Although we are a small aviation consultancy and are not legally required to publish a statement under the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015, Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018, or equivalent legislation, we voluntarily adopt these principles to reflect our values and global responsibility.

forced labour

human trafficking

child labour
-
servitude
-
debt bondage

coercive or exploitative labour practices

-
independent consultants

reviewing the ethical practices of key service providers
-
ensuring suppliers adhere to applicable labour and human-rights laws

monitoring for any indicators of modern slavery or trafficking

avoiding partnerships with entities operating in high-risk environments without appropriate safeguards
-
