Modern Slavery Statement
Last updated: not yet published
This draft sets out Corpshore Solutions Corporation's intended statement on the steps it is taking to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in its own operations and supply chains, in the spirit of frameworks such as the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 and Australia's Modern Slavery Act 2018. It has not yet been reviewed by counsel, has not been approved by Corpshore Work's leadership, and should not be treated as a final or legally sufficient statement until both have happened.
Our organisation and supply chains
Corpshore Work operates a hiring, employer-of-record, and contractor-of-record platform across 170+ countries. By design, that means our operations and the engagements we facilitate touch a wide range of labour markets, including some with weaker statutory labour protections than others. We treat that reach as a responsibility to take modern slavery risk seriously, not a reason to look away from it.
Our "supply chain," for the purposes of this statement, is primarily the network of employer-of-record partner entities we route engagements through in countries where Corpshore does not have its own legal entity, together with the technology and verification vendors that support the platform.
Our policy
Corpshore has zero tolerance for modern slavery, forced labour, debt bondage, or human trafficking, in its own operations and in any partner entity it works with. This commitment applies to every engagement type the platform supports: direct hire, employer-of-record, contractor-of-record, and AI-agent engagements.
No recruitment fees charged to workers
A common mechanism for exploitative labour practices is a recruitment or placement fee charged to the worker, which can trap someone in debt to their employer or recruiter. Corpshore's platform fee for candidates is 0%, permanently, by design, not as a promotional rate. We do not charge candidates to create a profile, apply to roles, or be placed in an engagement.
Due diligence
Every worker engaged through the platform completes identity verification, a document check plus a liveness selfie, before being matched or engaged. This exists primarily to protect the integrity of the platform, but it also functions as a basic safeguard against the kind of identity concealment that can accompany trafficking and forced labour. We intend to extend due diligence to partner employer-of-record entities themselves: screening a partner before routing engagements through them, and including modern slavery and labour-standards obligations in our contracts with them.
Risk assessment
We assess modern slavery risk as higher in: countries with weaker statutory labour protections or enforcement, engagements routed through a subcontracted partner entity rather than a Corpshore-owned one, and any recruitment or placement practice that charges a fee to the worker, which Corpshore does not do and will not permit a partner entity to do either on our platform.
Training
We intend to provide relevant staff, including those involved in onboarding partner employer-of-record entities and reviewing engagements, with training to recognise the signs of modern slavery and forced labour, and to know how to escalate a concern.
Measuring effectiveness
We intend to review this statement, and the due-diligence and risk-assessment steps behind it, at least annually, and to update it as our understanding of risk in our own supply chain develops.
Approval
A statement of this kind is typically required to be approved by an organisation's board or an equivalent senior governing body before publication. This draft has not yet received that approval; it should not be published, cited, or relied on as a final statement until it has.
