Anything is Possible Media Ltd. is not a relevant commercial organisation subject to Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. Nevertheless we consider it vital to have an Anti-Slavery Policy Statement in place to reflect our commitment to this issue and our compliance with the full requirements of the Act.
Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It takes various forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking, all of which have in common the deprivation of a person’s liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain.
The Company has a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, and we are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains.
We are also committed to ensuring there is transparency in our own business and in our approach to tackling modern slavery throughout our supply chains, consistent with the disclosure obligations of any organisation subject to the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
We expect the same high standards from all of our contractors, suppliers and other business partners, and as part of our contracting processes, in the coming year we will include specific prohibitions against the use of forced, compulsory or trafficked labour, or anyone held in slavery or servitude, whether adults or children, and we expect that our suppliers will hold their own suppliers to the same high standards.
This policy applies to all persons working for us or on our behalf in any capacity, including employees at all levels, directors, officers, agency workers, seconded workers, volunteers, interns, agents, contractors, external consultants, third-party representatives and business
partners.
Due to the nature of our operations, we have identified a low probability of our activities putting us in breach of the requirements of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
Anything is Possible has overall responsibility for ensuring this policy complies with our legal and ethical obligations, and that all those under our control comply with it.
The Company has primary and day-to-day responsibility for implementing this policy, monitoring its use and effectiveness, dealing with any queries about it, and auditing internal control systems and procedures to ensure they are effective in countering modern slavery.
Management at all levels are responsible for ensuring those reporting to them understand and comply with this policy and are given adequate and regular training on it and the issue of modern slavery in supply chains.
All employees and interested parties are invited to comment on this policy and suggest ways in which it might be improved. We are committed to providing adequate training for all employees to perform their duties in accordance with the requirements of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
Comments, suggestions and queries are encouraged and should be addressed to the CCO Mark Raymond: mark [at] aip.media.
