We are committed to stamping out modern slavery in all its forms including labour exploitation involving agency workers. Law enforcement agencies
including the Gangmasters Licensing Authority, the police and the National Crime Agency have made commitments as part of the Modern Slavery Strategy to ensure that they will work with the private sector and upstream to prevent workers being exploited and trafficked. The Strategy is expected to be published shortly.
