Modern Slavery Statement for Fortisgreen Storage

Fortisgreen Storage is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our zero-tolerance policy toward forced labour, human trafficking, debt bondage, child labour, and any form of exploitation within our operations and supply chain. We recognise that modern slavery can occur in many industries and can be hidden behind complex sourcing arrangements. For that reason, Fortisgreen Storage takes a proactive approach to prevention, due diligence, and continuous improvement.

As a storage business, our responsibilities extend across procurement, facilities management, logistics support, and third-party services. We expect every worker, contractor, and business partner to uphold the same standards. Our commitment is underpinned by ethical sourcing, responsible employment practices, and clear oversight of suppliers. Fortisgreen Storage will not knowingly engage with any organisation that benefits from or enables exploitative practices.

Our Zero-Tolerance Approach

We maintain a strict zero-tolerance policy against modern slavery in all forms. Any confirmed breach, credible suspicion, or refusal to cooperate with our due diligence requirements may result in immediate corrective action, contract suspension, or termination. This applies equally to direct employees and to labour provided through agencies, subcontractors, and outsourced providers. Our modern slavery risk controls are reviewed regularly to ensure they remain effective and relevant.

Supplier Due Diligence and Audits

Fortisgreen Storage carries out supplier audits to assess labour standards, wage practices, recruitment methods, identity verification, and working conditions. These audits may be announced or unannounced, depending on risk level and supplier history. We prioritise higher-risk categories such as cleaning, security, transport, packaging, maintenance, and temporary labour. New suppliers are screened before onboarding, and ongoing storage supply chain reviews help us identify warning signs early.

Where risks are identified, we require the supplier to implement a corrective action plan with measurable deadlines. Failure to improve may lead to disengagement. We also expect suppliers to cascade these standards through their own supply chains. By applying consistent checks, Fortisgreen Storage strengthens oversight and reinforces the principles of responsible business across the wider Fortisgreen storage network.

Training and Awareness

Employees involved in procurement, contract management, and operations receive training on recognising the indicators of modern slavery, including restricted movement, confiscated documents, unexplained deductions, and signs of coercion. Training also emphasises respectful escalation and the importance of accurate record keeping. This helps build a workplace culture where concerns are identified early and dealt with properly.

Reporting Channels and Escalation

Fortisgreen Storage encourages anyone with a concern to speak up promptly through internal reporting channels. Reports may be made to line managers, senior leadership, or designated compliance personnel, and concerns can be raised confidentially. We prohibit retaliation against anyone who raises a genuine concern in good faith. All reports are investigated promptly, sensitively, and with appropriate confidentiality. Where necessary, we work with suppliers and relevant authorities to support remediation and protect affected individuals.

Our response process is designed to ensure that potential victims are safeguarded and that evidence is preserved. If an issue is substantiated, Fortisgreen Storage will take decisive action and monitor progress until the risk is resolved. We also review recurring themes from reports to improve controls, policies, and training. This approach supports transparency and accountability throughout the Fortisgreen Storage modern slavery statement framework.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement

The effectiveness of this statement and the measures supporting it are reviewed annually by senior management. The review considers audit findings, supplier performance, employee training completion, incident reports, and changes in legal or sector risk. Where needed, Fortisgreen Storage updates its policies, risk assessments, and procurement requirements to maintain strong prevention controls.

This annual review also informs our future priorities, including deeper supplier engagement, improved audit coverage, and stronger documentation standards. We believe that progress depends on clear leadership, regular monitoring, and a shared commitment to responsible operations. Fortisgreen Storage continues to strengthen its approach so that modern slavery risks are identified, reduced, and addressed across the business.

This statement reflects the values of Fortisgreen Storage and our determination to operate ethically at all times. We expect every person connected with our organisation to support these standards and to help uphold dignity, safety, and fairness in every part of the Fortisgreen Storage supply chain.
