Rooost Anti-Slavery Policy

Preamble: At Rooost, we recognise the profound impact that businesses can have on society, and we are committed to ensuring that our operations contribute positively to the global community. In alignment with our core values of integrity, responsibility, and empathy, we hereby declare our Anti-Slavery Policy, a groundbreaking initiative aimed at eradicating modern slavery and human trafficking from our supply chains and operations.
1. Commitment to Human Rights: Rooost unequivocally opposes all forms of slavery and human trafficking. We are dedicated to upholding the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and ensuring that our business practices respect the dignity and rights of every individual.
2. Supply Chain Transparency: Rooost is committed to achieving transparency in our supply chain. We will conduct thorough assessments of our suppliers, ensuring that they adhere to ethical labour practices and comply with international human rights standards. Suppliers will be required to disclose information about their workforce, recruitment processes, and efforts to eliminate slavery and human trafficking.
3. Risk Assessment and Due Diligence: We will conduct regular risk assessments to identify and evaluate the potential risks of slavery and human trafficking within our supply chain. Through robust due diligence processes, we will work collaboratively with suppliers to address and mitigate any identified risks, fostering an environment of continuous improvement.
4. Ethical Recruitment Practices: Rooost is committed to promoting ethical recruitment practices within our workforce and supply chain. We will ensure that all employees are hired and retained through fair and transparent processes, free from any form of coercion or exploitation.
5. Training and Awareness: To ensure the successful implementation of this policy, Rooost will provide training to employees, suppliers, and other relevant stakeholders. This training will focus on recognising and addressing the risks of slavery and human trafficking and promoting a culture of vigilance against such practices.
6. Reporting Mechanisms: Rooost encourages the reporting of any concerns or suspicions related to slavery and human trafficking within the organisation. We will establish confidential reporting mechanisms to facilitate the timely and appropriate handling of such reports.
7. Continuous Improvement: This Anti-Slavery Policy is a living document, subject to regular review and improvement. Rooost will engage with stakeholders, including NGOs, industry partners, and experts, to stay informed about emerging best practices and technologies to further enhance our efforts in combating modern slavery.
By adopting this Anti-Slavery Policy, Rooost reiterates its commitment to being a responsible corporate citizen, contributing to the global movement for the abolition of slavery, and creating a world where human rights are upheld, and every individual can live a life of dignity and freedom.
