Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

Our Policy

Modern slavery is a violation of fundamental human rights so serious that it requires vigilance on the part of everyone and every organization to combat it. It takes various forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labor and human trafficking, all of which have in common the deprivation of a person's liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain. This is antithetical to Seagull's values and we are committed to ensuring that we do not engage or benefit from such practices in our supply chains
