Suppliers

We expect our suppliers and potential suppliers to aim for high ethical standards and to operate in an ethical, legally-compliant and professional manner by adhering to our Supplier Code of Conduct below. We also expect our suppliers to promote similar standards in their own supply chain.

For more information, read our Supplier Code of Conduct.

Our Supplier Code of Conduct defines our commitment to sustainable development in our procurement activities and to responsible purchasing. Our starting point is compliance with current legal requirements relating to the environment. In addition, Hays will take a number of measures including the following. We will:

  • Consider suppliers' environmental policies and impact on the environment when appraising their overall performance.
  • Ensure that key supply and service contracts are awarded to suppliers on the basis of their environmental policies and performance as well as commercial factors.

How we work with suppliers

Hays takes a risk-based approach to supplier governance, including supplier due diligence, Human Rights and Modern Slavery risk assessments, contractual requirements and ongoing monitoring activities designed to support responsible business practices throughout our supply chain.

Speak Up

Suppliers and other third parties can raise concerns relating to Human Rights, Modern Slavery, unethical conduct or compliance matters through Safecall, our independent reporting provider, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and in more than 100 languages, or by contacting [email protected].
