Modern Slavery Policy Statement

CSK Property Service PTY LTD (CSK) is committed to conducting business ethically, responsibly, and in compliance with Australian Laws, including the Modern Slavery Act 2018. Although CSK is not legally required to lodge a Modern Slavery Statement under the Act, we recognise our responsibilty to identify, prevent and address modern slavery risks within our operations and supply chains. 

​

This policy outlines our approach to safeguarding workers, promoting fair working conditions, and ensuring our business practices do not contribute to any form of modern slavery. 

1. Why This Matters

  • Our work involves engaging staff in roles that may be vulnerable (e.g. temporary workers, casual staff, or migrant workers).

  • The cleaning sector can have complex subcontracting arrangements, which increases modern slavery risk.

  • As a service provider to education institutions, we have a duty to model ethical labour practices.

  • We commit to continuously improving how we identify, prevent, and remediate any risk of modern slavery.

​

2. Scope

This policy applies to:

  • All CSK employees

  • Contractors and subcontractors

  • Suppliers and service providers engaged by CSK

It covers all operations performed by CSK, including cleaning services across schools, commercial buildings, and community facilities.

​

3. What is Modern Slavery?

Modern slavery involves situations where a person cannot refuse or leave work because of coercion, threats, or deception. It includes:

  • Forced labour

  • Human trafficking

  • Servitude

  • Debt bondage

  • Forced marriage

  • Child labour

  • Exploitation of vulnerable or migrant workers

CSK does not tolerate any form of modern slavery in its operations or supply chains.

  • Reserve the right to discontinue relationships with suppliers who do not meet our standards

​

7. Risk Identification & Mitigation

We assess modern slavery risks by considering:
