Safeguarding and Protection

Our safeguarding approach includes:

• Safeguarding policies and procedures

• Staff training to identify signs of exploitation or abuse

• Clear reporting processes for concerns or safeguarding incidents

Staff are encouraged to raise any concerns about potential exploitation, modern slavery, or unethical practices.

Recruitment Practices

We ensure responsible recruitment practices within our organisation by:

• Conducting fair and lawful recruitment processes

• Ensuring workers are employed voluntarily and free from coercion

• Providing clear employment contracts and fair working conditions

We do not tolerate the use of forced labour or exploitative employment practices.

Supply Chains and Partners

INTU Housing Solutions Ltd works with a number of suppliers and partners including landlords, property maintenance providers, training partners, and service providers.

We expect all suppliers and contractors to:

• Operate in compliance with applicable laws and regulations

• Uphold ethical labour practices

• Ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking are not present within their operations

Where appropriate, we seek to work with suppliers who demonstrate responsible and ethical practices.

​

Staff Awareness and Training

Our team members are encouraged to remain vigilant and understand the signs of potential exploitation. This may include recognising situations where individuals may be subject to:

• Coercion or control

Where concerns arise, staff are expected to follow safeguarding procedures and report issues appropriately.
