Our Business
We are a leading independent planning and buying media agency. We always strive to
work to the highest professional standards and comply with all laws, regulations and rules
relevant to our business.
MNC has a zero- tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. We are
committed to acting ethically in all our business practices, acting with due diligence to
implement and enforce effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery and
human trafficking does not take place anywhere within our business or our supply chains.
We are also committed to ensuring there is transparency in our business and in our
approach to tackling modern slavery, consistent with our disclosure obligations under the
Modern slavery Act, 2015. We expect the same high ethical standards from all our
contractors, suppliers and other business partners and demand that their supply chains
aim to respect the pledge to eradicate modern slavery.
This policy applies to all persons working for us or on our behalf in any capacity, including
employees at all levels, directors, external consultants, media partners and their
suppliers.
This policy does not form part of any employee’s contract of employment and we may
amend it at any time.
Our People
Fair Pay: MNC is committed to ensuring that all directly employed and contracted staff
receive fair renumeration for the job they perform. Rates of pay are based on research and
reflect the levels of income required to meet socially acceptable minimum standards of
living.
Whistleblowing: MNC encourage all its workers to report any concerns relating to its
direct activities. This includes any circumstances relating to risk of slavery or human
trafficking.
Employee Awareness and Compliance: MNC is committed to legal compliance which is
continually monitored and managed through internal and external reviews. We encourage
staff input and operate with an open approachable style of management.
Our Suppliers
Our key supply chains are media suppliers, technology service providers and software
service providers. Modern forms of slavery and human trafficking are not prevalent within
these sectors that our suppliers operate. We believe due to the nature of our work; our
supply chains and their industries are to be low risk, in terms of modern slavery.
We also have supplier relationships with organisations providing office services, such as
cleaning, IT support and products including IT equipment, office fittings and general
supplies. We have reviewed our business and our supply chain. Neither we, nor, to the
best of our knowledge, our supply chain makes use of forced labour.
We expect the same high standards as those to which we hold ourselves from the
businesses with which we work with. We will clearly communicate our expectations to our
suppliers and business partners and continue to update existing websites so that they
contain the latest copy of our Modern Slavery statement.
