Modern Slavery Statement & Policy
1. Purpose
Redei Enterprises Pty Ltd (“Redei”, “we”, “our” or “us”) is committed to conducting business ethically, responsibly and with respect for fundamental human rights.
We recognise that modern slavery remains a significant global issue and that businesses have an important role in identifying, preventing and addressing the risks of exploitation within their operations and supply chains.
Although Redei is not currently required to report under the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth), we voluntarily adopt this Statement as part of our commitment to responsible business practices, ethical procurement and continuous improvement.
2. Our Commitment
Redei has zero tolerance for modern slavery in any form.
We are committed to:
* respecting internationally recognised human rights;
* conducting business ethically and transparently;
* promoting responsible procurement;
* working with suppliers who share our values;
* identifying and reducing modern slavery risks;
* fostering a culture of integrity and accountability.
We expect the same commitment from our employees, contractors, suppliers and business partners.
3. What is Modern Slavery?
Modern slavery refers to serious forms of exploitation where individuals cannot refuse or leave because of threats, coercion, deception or abuse of power.
It may include:
* forced labour;
* bonded labour;
* debt bondage;
* human trafficking;
* servitude;
* deceptive recruitment;
* forced marriage;
* child labour prohibited under applicable laws;
* exploitation of vulnerable workers.
Redei does not tolerate any of these practices.

* engineering design;
* research and development;
* product innovation;
* advanced manufacturing;

Our operations are primarily based in Australia, with products and services supported by a network of suppliers, manufacturers and technology partners.
5. Our Supply Chain

We recognise that supply chains vary in complexity and that risks may differ depending on geography, industry and product type.
6. Assessing Risk
Redei seeks to understand and manage modern slavery risks by considering factors such as:
* the country in which suppliers operate;
* industry-specific risks;
* labour practices;
* use of subcontractors;
* transparency within the supply chain;
* supplier governance;
* publicly available information.
While we currently consider our direct operational risk to be relatively low, we acknowledge that risks may exist within broader international supply chains.
7. Supplier Expectations
We expect suppliers to operate ethically and lawfully.
Suppliers should:
* comply with applicable employment laws;
* prohibit forced labour;
* prohibit child labour contrary to law;
* provide lawful wages and conditions;

Our approach may include:
* assessing supplier capability;

Where concerns are identified, we will seek to work constructively with suppliers to understand and address the issues.

* dignity;
* fairness;
* inclusion;
* equal opportunity;
* respect;
* safe working conditions.
We comply with Australian employment legislation and expect our business partners to uphold similar standards.
10. Reporting Concerns
Employees, contractors, suppliers and business partners are encouraged to report any concerns relating to suspected modern slavery or unethical labour practices.
Reports made in good faith will be treated seriously and investigated appropriately.
Where necessary, Redei will take corrective action consistent with applicable laws and contractual obligations.

As our business grows, we will continue to strengthen our approach by:

This Policy will be reviewed periodically to ensure it remains appropriate for the size, nature and complexity of Redei’s operations.
