MODERN SLAVERY & ETHICAL SOURCING STATEMENT.

1) INTRODUCTION.

This statement sets out the steps taken by 6 Communications Ltd. (“the Company”) to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in our business operations and supply chains.

Although 6 Communications Ltd. is not required to publish a statement under Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 due to our turnover being below the statutory threshold, we recognise our responsibility to act ethically and transparently and are committed to preventing modern slavery in any form.

This statement applies to all areas of our business and supply chain and reflects our values and approach to responsible sourcing.

2) OUR ORGANISATION, BUSINESS AND SUPPLY CHAINS.

6 Communications Ltd. is a UK‑based provider of telecommunications and technology solutions, serving public and private sector customers across the United Kingdom.

Our activities include:
  • provision and management of mobile and connectivity services;
  • advisory, support and managed services; and
  • associated technology and customer support services.
Our supply chain primarily comprises:
  • UK and international telecommunications providers;
  • technology and software suppliers;
  • device and equipment manufacturers;
  • professional services and support partners.
Given the nature of our services, our supply chain is largely focused on regulated, established organisations operating in the UK and EU.

3) POLICIES IN RELATION TO MODERN SLAVERY & HUMAN TRAFFICKING.

We are committed to ensuring that modern slavery and human trafficking do not occur within our business or supply chains.
Our commitment is supported by:
  • a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking;
  • adherence to UK employment law and relevant international standards;
  • ethical business practices embedded within our internal policies and supplier relationships.
We expect our employees, partners and suppliers to conduct business lawfully, ethically and with respect for fundamental human rights.

4) DUE DILLIGENCE PROCESSES.

We expect our employees, partners and suppliers to conduct business lawfully, ethically and with respect for fundamental human rights.
  • carrying out supplier selection processes that consider reputation, scale and regulatory compliance;
  • prioritising the use of established, reputable suppliers, particularly for critical services;
  • reviewing supplier commitments to ethical conduct and responsible employment practices where appropriate;
  • reserving the right to investigate or disengage from suppliers where concerns arise.
For public sector and regulated contracts, we also align our practices with applicable government guidance and procurement requirements.

5) RISK ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT.

We recognise that modern slavery risks can vary by industry, geography and supply chain tier.
Based on our current operations:
  • the overall risk of modern slavery within our direct business activities is assessed as low;
  • higher-risk areas may arise further upstream in complex global supply chains (such as device manufacturing).
Where relevant, we mitigate these risks by:
  • relying on major, regulated suppliers with established compliance frameworks;
  • maintaining transparency and oversight with supplier relationships;
  • escalating concerns promptly if identified.

6) MEASURING EFFECTIVENESS.

We recognise that modern slavery risks can vary by industry, geography and supply chain tier.
  • monitor supplier relationships and performance;
  • reviewing any reported concerns or incidents;
  • evaluating our policies and processes periodically to ensure they remain appropriate and effective.
To date, we are not aware of any confirmed incidents of modern slavery within our business or supply chain.

7) TRAINING AND AWARENESS.

We ensure that relevant employees are aware of:
  • what slavery and human trafficking are;
  • how to identify potential warning signs; and
  • the importance of raising concerns.
Awareness is supported through internal communications and management oversight, particularly for staff involved in procurement, partner management and customer delivery.

8) COMMITMENT AND REVIEW.

6 Communications Ltd. is ommitted to continuous improvement in managing ethical risks within our business and supply chain.
 
This statement will be reviewed periodically and updated as our business, supply chain or regulatory expectations evolve.
