BetterTrack Ltd – Modern Slavery Statement

  • This policy is effective from 19th November 2023.

  • We take appropriate steps to ensure everyone who works for BetterTrack has their fundamental human rights respected and anyone we do business with upholds these principles.

  • This statement details policies, processes and actions we have taken to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking do not take place in our supply chains or our business.

  • It sets out the new and ongoing steps we are taking to address and prevent modern slavery taking place, both within our business and through our supply chains.

  • Slavery is illegal everywhere in the world, but despite that, there are currently an estimated 40.3 million people in modern slavery or victims of human trafficking across the globe. Out of the millions of people trapped in modern slavery, 16 million people are exploited by the private sector, so it is paramount that businesses take action to end these abhorrent practices.

  • At BetterTrack, we are committed to playing our role in eradicating modern slavery in all its forms from our business and supply chain. We are taking the appropriate steps to ensure that everyone who works for BetterTrack benefits from a working environment in which their fundamental human rights are respected and anyone that we do business with also upholds these principles.
