Policy

Policy Statement

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. Perform Partners have a zero-tolerance approach to modern
slavery. We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings
and relationships.

Perform Partners are committed to ensuring there is transparency in our own business and
in our approach to tackling modern slavery throughout our supply chain. We expect the same
high standards from all of our contractors, suppliers and other business partners. As part of
our contracting processes, we include specific prohibitions against the use of forced,
compulsory or trafficked labour, or anyone held in slavery or servitude 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, external consultants, third-party representatives and
business partners.

Responsibility for the Policy

The Perform Partners management team has overall responsibility for ensuring this policy
complies with our legal and ethical obligations, and that all those under our control comply
with it. They also have 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 any required training.

Compliancy with the Policy

All employees must ensure that that they have read, understand and comply with this policy.

The prevention, detection and reporting of modern slavery in any part of our business or
supply chain is the responsibility of all those working for us or under our control. Employees
are required to avoid any activity that might lead to, or suggest, a breach of this policy.

Employees must notify their manager as soon as possible if they believe or suspect that a
conflict with this policy has occurred or may occur in the future.

Employees are encouraged to raise concerns about any issue of suspicion of modern slavery
in any parts of our business or the supply chains of any supplier tier at the earliest possible
stage.

If employees are unsure about whether a particular act, the treatment of workers more
generally, or their working conditions within any tier of our supply chain constitutes any of
the various forms of modern slavery, they must raise it with their line manager.

Perform Partners aim to encourage openness and will support anyone who raises genuine
concerns in good faith under this policy, even if they turn out to be mistaken. We are
committed to ensuring no one suffers any detrimental treatment as a result of reporting in
good faith their suspicion that modern slavery of whatever form is or may be taking place in
any part of our own business or in any part of our supply chain.

Communication and Awareness of this Policy

Training on this policy, and on the risk our business faces from modern slavery in its supply
chain will be given where needed.

Our zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery must be communicated to all suppliers,
contractors and business partners at the outset of our business relationship with them and
reinforced as appropriate thereafter.

Breaches of this policy

Any employee who breaches this policy will face disciplinary action, which could result in
dismissal for misconduct or gross misconduct.

We may terminate our relationship with other individuals and organisations working on our
behalf if they breach this policy.
