Modern Slavery Statement

Modern slavery is a crime, consisting of slavery, servitude, compulsory and forced labour and human trafficking. All forms of modern slavery are a violation of fundamental human rights and have a devastating and depriving effect on a person’s individual freedoms, in return for personal or commercial gain.

Pendennis Shipyard Limited takes a zero-tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery and is working to ensure its systems and controls are effective in safeguarding all members of its organisation from any form of modern slavery; this includes any risk in its supply chain.

As part of our commitment to combating slavery and human trafficking, we are working to consolidate our discussions and advice on the matter into an Anti – Slavery Policy, which will be published in the September 2019 addition of our Employment Manual.

In order to raise awareness amongst staff, distributors and suppliers, we will also display posters on the subject throughout our premises and attach a flyer to all formal documentation issued; for example, payslips and contracts.

Furthermore, we intend to brief staff using the appropriate videography provided to us by the Home Office.

Staff will be encouraged, empowered and expected to report any concerns to Senior Management, who will act upon them.


ORGANISATION STRUCTURE
Pendennis Shipyard Limited designs, manufactures and refits luxury yachts from its UK premises at Falmouth, Cornwall. It has an annual turnover of fifty million pounds, over four hundred employees and a broad network of suppliers from all over the world; financial year end is 31 December.


SUPPLY CHAINS
Pendennis Shipyard Limited acquires goods and services form a broad range of global suppliers and appreciates the potential for risk in that supply chain, which includes the possibility of modern slavery.

We continually work to improve our supply chain processes by conducting due diligence on all suppliers. Going forward, we will check that all parts of their operations meet the standards of our Anti – Slavery Policy, or, in the alternative, adhere to their own policy, which must be of similar quality.

We recognise the importance of taking a more proactive role in making our supply chain more transparent, including attending facilities and having more regular contact with key contacts.


OUR POLICIES ON SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING
By September 2019 we will have published an Anti – Slavery Policy in our Employment Manual and will thereafter amend any other policies, such as our Recruitment Policy, in the hope of maximising our staff’s awareness of modern slavery.


OUR EFFECTIVENESS IN COMBATING SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING
Pendennis Shipyard Limited will review the effectiveness of its anti – slavery practices at the end of each financial year, to ensure that no slavery or human trafficking is taking place within its business or supply chain.

For example, it will act transparently by disclosing the number of reports received from its employees, the public and law enforcement agencies and illustrate how they have been responded to; the level of awareness and understanding of modern slavery across the business, supply chain and distributor network will also be monitored.

This statement is made pursuant to the Modern Slavery Act 2015 section 54(1) and constitutes our organisation’s slavery and human trafficking statement for the period 01 January – 31 December 2018.
