Global Anti Slavery Policy – Jobs OneGlobe

1. Introduction

1.1. Modern Slavery – What is It?
Modern slavery is the practice of trafficking, harboring, and/or recruitment of people through force, coercion, abuse, deception, and other actions for the purpose of exploitation. Modern slavery takes many forms, including slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labor, human trafficking, and other actions intended to deprive a person of their liberty and exploit them for personal or commercial gain.

The Modern Slavery Act 2015 (UK) has made it impossible for businesses in the UK and abroad to engage in such forms of slavery without accountability. Any such abuses and human rights violations in their supply chains will be met with swift action by legal bodies in charge of implementing said legislation.

1.2. The Role of our Global Anti Slavery Policy
The role of this document is to outline the Anti Slavery Policy for Jobs OneGlobe. Jobs OneGlobe is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all its business dealings and relationships. It maintains effective systems and controls to enforce this policy with the goal to ensure that modern slavery does not take place anywhere within Jobs OneGlobe, the services it provides, and in any of its supply chains.
Jobs OneGlobe will not knowingly enter into partnerships or business dealings with any individual or organization that either exposes people to abuse or exploitation or itself tolerates discrimination, harsh, and inhumane treatment of employees and agents.

  • The role and objectives of this policy are:
  • To remain aligned and cooperative with global anti-slavery acts and laws including The Modern Slavery Act 2015 (UK)
  • To maintain risk-assessed and transparent supply chains
  • To not directly support any organization, initiative, or activity that causes, promotes, or contributes to modern slavery or human trafficking
  • To not engage, contract, or work with any entity or organization that causes, promotes, or contributes to modern slavery or human trafficking
  • To ensure that any victims of modern slavery have access to remediation and justice
  • To publish, review, and maintain the Anti Slavery Policy which complies with the requirements of MSA 2015 and its international equivalents

Information on these principles can be found at: https://www.unglobalcompact.org/what-is-gc/mission/principles

6. Reporting and Investigation

Jobs OneGlobe will ensure that reporting and incident management procedures to address modern slavery concerns are in place and effectively used to enable an appropriate and swift investigation of any given case. Concerns to report can include:

  • Suspicion or knowledge that modern slaves are being engaged by local businesses
  • Suspicion that services or products used by Jobs OneGlobe are produced under the conditions of modern slavery

The following channels should be used to report concerns:
1. Staff are advised to report immediately any concerns of suspected or actual slavery or human trafficking.
2. Any Jobs OneGlobe representative who has a concern or suspicion regarding harm, exploitation, or abuse by someone representing another agency must report such concerns.
3. Concerns relating to modern slavery, either within Jobs OneGlobe’s operations or the wider supply chain can be escalated via direct email at: [email protected] or the dedicated Contact Us page at: https://oneglobe.life/contact-us/
Should a suspicion of modern slavery, human trafficking, exploitation, or abuse be reported to Jobs OneGlobe, it will be thoroughly investigated to determine the value and extent of Jobs OneGlobe’s exposure.
Jobs OneGlobe will act as a result of reports and investigations which may include but not be limited to: informing local and national law enforcement, regulators, donors, and external auditors, the termination of partnership/supplier contracts, and the termination of the contract of employment in question. In taking these actions, Jobs OneGlobe will comply with local legislation and conduct an audit where appropriate.

Jobs OneGlobe will periodically review this policy and thoroughly assess trends with guidance on the indicators, updated legislations on modern slavery, implement mechanisms, and put controls in place to mitigate risk within our operations both nationally and internationally. The policy will be reviewed at least every two years to ensure it remains up-to-date and compliant with all relevant legislation.

8.1. Background and Scope
Jobs OneGlobe’s Code of Conduct outlines the principles and approaches that the organization has agreed are fundamental to its work. This document, as an expression of our values as an organization, outlines the key principles and requirements to which we expect anyone we work with to adhere. Jobs OneGlobe is therefore committed to ensuring that all suppliers, partners, and anyone working on behalf of Jobs OneGlobe, agree with the framework set out below.

As per the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI), we maintain open and honest processes, both internally and externally. Jobs OneGlobe expects all partners and suppliers, including agencies and delivery companies, and those that provide goods and services (signatories), to protect the rights and safety of their employees and beneficiaries.

8.2. Safeguarding
Safeguarding, social responsibility, and respect for human rights are central to the expectations we have of those with whom we work. Signatories must ensure that they have robust procedures in place to identify harmful practices and mitigate the risks faced by staff, representatives, and beneficiaries (where applicable). These practices include the prevention of sexual exploitation, abuse and harassment, all forms of child abuse, and inequality or discrimination based on race, gender, age, religion, sexuality, culture, or disability.

8.3. Lawful and Ethical Business
Jobs OneGlobe expects signatories to comply with laws and regulations in the countries in which they operate. All other applicable international laws and regulations must also be complied with, including those relating to international trade (such as those concerning sanctions, export controls, and reporting obligations) and privacy and data protection.

8.4. Fraud, Corruption, Tax Avoidance, and Bribery
Signatories must not commit fraud, corruption, tax evasion, bribery, or fraud, and they will notify us immediately if they identify any of these issues related to their work with Jobs OneGlobe. Likewise, Jobs OneGlobe must be notified if any staff, volunteers, or representatives of the signatory organization are subject to government financial sanctions.

We strive to act ethically and with integrity to ensure modern slavery is not taking place in any part of our work. Jobs OneGlobe will not enter into a partnership or conduct business with any individual or organization that exposes people to abuse and exploitation and or tolerates discrimination and harsh or inhumane treatment of staff.

We, therefore, require all signatories to have in place measures that ensure:

8.8. Whistleblowing
Signatories will have whistleblowing policies and procedures in place and promote an environment where people feel able to speak up. This should ensure that everyone that the organization interacts with, including staff and the supply chain, can raise concerns. All disclosures should be treated fairly and consistently, with all reasonable steps being taken to maintain the confidentiality of the whistleblower, where requested and possible under the law. Whistleblowers should not face discrimination or victimization for raising their concerns. Whistleblowers can contact Jobs OneGlobe to disclose by email.

8.9. Environment
Signatories will endeavor to take reasonable steps to safeguard the natural environment within their operations and supply chain. You are encouraged to develop and implement an environmental policy, where one does not already exist.

8.10. Value for Money
Jobs OneGlobe expects all signatories to act per the principles of good value for money. At all stages of the program cycle, economy, efficiency, effectiveness, equity, and cost-effectiveness should be considered. Value for money is integral to Jobs OneGlobe’s operations, ensuring that the impact of funds is maximized.

8.11. Conflict of Interest
Signatories will notify us, as soon as they become aware, of any potential or real conflicts of interest relating to their arrangements with Jobs OneGlobe. All such notices should be sent by email. Jobs OneGlobe may take steps to terminate agreements with any organization found to:

  • Be involved either directly or indirectly in human trafficking, pornography, or prostitution
  • Be involved in the manufacture of arms or the sale of arms to governments, which systematically violate the human rights of their own or others’ citizens
