This Modern Slavery Statement is made on behalf of 1stProfitness and sets out the steps we take to prevent modern slavery, forced labour, human trafficking, and exploitation within our business operations and supply chains.

This statement is published in accordance with applicable legislation including, where relevant, the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 and similar international regulations.

1. Our Commitment

1stProfitness is committed to conducting business ethically, transparently, and responsibly. We have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, forced labour, human trafficking, and any form of exploitation.

We are committed to ensuring that these practices do not take place within our organisation or supply chain.

2. Our Business

1stProfitness provides professional website design services and integrated business software solutions, including dashboards, scheduling systems, CRM tools, client management systems, and related digital services.

As a technology-based company, our operations are primarily digital, and our supply chain consists mainly of software providers, hosting companies, payment processors, and professional service partners.

3. Our Supply Chain

Our supply chain includes:

• Cloud hosting and infrastructure providers

• Payment processing companies

• Software and technology vendors

• Professional service providers

We assess the nature of our supply chain and consider the risk of modern slavery to be relatively low due to the digital and service-based nature of our business. However, we remain vigilant and committed to responsible sourcing practices.

4. Due Diligence and Risk Assessment

To mitigate risks related to modern slavery, we:

• Work with reputable service providers and partners

• Select suppliers who demonstrate ethical business practices

• Avoid engaging with organisations known to violate labour laws

• Monitor supplier relationships on an ongoing basis

Where appropriate, we may request assurances from suppliers regarding compliance with applicable labour and human rights laws.

5. Internal Policies and Ethical Standards

1stProfitness operates in accordance with ethical business principles, including:

• Compliance with employment laws and fair labour standards

• Non-discrimination and equal opportunity practices

• Transparent contractual relationships

• Respect for human rights

We expect all employees, contractors, and partners to uphold these standards.

6. Reporting Concerns

We encourage employees, contractors, and partners to report any concerns related to unethical practices, including potential instances of modern slavery or exploitation.

Reports will be taken seriously and investigated appropriately.

7. Ongoing Commitment

We recognise that preventing modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility. We are committed to reviewing and improving our practices to ensure compliance with applicable laws and ethical standards.
