Modern Slavery Statement for Selfstorage Hollandpark

Selfstorage Hollandpark is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps we take to prevent modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitative practices within our operations and supply chains. Our approach is grounded in a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of slavery or servitude, and we expect the same commitment from everyone who works with us.

We recognise that modern slavery can occur in many forms and in many sectors, including facilities management, logistics, cleaning, construction, security, and procurement. To reduce this risk, Selfstorage Hollandpark applies clear governance standards, ethical expectations, and ongoing monitoring. We aim to create a business environment where dignity, transparency, and accountability are not optional, but essential.

Our policy framework is supported by training, due diligence, and documented controls. Team members with responsibility for hiring, procurement, and supplier management are encouraged to identify warning signs such as unusual recruitment fees, restricted movement, withheld documents, or unsafe working conditions. Any concerns are escalated promptly and handled in line with our internal procedures.

Supplier relationships are a central part of our risk management approach. Selfstorage Hollandpark expects suppliers, contractors, and service partners to comply with applicable labour laws, maintain lawful working conditions, and prohibit forced labour at every stage of their operations. Before engagement, suppliers may be assessed against risk criteria that consider geography, sector, labour intensity, and the nature of the goods or services provided.

Where risk is identified, we may request supporting information, contractual assurances, or corrective action plans. Supplier audits may be carried out on a planned or risk-based basis, either directly or through an appointed reviewer. These audits can include document checks, worker welfare assessments, site observations, and verification of employment practices. If a supplier fails to meet our standards, we will seek immediate remediation and may suspend or terminate the relationship if necessary.

We also recognise the importance of clear reporting channels. Employees, contractors, suppliers, and other stakeholders are encouraged to raise any concern about modern slavery or unethical conduct without fear of retaliation. Reports may be submitted through internal management channels, designated compliance routes, or any approved escalation process established for safeguarding concerns. All reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly, and handled with confidentiality where possible.

In addition to reporting options, our organisation promotes awareness so that people understand what modern slavery can look like and how to respond appropriately. We encourage a culture in which individuals feel safe to speak up and confident that concerns will be examined fairly. This commitment applies across our operations and extends to our supply chain partners, who are expected to cooperate fully with any investigation or review.

The effectiveness of this statement depends on continued evaluation and improvement. Annual review of our modern slavery controls is conducted to ensure that policies remain relevant, risks are properly assessed, and mitigation steps continue to reflect changing circumstances. During the review, we consider incidents, supplier performance, audit findings, staff awareness, and any updates in legal or ethical expectations. Where needed, we refine our procedures to strengthen prevention and response measures.

This statement reflects the commitment of Selfstorage Hollandpark to responsible business practice and respect for human rights. We understand that preventing modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility that requires vigilance, transparency, and decisive action. By maintaining a zero-tolerance policy, strengthening supplier audits, supporting reporting channels, and completing an annual review, we aim to uphold the highest standards across our business and supply chain.
