CMA is committed to acting ethically, responsibly and with integrity in everything we do.
We have zero tolerance for modern slavery, forced labour, human trafficking or any form of exploitation within our business or supply chain. We are committed to conducting business fairly and taking reasonable steps to ensure these practices have no place in the way we operate.
This policy reflects our commitment to protecting people, maintaining high ethical standards and working only with organisations that share those values.
Our Commitment
We are committed to:
- Preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all areas of our business.
- Acting with honesty, integrity and transparency in every business relationship.
- Working with suppliers and partners who operate responsibly and ethically.
- Complying with all relevant UK legislation, including the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
- Raising concerns where unethical practices are suspected.
Our Business
CMA is a UK-based digital agency providing design, development, marketing and digital strategy services.
As a professional services business, we consider the risk of modern slavery within our direct operations to be low. However, we recognise that our responsibility extends beyond our own business and includes the organisations we choose to work with.
Our Supply Chain
Our supply chain primarily consists of professional software providers, technology partners, creative suppliers and business service providers.
When selecting suppliers, we aim to work with organisations that demonstrate high standards of business ethics, employment practices and legal compliance.
Where appropriate, we may seek reassurance that suppliers:
- Comply with applicable employment laws.
- Treat workers fairly and lawfully.
- Operate free from forced labour or human trafficking.
- Maintain safe and appropriate working conditions.
Should concerns arise regarding any supplier’s practices, we will investigate appropriately and take action where necessary, including reviewing or ending the relationship.
Our People
We are committed to creating a workplace built on respect, fairness and opportunity.
Everyone working for or with CMA should:
- Be treated with dignity and respect.
- Work voluntarily and without coercion.
- Receive fair terms and conditions.
- Work in a safe, supportive environment.
- Have the confidence to raise concerns without fear of retaliation.
Reporting Concerns
Any employee, contractor or third party who believes modern slavery or unethical employment practices may exist within our business or supply chain is encouraged to raise their concerns immediately.
All reports will be treated seriously and investigated appropriately.
Responsibility
Responsibility for this policy sits with the Directors of CMA.
We are committed to regularly reviewing our policies, supplier relationships and business practices to ensure they continue to reflect our legal obligations and ethical standards.
Review
This policy will be reviewed periodically and updated where appropriate to reflect changes in legislation, business operations or recognised best practice.
