Modern Slavery Statement

Introduction

At Fulkrum, we are passionately committed to eradicating modern slavery and human trafficking from our business operations and supply chains. This statement highlights the proactive steps we've taken during the financial year ending 31 March 2025 to ensure these practices have no place in our organization.

Our Business

Fulkrum is a leading inspection, expediting, auditing and technical staffing service provider. As a trusted partner, we enhance the quality and safety of our clients’ projects, safeguarding their operations and budgets whilst improving environmental performance.

Operating in over 66 countries, our dedicated global team consistently exceeds client expectations, delivering solutions that improve safety, reliability, and support the mission to build a sustainable future.

Our Policies

 To combat modern slavery and human trafficking, we have implemented several robust policies:

  • Corporate Social Responsibility: This policy underscores our commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking. It is provided to all new hires and external contractors associated with our business.
  • Fulkrum Code of Conduct: This sets the standards we expect from our employees, contractors, and suppliers, including adherence to labor laws and human rights.
  • Reporting Mechanism: We offer a secure channel for employees, contractors, and suppliers to report any concerns related to modern slavery or human trafficking.

Due Diligence

We provide comprehensive guidance to our employees, contractors, and supply chain partners on modern slavery and human trafficking awareness. Our expectations are clearly communicated through our policies, procedures, and reporting contacts.

Risk Assessment and Management

 Given our extensive global operations, we identify certain territories as higher risk for modern slavery and human trafficking. To manage these risks, we have implemented targeted measures, including:

  • Collaborating with local advisors to ensure fair compensation for all employees in accordance with local labor laws.
  • Providing all external parties with our Code of Conduct and human trafficking policies to clearly outline our expectations.

Effectiveness and Performance Indicators

 We measure the success of our efforts through:

  • Training completion rates among all global employees.
  • Maintaining detailed risk registers for all incidents of modern slavery and human trafficking.

Future Steps

Our commitment to continuous improvement drives us to:

  • Enhance our training programs with more in-depth modules on modern slavery.
  • Strengthen partnerships with industry groups to foster collective action.
