Modern Slavery Statement for Jet Washing Services

Our commitment to preventing modern slavery in all aspects of our jet washing and pressure cleaning operations is unequivocal. We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards forced labour, human trafficking and labour exploitation across our pressure washing, power washing and high-pressure cleaning activities. This statement sets out how our business identifies, prevents and responds to risks of modern slavery in our own operations and in our supply chains.

We cover all areas of our mobile and site-based jet washing services, including subcontracted teams, equipment suppliers and third-party labour providers. Our policies apply to anyone who works for, or on behalf of, the organisation. All employees and contractors are expected to respect human rights and comply with our standards, and managers are accountable for implementing them.

Our recruitment processes are designed to verify identity and right to work, reduce the risk of coercion, and ensure fair terms of employment. We provide clear information to workers about pay, hours and conditions. Employment checks, documented contracts and transparent payroll procedures are central to reducing the potential for exploitation in the jet-washing, pressure-washing and power-cleaning sectors.

We expect the same high standards from our suppliers and subcontractors. Contracts and purchase terms for cleaning chemicals, pressure washing equipment and labour supply explicitly prohibit forced labour and require compliance with applicable modern slavery laws. We include anti-slavery clauses as a condition of doing business and reserve the right to terminate relationships if breaches are identified.

Supplier audits and due diligence

Our supplier assurance framework is built around risk-based due diligence and regular supplier audits. Key elements include:

• Risk assessment of suppliers based on geography, nature of services (eg mobile jet-washing teams), and worker vulnerability.
• Periodic on-site or remote audits focusing on recruitment, working hours, pay records and accommodation where provided.
• Corrective action plans and re-assessment to ensure persistent issues are resolved.

Our reporting channels are designed to be accessible and confidential. Workers, subcontractors and third parties can raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Reports may be made through internal hotlines or designated company channels; all reports are taken seriously and investigated promptly. We maintain protections for whistleblowers and provide support to those affected by potential exploitation.

Reporting channels and response

When an allegation is made, our process includes immediate risk assessment, protection for vulnerable individuals, and, where necessary, cooperation with law enforcement. We will take remedial action, which may include suspension of suppliers, termination of contracts, or referral to specialist support services for victims. Our approach balances rapid protective action with fair investigation.

We carry out regular training for staff, supervisors and procurement teams to recognise indicators of modern slavery in the pressure-cleaning and jet-washing sectors, including irregular working patterns, retention of identity documents and signs of coercion. Training reinforces the zero-tolerance stance and practical steps to report concerns.

We maintain a programme of ongoing risk assessment covering our own operations and our supply chain. This includes mapping suppliers of cleaning solutions, equipment, labour and subcontracted maintenance services to identify higher-risk tiers for additional scrutiny. Where risks are identified, mitigation measures are applied and monitored.

To ensure accountability, the board (or equivalent senior governance body) approves this statement and monitors implementation of anti-slavery measures. Procurement, operations and HR functions share responsibility for compliance and continuous improvement across all pressure washing and jet-washing services.

Annual review and continuous improvement — we review this statement and our policies at least once a year, or more frequently if required by changes in operations or risk profile. The annual review examines the effectiveness of supplier audits, training uptake, incident response and remediation outcomes. Findings lead to strengthened controls, revised supplier requirements and targeted training to address gaps.

In conclusion, our modern slavery prevention programme for jet washing, pressure washing and related services is founded on prevention, detection and remediation. We are committed to working collaboratively with suppliers, industry peers and stakeholders to eradicate exploitation. Continuous monitoring, robust supplier audits, clear reporting channels and an annual review cycle ensure that our zero-tolerance policy is enforced and improved over time.
