ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE


At Enerveo Limited (formerly SSE Contracting) we currently have around 500 employees and work with a network of suppliers and subcontractors to deliver our electrical and mechanical services across the UK.


Compliance with Modern Slavery act 2015


We are fully committed to ensuring there are no incidences of modern slavery within the business, within our supply chain and with any partners we work with. This is primarily done through two main policies we have in place; our Procurement policy and our Human Right policy.


The main points from the policies which adhere to the modern slavery act are as follows:
• Confirms we have zero tolerance towards all occurrences of modern slavery in our business and in our supply chain;
• To support and be fully committed to upholding Human Rights International Standards and Legislation including modern slavery;
• The inclusion of a modern slavery clause in all new contracts requiring suppliers to address the risk of human rights abuse in relation to Enerveo's activities;
• We comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and publish an annual Modern Slavery Statement outlining the actions it has taken to address modern slavery, available on our company website;
• Raising Human Rights awareness to our Employees and ensuring understanding of modern slavery and the potential risks in our direct operations and supply chain through mandatory e-learning;
• Assessing our direct and supply chain operations for the risk of modern slavery and human rights abuses and works to mitigate any risks that may emerge.


Activities undertaken in the last year to address modern slavery


It is Enerveo Limited’s policy to not knowingly conduct business with those engaged with slavery and human trafficking and to cooperate with enforcement bodies in relation to investigations carried out by them in relation to slavery and human trafficking when required to do so.

Our Procurement Policy lays out our zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery in all forms with our own business and that of our supply chain. It provides for internal and external awareness of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, as well as the standards we expect from our supply chain. Our new supplier onboarding processes clearly identify the need for compliance with the Act as a mandatory part of doing business with us.


We expect our suppliers and contractors to cascade our zero-tolerance approach to include:
• The illegal use of forced or slave labour, servitude, human trafficking, debt bondage, forced or servile marriage, descent-based slavery, child labour or forced labour;
• Ensuring overall terms of employment are voluntary and the right to freedom of association and collective bargaining must be respected;
•Following all local, applicable laws pertaining to minimum age requirements, wages, the number of hours worked in a seven-day week, overtime, and benefits;
• Ensuring all materials incorporated into their products comply with the laws regarding human trafficking and slavery in the country or countries in which they carry on business and be able to demonstrate compliance with this requirement if requested to do so.


Furthermore, internally within in our business, we have implemented a payroll system which completes monthly minimum wage checks to ensure no one falls below this threshold. Further to this, our payroll team undergo external audits which randomly checks a selection of our employee’s payslips to again ensure compliance. We work with an external provider who conduct ID checks, right to work checks and DBS checks to ensure employees are compliant with UK law and suitable for the role.

We have also committed to the real living wage foundation which not only ensures all of our employees are paid the real living wage, it ensures our supply chain are also paying their staff and contractors the minimum wage. As part of the commitment, we are obligated to only work with suppliers and contractors who confirm to us they pay the living wage, and this is confirmed through the tender/bidding process.

Our HR and our Training and Development team provide mandatory e-learning for all employees to complete on Modern Slavery and the 2015 act every 12 months. Finally, we have a whistleblowing procedure in place to ensure if there are any concerns, these are raised and handled confidentially, anonymously and are fully investigated.

Plan for next year


Our commitment to Modern Slavery will continue to progress over the years and our plan for next year is as follows:


1.Develop means, deliver measurements, and report performance to our SMT regularly on the effectiveness and impact of our activities in this area;
2.Roll out access to the Enerveo MSA 2015 e-learning tool kit to our supplier base;
3.Increase MSA 2015 awareness training for all members of the Enerveo Procurement team, creating a team of informed professionals equipped to identify and flag areas of concern
