Human Rights Policy

Policy statement

emu24 Limited is committed to respecting and upholding internationally recognised human rights across all our business activities and relationships. We recognise that business enterprises have a responsibility to respect human rights as set out in the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), and the International Labour Organization (ILO) Core Conventions.

We believe that doing business ethically and respecting human rights are inseparable. This policy sets out our commitment to ensuring that our operations, our supply chain, and our relationships with stakeholders do not contribute to human rights abuses.

Scope

This policy applies to all emu24 employees, directors, officers, contractors, agency workers, suppliers and any third parties acting on our behalf, wherever they are located. It covers all aspects of our operations including employment practices, procurement and supply chain management, and our relationships with customers and communities.

Our commitments

Employment & labour rights

• We will pay at least the National Living Wage to all workers
• We will uphold the right of employees to freely chosen employment and will not use forced, compulsory or trafficked labour
• We will not employ anyone under the age of 16 in any role
• We will respect employees' right to freedom of association and collective bargaining
• We will ensure safe and healthy working conditions in line with our Health & Safety Policy
• We will not discriminate on any grounds, in line with our Equal Opportunities & Diversity Policy

Supply chain & procurement

• We expect our suppliers and business partners to share our commitment to human rights
• We will undertake appropriate due diligence on key suppliers to identify and address potential human rights risks
• We will not knowingly procure goods or services produced through forced labour, child labour, or under conditions that violate fundamental human rights

Community & customers

• We will engage with the communities in which we operate in a manner that respects their rights and dignity
• We will not use our market position in a way that is exploitative or harmful to our customers or the wider community

Due diligence

emu24 is committed to identifying, preventing, mitigating and accounting for human rights risks in our operations and supply chain. Our due diligence process includes assessing actual and potential impacts, integrating findings into relevant policies, tracking the effectiveness of our response, and communicating how we address human rights impacts.

Grievances & reporting

Employees who have concerns about potential human rights breaches — whether in our own operations or in our supply chain — should report them to a Director or use the Company's whistleblowing procedure. All reports will be taken seriously, investigated confidentially and acted upon. No individual will be penalised for raising a genuine concern in good faith.

Governance & review

The Managing Director has overall responsibility for this policy. This policy will be reviewed annually and updated to reflect changes in legislation, best practice and our own business activities.
