We operate a number of internal policies to ensure that we are conducting business in an ethical and transparent manner. These apply to all WDA Design employees (including agency and contract personnel) and directors.

Employees are required to report any concerns regarding modern slavery and / or human trafficking in our business or supply chains. Our policies encourage openness so that employees are able to raise concerns in good faith without fear of reprisals. We address failures by our employees to adhere to our policies, and this may involve disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal for misconduct or gross misconduct. Similarly, if a supplier or other organisation fails to act consistently with our expectations or their contractual obligations this may result in termination of contract.
