We are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chains or in any part of our business. We fully support the aims of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and are committed to complying with applicable anti-slavery and human trafficking laws. Our Anti-Slavery & Human Trafficking statement reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our organisation or supply chains.
We have a zero tolerance to slavery and human trafficking and we expect all those in our supply chain and contractors to comply with our values. We include appropriate clauses in our supply contracts.
We have in place systems to encourage the reporting of concerns and the protection of whistle blowers as reflected in our Whistleblower Policy.
We continue to review our policies, training, processes, operations and supplier relationships to comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and will implement any appropriate or necessary actions to ensure ongoing compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
Bottomline operates the following policies that support our approach to the identification of modern slavery risks and steps to be taken to prevent slavery and human trafficking in our operations:
We have revised this policy to ensure our continued compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015. The policy gives workers, contractors and other business partner's guidance on slavery and human trafficking and the measures taken by Bottomline to tackle slavery and human trafficking in its business and its supply chains.
We encourage all our employees, customers and other business partners to report any concerns related to the direct activities, or the supply chains of the organisation. This includes any circumstances that may give rise to an enhanced risk of slavery or human trafficking. Bottomline’s Whistleblower Policy is designed to provide all employees with the ability to report any violations of Bottomline’s Code of Ethics without fear of retaliation. Additionally, the Whistleblower Policy has been specifically designed to ensure that any employee who wishes to raise a concern on an anonymous basis can do so.
Bottomline’s Code of Ethics is the code by which directors, officers, employees and contractors of Bottomline are expected to conduct themselves at all times. All Bottomline business is to be conducted with the highest standards of integrity and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. This code applies to Bottomline and all of its subsidiaries worldwide.
Bottomline uses only specified, reputable employment agencies to source labour and always verifies the practices of any new agency it is using before accepting workers from that agency. All new agencies are required to sign an agreement to conform to the standards of Bottomline.
Bottomline continues to conduct appropriate due diligence when considering taking on new suppliers and the review of its existing suppliers. Where possible we build long standing relationships with local suppliers and make clear our expectations of business behaviour as reflected in our Code of Ethics.
To ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and our business, we provide training to all relevant employees regarding: • how to identify the signs of slavery and human trafficking; and • what initial steps should be taken if slavery or human trafficking is suspected.
This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes our Group's Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement.
