This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and sets out the steps Inclusive Transport Options has taken and is continuing to take to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking are not taking place within our business or supply chains.

Our Business

Inclusive Transport Options is a specialist transport provider, supporting individuals with disabilities and complex health needs. We provide accessible, safe, and dignified transport for NHS-funded clients who are unable to use public transport. Our services are designed to promote independence, wellbeing, and inclusion.

Our Commitment

Inclusive Transport Options is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all its forms. We have a zero-tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery and are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships.

Our Supply Chains

Our supply chains include vehicle suppliers, maintenance and service providers, equipment manufacturers, and staffing agencies. We aim to work only with suppliers who share our values and operate in compliance with UK employment laws and ethical labour standards.

Due Diligence and Risk Management

We undertake due diligence to identify and mitigate the risk of modern slavery, including:

Conducting checks on recruitment and staffing providers to ensure fair working conditions.

Ensuring all employees have the right to work in the UK and are employed voluntarily.

Reviewing supplier relationships and, where appropriate, requesting evidence of their own modern slavery policies.

Training and Awareness

We raise awareness among our staff on the signs of modern slavery and how to report concerns. Our safeguarding policies also reflect our commitment to protecting vulnerable individuals from exploitation and abuse.

Reporting Concerns

Inclusive Transport Options encourages a culture of openness. Any employee, supplier, or customer with concerns about suspected modern slavery is encouraged to report them confidentially. We investigate all reports and take appropriate action.

Review and Approval

This statement will be reviewed annually and updated as necessary. It has been approved by the senior leadership team of Inclusive Transport Options.
