RPC is opposed to all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking. It has a severe impact on the individuals subjected to it and on wider society generally. RPC recognises that this is a global issue and takes steps to ensure its policies and controls are implemented across all its offices worldwide.

RPC is committed to adhering to the strictest ethical behaviour and standards in all our business dealings. We recognise that we have a moral duty to do all we can to act transparently in this area and we work to ensure that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chains or in any part of our business. We strive to raise awareness of modern slavery issues generally through our various workstreams, initiatives and training both internally and externally and aim to conduct all our business dealings in an ethical and transparent manner.

This statement is designed to provide an overview of our business, our supply chains and is intended to detail our policies and procedures used to combat modern slavery and human trafficking.
