  1. Our Supply Chains

As a technology-focused company, our supply chains primarily involve software providers, cloud computing services, hardware suppliers, and outsourced IT consultants. While our risk exposure to modern slavery is lower than in traditional manufacturing industries, we acknowledge that risks may still exist in certain areas, including:

  • The sourcing of hardware components (e.g., computers, servers, and peripherals) from global manufacturers.
  • Outsourcing contracts with third-party service providers and subcontractors.
  • Freelancer and contractor agreements in different jurisdictions.

We are committed to ensuring that all our suppliers and partners uphold ethical business practices that align with our standards.

Pixel Dixel Limited has implemented several policies to mitigate risks related to modern slavery, including:

  • Supplier Code of Conduct – Requiring all vendors and partners to adhere to ethical sourcing and fair labour practices.
  • Recruitment and Employment Policy – Ensuring all hiring processes comply with UK employment laws, prohibiting forced labour and exploitation.
  • Whistleblowing Policy – Encouraging employees and stakeholders to report unethical practices, including suspected cases of modern slavery.
  • Risk Assessment Framework – Evaluating supply chain risks based on industry standards and geographical factors.

We conduct supplier vetting and due diligence to identify potential risks and ensure compliance with ethical labour standards.

  1. Risk Assessment and Mitigation

Pixel Dixel Limited acknowledges the potential risks of modern slavery in global technology supply chains and takes the following steps to mitigate these risks:

  • Conducting periodic risk assessments of our suppliers and service providers.
  • Ensuring contractual commitments from vendors regarding compliance with anti-slavery laws.
  • Engaging only with reputable suppliers that meet ethical and legal requirements.
  • Monitoring and reviewing working conditions of any third-party contractors or outsourced teams.
  1. Training and Awareness

We aim to educate our employees and business partners about modern slavery risks by:

  • Providing training programs on ethical sourcing and identifying risks of human trafficking.
  • Raising awareness among employees about reporting mechanisms for any concerns related to labour exploitation.
  • Engaging with external advisors and industry bodies to enhance our approach to responsible business practices.
  1. Effectiveness and Future Commitments

To measure our effectiveness in preventing modern slavery, we will:

  • Monitor supplier compliance through audits and due diligence.
