Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement August 2026 (Financial year 2025-26)


This statement applies to AR Urbanism. The information included in the statement refers to the financial year 2025 to 2026 (ending 31/11/26).

1. Policy Statement


AR Urbanism is committed to acting ethically and with integrity across all our business operations and supply chains. We maintain a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labor, and unlawful child labor.

2. Scope & Risk Profile


This policy applies to all persons working for AR Urbanism or on our behalf, including employees, directors, sub-consultants, freelancers, agency workers, and third-party suppliers.

As a specialist urban design and planning consultancy, our primary business operations are office- and desk-based knowledge services. Consequently, our direct risk of exposure to modern slavery is low. However, we remain proactive in assessing risks within our broader supply chain, such as IT procurement, facilities management (e.g., cleaning services), office supplies, and specialist sub-contracted expertise.

3. Our Commitments


To ensure modern slavery has no place in or around our business, AR Urbanism commits to:
  • Fair Employment Practices: Ensuring all direct staff and long-term contractors are legally entitled to work in the UK and are paid at or above the Real Living Wage.
  • Proportionate Supplier Due Diligence: Setting clear expectations for our sub-consultants and key suppliers regarding fair treatment and human rights compliance.
  • Risk Mitigation: Choosing reputable vendors for facilities management, office services, and technology hardware.
  • Open Culture: Fostering a supportive working environment where staff and partners can raise concerns about unethical practices without fear of retaliation.

4. Responsibilities & Reporting

  • Leadership: The Directors of AR Urbanism hold overall responsibility for enforcing this policy and reviewing it regularly.
  • Raising Concerns: Employees or external partners who suspect modern slavery or human rights abuses within our business or supply chain should report their concerns directly to a Director.
  • External Support: Guidance or anonymous reports can also be made via the UK Modern Slavery Helpline on 08000 121 700.

Policy Review: This policy is reviewed annually to ensure ongoing relevance and effectiveness.

Signed: Riccardo Bobisse, Director
