Modern Slavery Act Statement

Effective date: 9th June 2023

This Statement is published, on https://visi.fish, by Visifish Limited in accordance with the requirements of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. It outlines the steps taken by Visifish Limited to identify and eliminate the use of slavery and human trafficking in its business and its suppliers. This statement is reviewed and updated on the website annually.

We acknowledge modern slavery is a pressing issue and we are committed to doing all we can to ensure that slavery and human trafficking does not take place in our business or our supply chains. The risk that modern slavery could be part of our immediate supply chains continues to be assessed as extremely low.

During the last twelve months, we reviewed our existing suppliers and third-party contractors, which includes a contractual provision on compliance with the requirements of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. We continued our rigorous review of any new suppliers and business partners, which is designed to ensure that they undertake the necessary checks to eliminate slavery. We also provided all our staff with training, which has increased their awareness of the indicators of modern slavery in the workplace. Our Policies on Corporate Social Responsibility continue to require staff to report any suspected criminal acts or wrong doing, and a Whistleblowing Policy encourages reporting of any actual or suspected wrong-doing, including the use of slave labour.

To ensure that we do not inadvertently directly employ anyone who might themselves be slaves, we continue to use robust recruitment processes that are fully compliant with UK employment and regulatory laws. We undertake ‘right to work’ document checks and perform due diligence and background checks. We provide all our employees with an employment contract and provide market- related pay and rewards which are reviewed annually.

Future Action

We will continue with the following actions:

• to exert due diligence in our dealings with staff and service suppliers;
• to use only authorised intermediaries to sell its products, and those of their authorised representatives;
• to undertake robust reviews of both existing and new supply chains;
• and to train staff to maintain awareness.
