Policies

We operate a number of internal policies to ensure that we are conducting business in an ethical and transparent manner.

These include the following:

Recruitment and selection policy - Amelie Distribution prides itself on being an equal opportunities employer. To

comply with employment legislation and the Equality Act 2010, it is important that all staff involved in recruitment,

selection and redundancy situations apply consistent and impartial criteria which are free from discrimination at all

stages.

We are currently a small family company but when we grow we will operate a robust recruitment policy, including

conducting UK eligibility to work checks for all employees, to safeguard against human trafficking or individuals

being forced to work against their will.

We make sure our suppliers are aware of our policies and adhere to the same standards.

Due Diligence

As part of our efforts to monitor and reduce the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our supply chains, we

have adopted the following due diligence procedures:

Internal supplier audits.

Our due diligence procedures aim to:

Identify and action potential risks in our business and supply chains.

Risk and compliance

Risk and compliance

The Company has evaluated the nature and extent of its exposure to the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in its

UK supply chain through:

Reviewing on a regular basis all aspects of the supply chain based on supply chain mapping.

We do not consider that we operate in a high-risk environment because the food products are wheat based and have a long

shelf life..

We do not tolerate slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains. Where there is evidence of failure to comply with our

policies and procedures by any of our suppliers, we will require that supplier to remedy the non-compliance.

Effectiveness

The Company uses Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to measure its effectiveness and ensure that slavery and human

trafficking is not taking place in its business and supply chains. These KPIs are as follows:

We will contact suppliers to enquire about their modern slavery practices every 12 months.
