SCOPE OF THIS CODE

This code applies to all suppliers, subcontractors, consultants and third-party partners who provide goods, services or labour to Zenith Developments Group Ltd.

Suppliers must comply with all relevant labour laws and ensure fair treatment of workers, including the prohibition of forced labour, child labour, human trafficking or any form of exploitation.

 

Suppliers are expected to operate in accordance with the principles outlined in the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and to take appropriate steps to ensure these standards are upheld within their own supply chains.

 

HEALTH AND SAFETY

Suppliers and subcontractors must provide safe and healthy working environments for their employees and any individuals affected by their activities.

 

All suppliers must comply with applicable health and safety legislation and maintain appropriate procedures, training and controls to manage risks effectively.

Concerns raised in good faith will be taken seriously and handled appropriately.

 

BREACHES OF THIS CODE
