Mitratech applique une politique de tolérance zéro à l'égard de toute forme d'esclavage moderne, y compris la servitude, la traite des êtres humains et le travail forcé. Nous nous engageons à agir de manière éthique, intègre et transparente dans toutes nos relations d'affaires et à mettre en place des systèmes et des contrôles efficaces pour nous prémunir contre l'esclavage moderne au sein de notre entreprise et de notre chaîne d'approvisionnement.
Nos activités
This statement covers the activities of Mitratech and its subsidiary companies (as defined under the Companies Act 2006):
- Mitratech s'engage à répondre aux besoins complexes des professionnels du droit et de la conformité.
- Mitratech a des bureaux aux États-Unis, au Royaume-Uni, en Inde et en Australie, et la majorité de ses activités se déroulent aux États-Unis. Nos sous-traitants et fournisseurs sont principalement basés aux États-Unis et au Royaume-Uni.
- Les produits, les services et le développement de logiciels sont généralement fournis en interne par Mitratech, plutôt que par des tiers.
Évaluation des risques
Mitratech maintains on-going due-diligence of its material suppliers to assess whether any particular risks of slavery or human trafficking within its supply chains or any part of our business. We have zero tolerance to slavery and human trafficking. We evaluate our relationships with professional or business services suppliers, such as those who provide hosting support services to identify any potential risks. In part, we manage this risk through the use of suppliers whom are considered to be reputable, and we have specifically requested all material regular suppliers to confirm that their own business activities and supply chain do not involve slavery or human trafficking.
Nos politiques
We have in place systems to:
- Identify and assess potential risk areas in our supply chains.
- Mitigate the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our supply chains.
- Monitor potential risk areas in our supply chains.
- Protect whistle blowers.
We also operate a number of internal policies to ensure we conduct business in an ethical and transparent manner. We continuously review and update all our policies. These include:
- Corporate Social Responsibility Policy. This policy set out our commitment to promoting equal human rights for all, as well as monitoring the social, economic, and environmental impacts of our business.
- Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy. This policy underpins our commitment to maintaining high standards of ethics, morality and legality in all areas where our business is carried out.
- Politique de recrutement. Nous vérifions l'admissibilité au travail au Royaume-Uni de tous nos employés afin de nous prémunir contre la traite des êtres humains ou le fait que des personnes soient forcées de travailler contre leur gré.
- Politique de dénonciation. Nous appliquons une politique de dénonciation afin que tous les employés puissent, sans crainte de représailles, faire part de leurs inquiétudes concernant des comportements et des pratiques inappropriés au sein de notre entreprise ou de notre chaîne d'approvisionnement.
- Manuel de l'employé. Ce manuel explique notre code de conduite, la manière dont nous nous comportons en tant qu'organisation et la manière dont nous attendons de nos employés et de nos fournisseurs qu'ils agissent.
Nos indicateurs de performance
We will know the effectiveness of the steps that we are taking to ensure that slavery and/or human trafficking is not taking place within our business or supply chain (i) by monitoring how we and our suppliers perform against our standards and policies and (ii) if no reports are received from employees, suppliers, the public or law enforcement agencies to indicate that modern slavery practices have been identified.
