Slavery and human trafficking statement

The Modern Slavery Act 2015 (the Act) requires large employers to be transparent about their efforts to eradicate Slavery and Human Trafficking in their Supply Chain

The Act makes provisions about slavery, servitude and forced or compulsory labour and about human trafficking, including provision for the protection of victims. In accordance with the Act, this statement articulates our policies and practices around recognising and preventing human trafficking and slavery in the global supply chain.

General Dynamics UK is committed to maintaining and improving systems and processes to avoid complicity in human rights violations related to our operations, supply chain, and products and services. General Dynamics UK recognises that slavery and human trafficking can occur in many forms, such as forced labour, child labour, domestic servitude, sex trafficking, and workplace abuse. Therefore, throughout this Statement we use the terms “slavery and human trafficking” to encompass these various forms of coerced labour.

Our commitment to compliance with the Act is further outlined in the General Dynamics Standards of Business Ethics and Conduct (the “Blue Book”) and various General Dynamics UK policies.
