Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

The Red Kite Baby Co Ltd is committed to ensuring that its staff and any workers it supplies (directly or indirectly) are not subject to behaviour or threats that may amount to modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, or similar human rights abuses.

 

While not required by the Modern Slavery Act 2015 due to our turnover being below the statutory threshold, The Red Kite Baby Co Ltd has voluntarily adopted this statement as part of our commitment to ethical business practices. Our approach is consistent with our disclosure obligations under the Act, and we remain vigilant to any risks in our business or supply chains.

 

This statement sets out Red Kite’s actions to understand all potential modern slavery risks related to the business and to ensure steps are taken to prevent both slavery and human trafficking.

 

Our Business

Red Kite is an import and distribution company supplying juvenile products to retailers throughout the UK.

 

Our Policies

Red Kite’s Modern Slavery Policy, along with our Corporate Social Responsibility, Anti-Bribery, and Whistleblowing policies, reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships.

 

Our Processes for Managing Risk

To assess and manage the risk of modern slavery, we implement the following processes:

• Identify and assess potential risk areas when considering new suppliers.

• Regularly review existing supply chains.

• Re-audit suppliers or conduct spot checks where necessary.

• Protect whistleblowers through secure and confidential reporting channels.

 

After due consideration, we have not identified any significant risks of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking in our supply chain. However, we remain alert to the potential for problems and take proactive steps to mitigate any emerging risks.

 

Training

To maintain awareness and ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our business:

• Our Modern Slavery Policy is included in the Employee Handbook.

• All staff receive training as part of our induction programme.

 

Our Commitment

This statement has been approved by the Commercial Director and constitutes our modern slavery and human trafficking statement for the financial year ending 5 April 2026. It will be reviewed and updated annually.
