Modern Slavery Statement — Amani Care Ltd

Modern Slavery Statement

Our commitment under the Modern Slavery Act 2015 to eradicating slavery and human trafficking from our business and supply chains.

Financial year: 2025–2026

Amani Care Ltd is committed to driving out all acts of modern day slavery and human trafficking within its business and supply chains, including sub-contractors and partners. We have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and we expect the same commitment from all those we work with.

1Our Policy

Amani Care Ltd acknowledges its responsibilities under the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and is committed to ensuring transparency within our organisation and throughout our supply chains. This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Act and sets out the steps we have taken during the financial year 2025–2026 to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking are not occurring in any part of our business or supply chains.

We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships, and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains.

We recognise that the care sector can be a high-risk environment for labour exploitation. As a registered domiciliary care provider, we take our responsibility to protect our workforce — who may include migrant workers and individuals in vulnerable circumstances — very seriously.

2Our Structure & Supply Chains

Amani Care Ltd is a provider of domiciliary (home) care services operating across Barking, Dagenham, Redbridge and the wider Greater London area. We are registered with and regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) under the Health and Social Care Act 2008.

Our supply chains principally comprise:

  • Direct employment of care workers, including overseas nationals with the right to work in the UK
  • Recruitment and staffing agencies supplying temporary workers
  • Suppliers of care equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE) and related goods
  • Professional services suppliers (IT, payroll, legal, insurance)

We undertake due diligence when taking on new suppliers and regularly review existing supplier relationships. All suppliers are expected to comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct, which includes explicit requirements regarding modern slavery, forced labour and human trafficking.

3Due Diligence & Risk Assessment

To identify and mitigate the risk of modern slavery, we apply the following measures:

Right-to-work checks

We conduct robust right-to-work checks for all employees in accordance with the Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006, and enhanced DBS checks for all care staff.

Supplier due diligence

We assess the modern slavery and human trafficking risk profile of each new supplier before engagement. High-risk suppliers, particularly those supplying labour, are subject to enhanced review including audit where appropriate.

Whistleblowing

We maintain a clear Whistleblowing Policy that encourages employees, service users, contractors and business partners to report any concerns about modern slavery or labour exploitation, without fear of retaliation. Reports can be made confidentially.

Employee Code of Conduct

Our Code of Conduct sets out the standards of behaviour expected of all staff and makes clear that we will not tolerate, facilitate or condone any form of modern slavery or human trafficking.

Fair pay & working conditions

All employees are paid at or above the National Living Wage and receive written contracts of employment in plain English. We do not charge recruitment fees or retain workers' identity documents.

4Training & Awareness

To ensure all staff understand the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking, we provide mandatory training as part of induction and ongoing refresher training for all employees. Training covers:

  • How to recognise the signs of modern slavery, forced labour, and human trafficking
  • What to do if they suspect a colleague, service user or third party may be a victim
  • How and where to report concerns confidentially and safely
  • Amani Care Ltd's legal obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015

We also require our business partners, including staffing agencies and sub-contractors, to provide equivalent training to their own staff.

5Key Performance Indicators

We measure the effectiveness of our approach through the following indicators, which are reviewed by our Senior Management Team annually:

100% of employees complete modern slavery training at induction
Right-to-work checks completed for all employees before start date
All suppliers assessed against our Supplier Code of Conduct annually
Zero incidents of modern slavery identified or unreported this year

6Approval

This statement has been approved by the Senior Management Team of Amani Care Ltd and will be reviewed and updated each financial year in accordance with section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. It is published on our website to ensure transparency with our clients, employees, partners and the general public.
