Modern Slavery

Modern Slavery Policy 

Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It takes many forms, including slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour, and human trafficking, all of  which involve the deprivation of a person's liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain. 

Cheeky Baby Products Ltd takes a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, and we are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all of our business dealings and  relationships, as well as implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to  ensure modern slavery does not exist anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply  chains. 

We are also committed to ensuring transparency in our own operations and in our approach  to combating modern slavery throughout our supply chains, in accordance with our disclosure obligations under the Modern Slavery Act. 

We expect the same high standards from all of our contractors, suppliers, and other  business partners, we will continue to include specific prohibitions against the use of forced,  compulsory, or trafficked labour, as well as anyone held in slavery or servitude, whether  adults or children, in our contracting processes, and we expect our suppliers to hold their  own suppliers to the same high standards. 

This policy applies to all individuals who work for us or on our behalf in any capacity,  including employees at all levels, directors, officers, agency workers, seconded workers,  volunteers, interns, agents, contractors, external consultants, third-party representatives,  and business partners. 

This policy is not part of any employee's employment contract, and we reserve the right to change it at any time.
