Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement – January 2024

1. Introduction

This statement is made on behalf of Sleep Solutions Ltd 

The Act requires companies to explain on an annual basis the steps taken to prevent acts of modern slavery and human trafficking from occurring in their businesses and supply chains. 

We are committed to carrying on our business operations responsibly with a zero-tolerance approach to any slavery and human trafficking incidents which are proven to have taken place. We remain committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all business dealings and relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking do not take place in our own business or in our supply chains.

2. About Sleep Solutions Ltd

We provide products  predominately tailored to customers between the ages of 18 & 70 in the UK.  The Kallysleep brand has been developed over the years to become a recognised and trusted brand among UK consumers.

The nature of our products means we purchase a variety of goods from suppliers within the UK and internationally. Our supply chain is simple and mostly UK based with 2 suppliers based in Turkey.

3. Risk Assessments

Sleep Solutions continues to operate a risk assessment process for new suppliers to assess any modern slavery risk which has been embedded in to our Procurement & Supplier Management onboarding process.

In respect of existing suppliers, we previously implemented a risk assessment process in respect of all existing suppliers. As part of our ongoing monitoring of our modern slavery risk, in 2023 we re-examined our existing suppliers across the Sleep Solutions business to assess the potential for any residual modern slavery risk. All other areas were identified as low risk from a modern slavery perspective and therefore no further action was required in respect of those existing suppliers.

4. Due Diligence Questionnaires

Any suppliers identified as high risk (following the risk assessment process outlined above) are subject to further due diligence procedures, including the completion of a due diligence questionnaire designed to further assess the level of risk and the steps required to monitor and manage that risk.

We remain committed to working with our suppliers to ensure business is conducted ethically and honestly. This has involved first checking that suppliers have understood the questions and answered them correctly followed by, if required, working with them to implement corrective action plans to rectify areas of non-compliance. This remains an ongoing process. Should a supplier fail to co-operate with our due diligence procedures and/or any corrective action plan or otherwise demonstrate little progress despite realistic time frames being agreed and set, we have and will consider our future relationship with that supplier.

5. Policies & Training

We are committed to working responsibly and with integrity, as set out in our Personal Standards & Ethics Policy. We require the highest standards of personal and professional honesty and integrity from our employees in all business dealings and relationships, including with our customers, other employees and suppliers. 

Our Anti-Slavery and Anti-Human Trafficking Policy is also communicated regularly throughout our organisation.

Our policies are used as the basis for our employees to be able to detect and prevent acts of modern slavery. These policies also form part of our corporate induction process for new employees.

In line with our Anti-Slavery and Anti-Human Trafficking Policy, it is a requirement that all new agreements with suppliers must be in writing and contractually oblige the supplier to comply with the Act. Where possible, it is a requirement that each agreement shall give Sleep Solutions Ltd a right of termination in the event that the contractor or supplier is proven to have committed slavery or human trafficking offences or to have acted in a manner inconsistent with the Act. We have, therefore, developed and implemented into our template agreements, specific contractual clauses covering these points. These are reviewed and enhanced where it is felt necessary.

We have continued to distribute training material to employees through our e-learning platform to ensure a consistent, high level of awareness and understanding of modern slavery is achieved. This is reviewed and will continue to be rolled out to employees on an annual basis. It has and will also continue to form part of the induction process for new employees.

6. Auditing & Ongoing Compliance

We remain committed to preventing slavery and human trafficking. As a result of structural changes within our businesses following the Covid-19 pandemic, we are currently reviewing our processes. As part of this, we remain keen to further develop our processes to ensure slavery and human trafficking do not take place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains. As our processes evolve, we aim to identify and monitor appropriate performance indicators.

7. Summary

We have systems in place to:

• Identify and assess potential risk areas within our businesses and supply chains;

• Mitigate the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our supply chains;

• Monitor potential risk areas in our supply chains;

• Train employees to raise awareness of modern slavery and how to report it; and

• Protect whistleblowers.

We will continually review and refine these processes to strive to operate to the highest standards at all times.
