1) Our commitment
Enviro Coffee Co is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all business relationships. We implement proportionate systems and controls to reduce the risk of modern slavery and human trafficking within our business and supply chains.

4) Due diligence
We apply a risk-based approach to due diligence, which may include:
- Supplier onboarding checks and questionnaire
- Contractual clauses requiring modern slavery compliance
- Risk review by sector and geography
- Enhanced checks for higher-risk suppliers and subcontractors
- Corrective action plans where issues are identified
5) Risk assessment & management
Modern slavery risks can be higher in complex multi-tier supply chains, labour agency use, and where oversight is limited. We focus enhanced measures where risk indicators are present.
- Escalation route for concerns
- Review of supplier practices where necessary
- Proportionate remediation and improvement actions
6) Measuring effectiveness (KPIs)
- % of new suppliers screened for modern slavery risk
- % of suppliers confirming commitment to ethical labour standards
- # of relevant staff trained
- # of concerns raised and resolved
- # of corrective action plans completed
7) Training & awareness
We provide suitable guidance and training for employees and contractors who manage suppliers or operate in higher-risk areas, so they can recognise red flags and escalate concerns.
