Position

IoT Technologies Ltd has no tolerance for modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, child labour, bonded labour, exploitative labour practices or abusive working conditions in our business or supply chain.

We expect suppliers, contractors, subcontractors, manufacturers, logistics providers, service providers and professional partners to operate lawfully and to respect the rights, safety and dignity of workers.

This page is maintained as a governance statement. If IoT Technologies Ltd is legally required to publish a formal annual statement under section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 in a relevant reporting year, this page should be reviewed and approved for that purpose.

Business and supply chain

Our business designs, builds and supports IoT systems involving hardware, firmware, radio networks, gateways, cloud services, dashboards, data workflows and operational support.

Relevant supply-chain areas may include electronic components, PCB fabrication, device assembly, enclosures, batteries, packaging, logistics, hosting, software services, security services, professional advisers and specialist technical contractors.

Supply-chain risk is not uniform. Risk can be higher where there are complex subcontracting chains, overseas manufacturing, labour-intensive processes, weak labour enforcement, informal recruitment channels or opaque sourcing arrangements.

Supplier expectations

We expect suppliers to comply with applicable employment, health and safety, anti-slavery, anti-bribery and human-rights laws. We expect workers to be employed freely, paid lawfully, treated with dignity and able to raise concerns without retaliation.

We do not support recruitment fees charged to workers, retention of identity documents, coercion, forced overtime, unsafe working conditions, hidden subcontracting or any practice that restricts a worker’s freedom through threat, debt, deception or abuse of power.

Where appropriate, supplier expectations may be reflected in contracts, onboarding checks, purchase controls, technical qualification or ongoing review.

Due diligence and risk controls

Our due diligence is risk-based. We focus attention where the category, geography, supplier structure, labour model or procurement route indicates increased risk.

Controls may include supplier screening, direct questions, contractual commitments, review of manufacturing routes, preference for reputable suppliers, documentation of sourcing decisions and escalation where concerns arise.

If credible concerns are identified, we will assess the facts, seek remediation where appropriate, avoid sudden actions that worsen harm to affected workers, and disengage where a supplier will not address unacceptable risk.

Training, reporting and accountability

People involved in procurement, delivery and supplier management should understand modern slavery red flags and know how to escalate concerns.

Red flags may include unusually low pricing, evasive supplier answers, unexplained subcontracting, poor site transparency, excessive working hours, unsafe conditions, worker intimidation or evidence that workers are controlled through debt or documentation.

Concerns can be raised through normal management channels or via the Contact page. We will review concerns proportionately and treat credible issues seriously.

Improvement

As the business scales, we expect to strengthen supplier governance, documentation, approval routes and reporting. Modern slavery risk management should develop with the maturity of the company and the complexity of its supply chain.

This statement should be reviewed periodically and whenever there is a material change in supply-chain structure, manufacturing route or operational footprint.
