Modern slavery statements
Ask every provider for a short modern slavery questionnaire each financial year, with their own statement if they have one, and accept it or follow up.

Applies to: Provider Vetting · School admin, Providers
Once an school admin switches it on in Vetting settings, each provider who has accepted your invitation answers six yes or no questions each financial year (a policy, risks assessed, supplier contracts, training, a grievance process, any instance found in the last 12 months, with details), says whether they're a reporting entity, and can link or attach their own statement. They sign it.
How to review
- Step 1: Open Vetting, then Modern slavery. It shows how many have given a statement for the year; use the previous year's button to look back.
- Step 2: Read each answer and open their statement.
- Step 3: Select Accept, or enter a Question to follow up and select Follow up. The provider is sent your question and can update their answers until you accept.
For builders and other businesses, panel coordinators review them too. Download as CSV.
Common questions
- When is the financial year? It ends on 30 June. One statement per provider each year.
- Who must report under the Act? An entity with consolidated revenue of at least $100 million for its reporting period is a reporting entity, and its statement is due within 6 months after the period ends. Confirm your own obligations with your adviser.
