives a person’s liberty and dignity for another person’s gain. It is a real problem for millions of people around the world, including many in developed countries, who are being kept and exploited in various forms of slavery. Every company is at risk of being involved in this crime through its own operations and its supply chain | 

At . I N S P I R I N G { dotinspiring } we have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and are fully committed to preventing slavery and human trafficking in our operation and supply chain. We have taken concrete steps to tackle modern slavery, as outlined in our statement.
