Health Carousel's Efforts to Combat Modern Slavery Land It a Prime Spot in Leading Business Ethics Publication
The work of Health Carousel with Slave-Free Alliance was featured in an article appearing in Ethisphere Magazine's Summer 2023 edition. The article details Health Carousel's efforts to eliminate the risks of modern slavery from its business operations.
When Health Carousel wanted to eliminate the risk of human trafficking and modern slavery from its healthcare personnel recruiting practice, it partnered with UK-based Slave-Free Alliance to develop best-in-class policies and procedures. The result is an ethical recruiting program that isn’t just finding talent. It’s protecting it.
Health Carousel is a brilliant example of a company that stepped into that risk space to take control of it so they wouldn’t fall victim to these awful practices of criminal gangs or do something that has unintended consequences in the way that they work, and to constantly improve and ensure that they are acting as a responsible business. We love it when this happens. This is what we need from more companies. You will never be ready and there will never be the right time. But if you start with small and meaningful steps, you quickly end up on a good journey. - Rachel Hartley, Consultancy Director for Slave-Free Alliance
