This guidance documents sets out how UK Government departments must take action to ensure modern slavery risk are identified and managed in government supply chain. This document accompanies the modern slavery procurement policy note 05/19.
Modern Slavery Assessment Tool (MSAT) from the Home Office can assist with this exercise. This quick reference guide is aimed at commercial and procurement professionals involved in any stage of the commercial lifecycle. It summarises the key actions to be taken to ensure modern slavery risks are identified and managed, both on existing contracts and in new procurement activity. The approach needs to be proportionate to ensure that the burdens in public procurement remain as low as possible? both for contracting bodies and for suppliers, especially small businesses and VCSE organisations.
