MODERN SLAVERY ACT 2015 SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING STATEMENT-1

MODERN SLAVERY ACT 2015 SLAVERY AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING STATEMENT INTRODUCTION We are committed to doing our part in eliminating acts of modern-day slavery and human trafficking by carrying out our due diligence to ensure that to the best of our knowledge our customers, suppliers and service providers are in compliance with this law and have in place their own policies for ensuring that acts of modern-day slavery do not exist within their business and respective supply chains. With an annual turnover of less than £36 million Medasil Surgical Limited is not legally required to comply with the ‘investigative and reporting requirements’ of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 however, we take great pride in having a high standard of moral and ethical trading practices within the company internally and within our supply chains. OUR BUSINESS: We are a manufacturer, importer, and distributor of single-use medical devices for the healthcare sector. We are an independent family-owned company, our manufacturing facility and associated head office is based in Leeds, West Yorkshire. OUR SUPPLY CHAIN: Our supply chains consist mostly of UK based distributors, manufacturers and service providers. We also purchase some finished products for re-sale from a few select overseas suppliers. This makes up a small percentage of our business, and we consider this to be our highest risk area. We are doing our due diligence, in the form of supplier questionnaires and signed supplier technical and quality agreements, to ensure that acts of modern slavery do not exist within these organisations. OUR CUSTOMERS: Our customers are public and private sector healthcare facilities, they have a zero tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery and they expect the same approach from their suppliers. +44(0)113 243 3491 Medasil Surgical Ltd, Medasil House, Hunslet Road, Leeds, LS10 1
