RW Armstrong & Sons Ltd is committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery within our own business or supply chains. We understand modern slavery to include any acts of slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour, child labour or human trafficking and that it is often well hidden by the perpetrators with victims, if they perceive themselves as such, reluctant to come forward.

Our commitment to preventing modern slavery includes the following control measures and procedures: To identify which parts of our operations and supply chain, if any, are at risk of modern slavery and to undertake appropriate due diligence activities to ensure that we can confirm as far as is possible that modern slavery is not present. To introduce supply chain questionnaires and to audit supplier websites to check what measures they have in place to ensure that all their products are responsibly sourced. We will never knowingly accept products from suppliers who exploit the people or natural resources within their environment.
