The Legal Risk Score of a Modern Slavery Policy Template is Low

Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:

  • The document assigns significant responsibilities to individuals at all levels to monitor and report modern slavery, which could place pressure on employees to interpret and act on complex situations without clear guidelines.
  • There is a reliance on the vigilance and proactive behavior of those within the company to recognise and report indicators of modern slavery, potentially leading to inconsistencies in enforcement and recognition of such practices.
  • The policy requires compliance with modern slavery laws and practices but does not specify detailed procedural steps for addressing identified issues, which might lead to varied interpretations and implementations of the policy.

Users familiar with compliance documents might find this document useful but should be aware of the need for possibly further detailed procedural development to ensure consistent application and effectiveness.
