Commitments to Address Risks of Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery

1. Introduction

As a responsible manufacturer operating in Kenya, My Plastic Limited is committed to upholding the highest standards of human rights, ethical labor practices, and fair treatment across all aspects of our business and supply chains.

We recognize that modern slavery, forced labor, and human trafficking are serious global issues, and we are dedicated to ensuring that such practices have no place in our operations or partnerships. Through strict policies, supplier engagement, and ongoing monitoring, we work to maintain a supply chain built on transparency, dignity, and respect for all individuals.

2. Our Business

My Plastic Limited specializes in producing premium recycled polypropylene (PP) plastics for consumer goods. As part of the circular economy, we source recycled materials and work closely with suppliers, communities, and stakeholders across Kenya.

Our operations require strict ethical oversight to ensure that no exploitation of vulnerable groups occurs at any point in our supply chain.

3. Our Commitments

We are committed to:

Zero Tolerance – We maintain a strict zero-tolerance approach to all forms of forced labor, child labor, human trafficking, and modern slavery.
Supplier Due Diligence – All suppliers must comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct, which prohibits exploitation and requires fair labor practices.
Worker Protection – We ensure that all employees and contractors work under safe conditions, with proper contracts, fair wages, and access to grievance mechanisms.
Recruitment Practices – We prohibit recruitment fees, deceptive recruitment, and any practices that restrict worker freedom.
Transparency & Accountability – We continuously assess risks in our operations and supply chains and are committed to reporting openly on our progress.
Awareness & Training – We provide training for employees and managers to identify and address risks of exploitation.

4. Supply Chain Responsibility

We recognize that risks of modern slavery can exist in recycling, transport, and raw material supply chains. To address this:

We vet suppliers before engagement and require compliance with labor and ethical standards.
We monitor high-risk areas, such as informal waste collection systems, to ensure fair treatment of workers.
We require suppliers to certify compliance with our anti-slavery commitments.

5. Governance & Monitoring

A designated Compliance Officer oversees the implementation of this policy.
We encourage whistleblowing and confidential reporting of any concerns regarding exploitation.
This statement will be reviewed annually and updated as needed to reflect legal, social, or operational changes.
