Linesight is committed to respecting human rights and preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in its business and supply chains. We do not tolerate forced or compulsory labour, debt bondage, child exploitation or trafficking, and we expect those working with us to uphold lawful and fair employment practices. This statement sets out our approach to managing these risks, with reference to section 54 of the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015. We recognise that preventing exploitation requires attention to employment practices, supplier relationships and the wider construction environment in which we operate.
Headquartered in Dublin, Linesight is a global construction consultancy delivering cost management, project management, programme management, project controls, procurement and advisory services. We work with clients in sectors including data centres, life sciences, advanced technology, industrial and commercial development. Our direct supply chain includes specialist professional services, recruitment providers, technology suppliers, travel services, facilities management and other suppliers supporting our people and operations. Our teams also support procurement and supply chain activity on client projects. Construction contractors and their subcontractors are frequently appointed by clients rather than directly by Linesight. We distinguish between our direct suppliers and third parties engaged by clients, while recognising our responsibility to raise relevant concerns and use our influence where appropriate.
Linesight maintains a Modern Day Slavery Policy addressing areas of potential risk, supplier expectations, supporting company policies, training and performance measures. It forms part of our wider commitment to responsible business conduct and respect for people. Our approach is supported by internal governance and documented management processes, with responsibilities relevant to human resources, procurement, legal compliance, operational management and project delivery. We seek to apply standards proportionate to the nature of our activities and the degree of control we have over each supplier relationship.
We recognise that modern slavery risks are not limited to the direct employment of construction labour. Potential exposure can arise through recruitment and employment agencies, outsourced workplace services, complex subcontracting arrangements and activities connected with international project delivery. Our approach considers the location and nature of a supplier’s operations, the type of labour involved, recruitment arrangements and the visibility of working practices. Particular attention is warranted where vulnerable workers, labour intermediaries or multiple tiers of subcontracting are involved.
Depending on the nature of the relationship and the risks identified, appropriate measures can include supplier assessments, review of relevant employment and ethical policies, suitable contractual standards and escalation of concerns for further examination. Where suppliers are engaged directly by clients, our actions reflect the responsibilities and influence available to us under the relevant appointment.
Our expectations include voluntary recruitment, lawful wages and working conditions, respect for workers and freedom from coercion. Practices such as charging exploitative recruitment fees or retaining identity documents to restrict a worker’s freedom are inconsistent with these expectations.
We encourage employees and others working with Linesight to raise concerns about suspected exploitation through appropriate internal reporting and management channels. Concerns should be treated seriously, handled sensitively and escalated to the relevant responsible people. Our approach is to protect affected individuals, avoid retaliation and consider suitable corrective action.
Awareness is particularly relevant for those involved in recruitment, procurement, supplier management and project delivery. We recognise the value of practical guidance that helps employees identify warning signs, understand responsibilities and know how to respond.
We recognise that having a policy is only one part of effective risk management. Relevant measures include the review of suppliers presenting greater exposure, the use of appropriate contractual safeguards, participation in relevant training, concerns raised and the outcomes of investigations and corrective actions.
As reported in our July 2026 Corporate Responsibility Report, Linesight has been strengthening supplier engagement, including greater structure and controls in supplier onboarding and management. We will continue to assess how our governance arrangements can provide better visibility of modern slavery risks and the effectiveness of measures taken to address them.
Our focus is on continuing to strengthen responsible business practices as Linesight grows. Priorities include reviewing risks across our direct supplier categories, improving consistency in supplier due diligence, supporting awareness in roles with greater exposure to labour risks and developing clearer ways to monitor and report our response to any concerns.
We will continue to review our approach in line with legal requirements, changing risks, industry practice and our standards. Where issues are identified, our response will take account of the safety and wellbeing of affected workers and the need for appropriate remedy.
