Modern Slavery Policy

Last updated: June 2025

Modern Slavery Policy - Talentshed Group Ltd

At Talentshed, we're committed to operating responsibly, ethically, and with integrity. We fully support the principles of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and take a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking across all aspects of our business and supply chain.

Our Commitment

Modern slavery can take many forms – including forced labour, human trafficking, servitude, and child labour. We are committed to preventing these practices and ensuring that everyone we work with is treated with dignity, respect, and fairness.

The commitment extends to:

Our own team
The candidates we support
The clients we partner with
Our suppliers and service providers

Our Business and Supply Chain

Talentshed is a recruitment business that connects people with purpose-led employers in sectors such as optical, audiology, healthcare, and education. While the risk of modern slavery in our direct business operations is low, we remain vigilant and proactive in assessing and managing any potential risks – particularly when working with third-party suppliers or contractors.

Due Diligence and Risk Management

We take a risk-based approach to tackling modern slavery.

This includes:

Ensuring our recruitment practices are fair, transparent, and compliant with all relevant laws
Vetting clients and suppliers to ensure they align with our ethical standards
Educating our team to spot signs of exploitation and raise concerns where necessary

Raising Concerns

We encourage anyone – internally or externally – to speak up if they suspect modern slavery or unethical behaviour. Concerns can be raised in confidence by contacting our team at hello@talentshed.co.uk.

Continuous Improvement

We regularly review our policies, processes, and partnerships to identify areas for improvement. As we grow, we remain committed to strengthening our approach to ethical recruitment and supply chain responsibility.
