Modern Slavery Statement for Roehampton Storage

Roehampton Storage 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 working practices across our operations and supply chains. We recognise that Roehampton Storage has a responsibility to ensure that our workplace and the businesses we work with uphold the highest ethical standards. Our zero-tolerance policy applies to all forms of slavery and servitude, whether direct or indirect, and we expect every employee, contractor, and supplier to share this commitment.

We acknowledge that modern slavery can take many forms, including debt bondage, hidden coercion, child labour, and the withholding of identity documents. In response, Roehampton Storage has established internal controls designed to reduce risk, strengthen oversight, and support transparent decision-making. These controls are reviewed regularly and are embedded into procurement, recruitment, and operational practices. By maintaining clear standards, Roehampton Storage Ltd aims to prevent abuse and ensure that our activities are carried out responsibly.

Our approach begins with due diligence at the point of engagement. Before working with any supplier or service provider, we assess their labour standards, employment practices, and commitment to lawful working conditions. Where risk is identified, we request further evidence and may impose additional safeguards. We also expect our supply partners to demonstrate that their own suppliers are managed with equal care. This layered approach helps Roehampton Self Storage reduce the chance of modern slavery entering our business relationships.

Supplier monitoring is an essential part of our ethical governance. Supplier audits are conducted according to risk level, category, and geography, with higher-risk relationships subject to more frequent scrutiny. These audits may include document checks, management interviews, workforce verification, and site observations. If non-compliance is found, we require corrective action within a defined timeframe and reserve the right to suspend or terminate the relationship where necessary. This process reinforces our commitment to responsible trading and protects the reputation of Roehampton Storage services.

We also believe that prevention depends on awareness. Staff involved in recruitment, procurement, and supplier management receive guidance on recognising warning signs of exploitation, such as unusual wage practices, restricted movement, or a lack of worker control over personal documents. Training supports early intervention and ensures that concerns are raised quickly. In addition, our internal policies are written to be clear, practical, and accessible so that everyone understands their role in supporting Roehampton Storage's anti-slavery approach.

To encourage openness, we provide confidential reporting channels for employees, contractors, and third parties who wish to raise concerns in good faith. Reports may relate to suspected exploitation, unethical labour practices, or breaches of our standards. All concerns are treated seriously and investigated promptly, with appropriate protection against retaliation. This helps create a culture where issues can be raised early, enabling Roehampton Storage Company to respond decisively and responsibly.

The effectiveness of this statement is reviewed annually by senior management. Each review considers changes in legislation, risk exposure, supplier performance, training completion, and any incidents or allegations raised during the year. Where improvements are identified, actions are assigned and tracked to completion. This cycle of review ensures that our commitment remains active rather than symbolic and that Roehampton Storage continues to strengthen its safeguards over time.

We understand that eradicating modern slavery requires continual vigilance, collaboration, and accountability. For that reason, our obligations are built into the way we buy, hire, and manage relationships. Any supplier engaged with Roehampton Storage UK must comply with applicable labour laws and our ethical expectations. Where a failure is discovered, we will act promptly and proportionately, prioritising remediation, worker safety, and lawful conduct.

By publishing this Modern Slavery Statement, Roehampton Storage reaffirms its determination to operate ethically and transparently. We will continue to refine our procedures, strengthen our supplier oversight, and support awareness across our organisation. Through consistent action, strong governance, and a zero-tolerance policy, Roehampton Storage remains committed to preventing exploitation and promoting fair treatment throughout our business and supply chain.
