Modern Slavery Commitment

Modern slavery is a term used to encapsulate various forms of servitude, forced or compulsory labour and human trafficking. The Money Advice Trust and its operating names National Debtline, Business Debtline and Wiseradviser (all referred to as “the Trust”) are committed to conducting our business responsibly and have a zero- tolerance approach to the issue across our business and supply chain.

We realise that modern slavery is a complex and growing global issue that affects millions of people around the world. The Trust is committed to ensuring its practices combat slavery, including forced, bonded or compulsory labour and human trafficking. We strive to ensure that modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in our supply chains. We are a Living Wage Foundation recognised employer, with all our staff receiving at least a real living wage.

The Trust has appropriate policies in place which reference and address the risk of modern slavery and these include:

• Whistleblowing
• Anti-Corruption and Bribery
• Recruitment
• Procurement

The Trust uses a wide range of suppliers to conduct its business, with the majority of these being from within the UK. Our financial procedures set out the due diligence that is undertaken to ensure that there is no slavery or human trafficking in its supply chains.
