Modern Slavery Statement

Product Overview

This professionally drafted Modern Slavery Statement template is designed specifically for Australian organisations that must meet obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth) while maintaining strong work health and safety (WHS) performance. It provides a comprehensive, ready-to-customise framework that integrates modern slavery due diligence with WHS risk management, contractor control and procurement practices.

Built for practical use across retail and wholesale, manufacturing and production, mining and resources, and building and construction, this document helps you clearly demonstrate how you identify, assess and manage modern slavery risks in your operations and supply chains, both in Australia and overseas.

Written in plain, compliant Australian English, it is structured to align with WHS legislation, Fair Work requirements and recognised human rights standards, making it an ideal foundation for your annual modern slavery reporting and broader safety documentation.

Key Features

  • Comprehensive Modern Slavery Statement aligned with the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth).
  • Strong integration with work health and safety systems, procedures and risk registers.
  • Clear governance, roles and responsibilities for boards, executives, managers and workers.
  • Detailed guidance on supply chain mapping, supplier screening and ongoing due diligence.
  • Practical checklists for procurement, site visits and contractor management.
  • Templates for risk registers and supplier questionnaires to streamline WHS compliance.
  • Sector-relevant content for retail, manufacturing, mining and construction environments.

Benefits
