HireRight’s Commitment
Our position on modern slavery and human trafficking reflects our commitment to act ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and to implement and enforce effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking does not exist in our supply chains. Employees are educated on issues of modern slavery and human trafficking and required to report any known or suspected breach of ethical standards including slavery, human trafficking, forced or child labor, as well as wider human rights-related issues.
Due Diligence and Risk Assessment
HireRight commits to identify and monitor the risk of slavery and human trafficking in its supply chain. In 2017, HireRight established a Third-Party Vendor/Service Provider Risk Management Policy under which we conduct in-depth due diligence of suppliers and sub- contractors to ensure that they are committed to ethical labor practices. Such due diligence is ongoing throughout the lifecycle of the vendor/third party relationship to ensure compliance with HireRight’s zero tolerance position on slavery and human trafficking.

HireRight requires certain members of our leadership team and Team Members responsible for recruiting/sourcing and managing our supply chain to complete annual training on modern slavery as a module within our compliance training program. Our modern slavery training covers the following;
how to assess the risk of slavery and human trafficking in relation to various aspects of the business, including resources and support available;
