Tilbury Douglas Strengthens Modern Slavery Due Diligence Through BS 25700 Framework

Case Study

“The service provided by EJ and Will was exceptional. The face-to-face workshop with our senior leadership team was invaluable. It not only challenged our thinking on all aspects of modern slavery due diligence, but also provided clarity on our progress to date while pinpointing areas for improvement. EJ’s inclusion of case studies and practical examples throughout brough the subject to life, vividly highlighting the risks and inspiring us with best practices in modern slavery due diligence. The comprehensive report detailing key findings, recommendations, corresponding action plan and best practice case studies was exactly what we needed. Their expertise and guidance were instrumental in shaping our approach going forward. We wholeheartedly recommend their services.”
