Compliance

Because we provide executive recruitment and leadership advisory services at the highest level of all types of organisations, we have a limited supply chain. We believe our risk for violations of the Modern Slavery Act is low although we keep this under review and particularly in our limited supply chain.

We do not believe that further compliance actions are necessary currently to combat slavery and human trafficking. As compliance laws and regulations continuously evolve, thoughtful assessments of our compliance effectiveness is periodically undertaken.
