Hay-House Financial Services

At Hay-House Financial Services Limited, we are committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all aspects of our business and supply chains. We believe in ethical business practices and maintaining the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and accountability.

Our Commitment

We fully support the objectives of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all business relationships. We aim to ensure there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in our operations or in the services we procure.

Our business

Hay-House Financial Services is a UK-based financial services firm providing independent mortgage and insurance advice. While our business model and size mean we are at low risk of modern slavery within our operations, we remain vigilant and proactive in our approach.

Our supply chains

Our supply chains are limited and primarily consist of professional services, including regulated financial providers, software vendors, and office service providers. We expect all our suppliers and business partners to uphold the same values and standards.

Due Diligence and Risk Management

We aim to:

• Identify and assess potential risk areas in our supply chain

• Monitor suppliers to ensure compliance with our values

• Only work with trusted partners who share our commitment to ethical labour practices

Where appropriate, we may seek written confirmation from suppliers that they comply with the Modern Slavery Act and do not tolerate forced labour, human trafficking, or exploitation of any kind.

Staff Awareness and Training

We ensure all staff are aware of the risks of modern slavery and understand how to report concerns. As part of our company culture, we encourage openness, and any suspicions of unethical practices can be reported in confidence.

Reporting Concerns

Any employee, supplier, or third party with concerns about potential instances of modern slavery within our business or supply chain is encouraged to report these concerns directly to senior management.

Review

This policy is reviewed annually to ensure it remains relevant and effective. We may update it as needed to reflect changes in legislation, business operations, or supply chain activities.
