Responsible business, clearly.

1. Our commitment

Artemis Solutions Limited is committed to respecting human rights and treating people fairly and with dignity. We do not tolerate modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour or child labour in our business or supplier relationships.

This statement covers our UK business and supply chain for the financial year ended 30 June 2026. It describes our existing controls and reporting routes, and separately identifies the Supplier Code introduced after year-end. It is issued on the approval date shown below.

2. Business and supply chain

We are a UK software development and technology services company, led by our CEO. Our CISO / Compliance Team oversees our policies and supplier controls. We buy cloud hosting, software, IT equipment, courier services, professional advice and serviced-office facilities.

Our main labour risks arise in IT equipment manufacture and distribution, including overseas suppliers and multiple supply-chain tiers, and in subcontracted facilities services such as cleaning and security. Within Artemis, recruitment or employment could also involve coercion. Screening, conduct standards and confidential reporting routes address workforce risks; supplier assessment and corrective-action controls address supply-chain risks.

3. Policies and reporting routes

Our Code of Conduct / Ethics sets the standards expected of everyone acting for Artemis, including employees, directors, contractors, consultants and agency staff. It requires lawful, ethical and respectful conduct, acting with integrity and respect for the rights and dignity of others, and prohibits harassment, bullying, intimidation and discrimination. We circulated the Code and our Whistleblowing Policy to staff during the year.

Employees, contractors and suppliers can raise concerns with an Artemis manager, HR or Compliance at compliance@artemis.solutions. Our Whistleblowing Policy provides an anonymous reporting route, confidential handling and protection against retaliation for reports made in good faith.

Our Personnel Security Policy requires identity, qualification and reference checks appropriate to each role. Contractors in sensitive roles are subject to equivalent checks. Relevant policy acknowledgements and confidentiality agreements are required before access is granted.

4. Supplier due diligence and risk management

We maintain a supplier register with an owner, risk rating, approval status and review dates for each relationship.

Our Vendor Management and Approval Policy requires suppliers to be assessed before approval. We consider the service, our dependence on it, available assurance, relevant subcontractors and any concerns. High-risk suppliers need management or CISO approval. We keep unresolved risks and gaps on record until they are addressed or formally accepted.

The policy requires annual reviews of relevant active suppliers, quarterly monitoring of high-risk suppliers and further reviews when circumstances change or concerns arise. We use public information and independent assurance, and request clarification where a significant risk needs assessment. For equipment and facilities suppliers, concerns about working conditions or subcontractors are handled through these review and escalation routes. Supplier concerns and corrective actions are recorded and followed through under the process in section 7.

5. Effectiveness, training and awareness

We assess the effectiveness of our controls using four indicators:

• Supplier reviews due and completed against the annual review requirement, with quarterly monitoring for high-risk suppliers.
• Outstanding supplier findings and corrective actions, including their progress towards resolution.
• Staff policy acknowledgements and Code of Conduct / whistleblowing awareness training records against induction and annual requirements.
• Concerns raised, acknowledgement within two business days, investigation outcomes and completion of agreed actions.

Our existing staff training covers the Code of Conduct, whistleblowing and related HR and governance policies. Awareness training is required at induction and annually, with policy acknowledgement and Code training records retained. Staff also have access to our reporting policies and Supplier Code for guidance on conduct, labour standards and suspected exploitation.

This statement provides additional modern-slavery awareness guidance: warning signs include someone being unable to leave work freely, having identity documents withheld, or facing withheld wages, threats or coercion. Staff should report concerns to HR or Compliance, or use the anonymous whistleblowing route, and seek advice rather than investigate themselves. GOV.UK’s guidance on identifying and reporting modern slavery is also available to staff.

HR reviews the Code annually and Compliance coordinates supplier reviews. Review findings, training gaps and reporting outcomes are recorded in our risk and compliance records and used to decide corrective action, management escalation and changes to policies or training.

6. Supplier standards

After this statement’s approval and the reporting year-end, our Supplier Code of Conduct took effect on 7 August 2026. It requires respect for human rights and employment law and sets out our expectations against modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, child labour and unsafe or abusive working practices.

The Code also covers subcontractors, reporting concerns and responding to breaches. Contractual obligations apply where they have been agreed or included in supplier terms. Suppliers can raise concerns with their Artemis contact or Compliance.

7. Investigation and corrective action

Our Whistleblowing Policy requires reports to be acknowledged within two business days and investigated independently, with evidence handled confidentially. CISO and HR approve the findings and actions. Serious findings are escalated to the CEO, and reporters whose identity is known receive feedback when the case closes. Reports made in good faith are protected even where a concern is not substantiated.

We record the evidence, findings and action taken. Retaliation is a disciplinary offence. Proven breaches can lead to disciplinary action, dismissal or contract termination. Supplier issues are recorded and followed through to resolution, with corrective action, additional controls or replacement considered according to the risk and our contractual rights.

8. Governance and annual review

This statement was approved by the CISO and CEO on 30 June 2026 and takes effect from that date. The CISO / Compliance Team is responsible for its annual review. The Supplier Code described in section 6 is a subsequent policy update.

Signed for Artemis Solutions Limited: Jason Clarke, Chief Executive Officer and Director. Approval and sign-off confirmed on 30 June 2026.
