At Zenith Orion, we are committed to ensuring that our business operations and supply chains are free from slavery, human trafficking, and exploitation. We uphold the highest ethical standards and expect our partners, suppliers, and contractors to do the same.

• We conduct due diligence checks on our suppliers to ensure they meet our standards for ethical business practices.

3. Risk Assessment

We assess the risk of modern slavery occurring in our operations and supply chains. We aim to identify any areas where the risk may be higher, such as in industries with low wages, seasonal work, or vulnerable populations. We regularly review our supply chain to ensure compliance with our policy.
