We are committed to preventing modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation in all aspects of our business and supply chains. We take a zero-tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery.

  1. Our Organisation

Custom Links Care operates as a care provider and recruitment agency within the United Kingdom.

We provide care services to individuals and recruit staff to support care delivery and other services. We recognise that both the care and recruitment sectors present increased risks of modern slavery and exploitation, particularly involving vulnerable individuals and workers.

  • Ensuring all workers are employed freely and voluntarily
  • Providing safe working conditions and fair pay
  • Preventing exploitation of vulnerable individuals in care settings

  1. Risk Assessment

We recognise higher risks of modern slavery in:

  • Recruitment of temporary and agency staff
  • Engagement of overseas workers
  • Low-paid or flexible labour markets
  • Care environments involving vulnerable individuals

We actively assess and monitor these risks within our operations.
