Modern Slavery Statement

Basildon Borough Council (the council) is committed to opposing Modern Slavery (and Human Trafficking) through its roles as a public sector organisation, an employer and community leader. The council will undertake a preventative approach to modern slavery within its corporate responsibilities and activities.

This annual statement sets out the council's actions to understand all potential modern slavery risks related to our activities and to put in place steps to eliminate acts of modern slavery within our business and in our supply chains, sub-contractors, and partners.

The council is committed to preventing slavery and human trafficking in all its activities, and to ensuring its supply chains are also free of this. The publication of this Annual Statement is part of that commitment and highlights activities undertaken to address this.
