OUR BUSINESS, STRUCTURE AND SUPPLY CHAINS
This statement, made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, sets out the approach taken by Scotwork Limited to understand all potential modern slavery risks related to its business, and the actions undertaken to mitigate any such risks.

Scotwork Limited is committed to delivering high standards of corporate governance and a key element of this is managing Scotwork in a socially responsible way. Scotwork aims to employ the highest ethical and professional standards and always to comply with all local laws and regulations applicable to our business; it follows that Scotwork is absolutely committed to preventing slavery and human trafficking in its corporate activities and its supply chains. This commitment is emphasised in our employee training programmes and company policies. Scotwork also expects the same high standards which we set for ourselves from those parties with whom we engage, such as our suppliers and customers. Due to the nature of our business and our approach to governance, we assess that there is very low risk of slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chains. However, we aim to periodically review the effectiveness of the relevant policies and procedures that we have in place. We do not have key performance indicators in relation to slavery or human trafficking as any instance would be expected to be a breach of law, our supplier standards and/or our company policies.

STEPS TO ASSESS AND MANAGE RISKS
Scotwork Limited recognises that there is a risk of modern slavery in any area of our business where there is:
• Migrant labour (country to country or within a country)
