Modern Slavery Policy v.3

A) ORGANISATION

This statement applies to Broadcast Media Services Limited (BMS) (referred to in this statement as ‘the Organisation’). The information included in the statement refers to the financial year Dec 23-Dec 24.

  1. B) DEFINITIONS

The Organisation considers that modern slavery encompasses:

  • Human trafficking;
  • Forced work, through mental or physical threat;
  • Being owned or controlled by an employer through mental or physical abuse of the threat of abuse;
  • Being dehumanised, treated as a commodity or being bought or sold as property;
  • Being physically constrained or to have restrictions placed on freedom of movement.
  1. C) COMMITMENT

BMS acknowledges its responsibilities in relation to tackling modern slavery and commits to complying with the provisions in the Modern Slavery Act 2015. The Organisation understands that this requires an ongoing review of both its internal practices in relation to its labour force and, additionally, its supply chains.

BMS does not enter into business with any other organisation, in the United Kingdom or abroad, which knowingly supports or is found to involve itself in slavery, servitude and forced or compulsory labour. 

No labour provided to BMS in the pursuance of the provision of its own services is obtained by means of slavery or human trafficking. The Organisation strictly adheres to the minimum standards required in relation to its responsibilities under relevant employment legislation in England.

 

  1. D) SUPPLY CHAINS

In order to fulfil its activities, BMS has minimal supply chains as it is a service provider and a first-tier supplier.

  1. E) SLAVERY COMPLIANCE OFFICER

BMS has a Slavery Compliance Officer, to whom all concerns regarding modern slavery should be addressed, and who will then undertake relevant action with regard to the Organisations obligations in this regard.  

This statement is made in pursuance of Section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and will be reviewed for each financial year.
