Voluntary Statement

However, as a responsible payroll and employment administration provider, we are committed to operating ethically and transparently. We have chosen to publish this voluntary statement to demonstrate our commitment to preventing modern slavery, forced labour, human trafficking, and labour exploitation within the scope of our business.

Our Supply Chain
Our supply chain primarily includes:
- Recruitment agencies
- End clients
- Professional advisers
- Payroll software providers
As a payroll-only organisation, M&S does not manage site operations or labour practices at client locations.
Risk Awareness
The construction and labour supply sectors can present increased risks of labour exploitation due to:
