1. Statement Overview
Delight Security Ltd is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking across all aspects of our business operations and supply chains. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery, forced labor, servitude, child labor, or human trafficking, both within our workforce and among our contractors, vendors, and partners.
This statement sets out the actions taken by Delight Security Ltd to identify, assess, and mitigate modern slavery risks in accordance with the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015.
2. Our Business & Supply Chains
Delight Security Ltd provides professional security services, including manned guarding, mobile security patrols, keyholding and alarm response, CCTV monitoring, and vacant property protection to client sites across Birmingham, the West Midlands, and surrounding regions.
Our operations and supply chain encompass:

3. Our Policies on Modern Slavery
We operate under strict policies to ensure ethical recruitment, fair treatment, and legal compliance across all operations:
-
Anti-Slavery & Human Trafficking Policy: Explicitly prohibits forced labor, illegal deductions, and mandatory retention of personal identification documents.
-
Vetting & Recruitment Policy: Ensures all personnel undergo rigorous Right to Work in the UK checks, background verification (BS7858 standard), and SIA license validation prior to deployment.
-
Whistleblowing Policy: Provides a confidential, secure channel for employees, contractors, and site visitors to report suspected unethical behavior, illegal practices, or human rights abuses without fear of retaliation.
-
Supplier Code of Conduct: Mandates that suppliers adhere to UK employment laws, pay legal minimum wage rates, and maintain safe working conditions.
4. Due Diligence & Risk Assessment
Given the nature of the security sector—which relies heavily on manpower—we proactively manage modern slavery risks through the following due diligence procedures:
-
Pre-Employment Screening: We strictly verify identity documents, right-to-work status, and bank details to ensure wages are paid directly to workers and not coerced third parties.
-
Fair Compensation & Working Hours: We ensure all staff are compensated in compliance with UK National Minimum Wage and Living Wage legislation and monitor shift patterns to enforce mandatory rest breaks and working time regulations.
-
Supplier Vetting: We conduct risk-based assessments of new vendors, prioritizing high-risk supply categories (such as garment manufacturing for uniforms).
5. Training & Awareness
To ensure high awareness across our organization:
-
Our operational managers and recruitment team receive guidance on recognizing signs of modern slavery, forced labor, and worker exploitation.
-
Security officers deployed to client sites (such as construction, warehousing, retail, and corporate facilities) are encouraged to remain vigilant and report any unusual worker conditions or suspicious activity observed during patrols.
6. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
We monitor the effectiveness of our anti-slavery measures through:
-
100% Compliance on Right to Work and BS7858 background screening for all deployed security personnel.
-
Zero Reported Incidents or grievances related to modern slavery or human trafficking across our direct workforce and immediate supply chain.
