Recruitment / Agency workers'

AGA Rangemaster uses only specified, reputable employment agencies to source labour and always verifies the practices of any new agency it is using before accepting workers from that agency.

When signing up to a new employment agency we undertake an Ethical trading questionnaire to understand their employment policies and procedures. Additionally we undertake a desk audit of at least one supplier per year.

Going forward over the course of the next 12 months AGA Rangemaster will continue to monitor the relationship with all agencies in accordance with the provisions of the Modern Slavery Act.

Due diligence

AGA Rangemaster undertakes due diligence when considering taking on new indirect suppliers, and reviews its existing indirect suppliers.

This process includes;

Mapping the indirect supply chain broadly to assess particular product or geographical risks of modern slavery and human trafficking.
Evaluating the modern slavery and human trafficking risks of each new indirect supplier by requesting they complete a Modern Slavery Act due diligence questionnaire via AGA Rangemaster supply chain procurement platform.
Create a risk profile for each indirect supplier, where appropriate, based on the response within the Modern Slavery Act due diligence questionnaire;
Invoking sanctions against suppliers that fail to improve their performance in line with an action plan, including the termination of the business relationship;
Insertion of a Modern Slavery Act clause in our supplier contracts. Contracts with suppliers will include clauses on the Act and risk factors. Zero tolerance for modern slavery and respect for human rights will be built into supplier contracts and also represented in dialogue with sub-contractors, customers and other business partners.

Training

AGA Rangemaster commits to ensuring that individuals employed in the Supply Chain team will undergo training on Modern Slavery. 17 people involved with Supply Chain and Human Resources have undertaken training in this area. Anyone new coming into the business in Supply Chain or Human Resources roles will undergo this training.

Steps Taken

Prior to 2025

AGA Rangemaster has developed a system for supply chain verification, whereby the company evaluates potential suppliers before they enter into our supply chain via a supplier assessment form. All suppliers signed up to our SLA including our Ethical Trading and Anti-Slavery Policies.

A register of approved people suppliers has been generated and a questionnaire issued to all. From this a risk assessment was undertaken for each supplier of people and categorized as low, medium or high risk.

Detailed Audits of 3 main employment agencies were undertaken.
