Modern Slavery Statement

Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It takes various forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking, all of which have in common the deprivation of a person’s liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain. Associated British Ports (ABP) welcomes the opportunity to reinforce its commitment to operating in an ethical manner with integrity and ensuring that no slavery, forced labour or human trafficking takes place in ABP’s business or supply chain.

ABP does not tolerate or condone abuse of human rights within any part of its business or supply chain and takes seriously any allegations that human rights are not being properly respected.
