Introduction

Modern slavery is a grave violation of human rights, encompassing slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour, debt bondage, deceptive recruiting, and human trafficking. It deprives individuals of their freedom and dignity and is a crime under both UK and Australian law.

​

At MyKnowledgeMap Limited, we are committed to a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery in all its forms. We believe that every person deserves the right to live and work freely and safely. This policy outlines our stance and the steps we take to ensure modern slavery does not occur in our operations or supply chains.

​

Purpose

This policy provides our commitment and obligations under:

• The UK Modern Slavery Act 2015, and

• The Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth)

 

It supports our ongoing compliance with Section 54 of the UK Act and Sections 13–16 of the Australian Act, including the preparation and annual publication of a formal Modern Slavery Statement where required.

 

Scope

This policy applies to:

• All employees, contractors, officers, and directors of MyKnowledgeMap Limited

• All suppliers, subcontractors, and business partners providing goods or services
