  • Interserve Modern Slavery Statement
    Interserve Modern Slavery statement We have a workforce of c 45,000 in the UK, c5,000 in our overseas subsidiaries and c22,000 in our Middle East associate companies, delivering construction, support services, and frontline services covering a range of sectors, worldwide.1 In addition to our directly employed workforce there are many people employed in our supply chain. Our values and our culture guide us to operate ethically and transparently. Consequently, we are committed to ensuring that Modern Slavery2 does not exist in our workforce or our supply chain. This statement should be read in conjunction with our Human Rights policy, http://www.interserve.com/docs/default-source/about/policies/human-rights-policy.pdf and with the policies and the supplier codes of conduct of our operating companies which state our position on human rights and the ethical standards we set for our own business activities and expect of our supply chain. Our whistle blowing policy and procedures http://www.interserve.com/docs/defaultsource/about/policies/whistle-blowing- policy.pdf?sfvrsn=14 provide clear guidance for our own employees and those employed in our supply chain on what to do should they suspect modern slavery is taking place. The main Modern Slavery risk within our subsidiaries’ operations stems from bringing workers employed by other companies on to our own or our customers’ sites, particularly agency workers. There are also potential risks in our supply chain in relation to goods and services at tiers 1 and below. Our suppliers and sub-contractors are required to comply with our business practices and ethical supply policies and our site induction processes extend to sub-contractors’ workers operating on our sites.

    Completed acquisition by Interserve plc of the facilities management business of Rentokil Initial plc (Initial Facilities) ME/6432-14 The CMA’s decision on clearance under section 33(1) given on 29 May 2014. Full text of the decision published on 11 June 2014. Please note that the square brackets indicate figures or text which have been deleted or replaced in ranges at the request of the parties for reasons of commercial confidentiality. Summary 1. On 18 March 2014, Interserve plc (Interserve) acquired the facilities management (FM) business (Initial Facilities) of Rentokil Initial plc (Rentokil) through the purchase of a combination of shares and assets. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) considers that the parties have ceased to be distinct and that the turnover test in section 23(1)(b) of the Enterprise Act 2002 (the Act) is met. The CMA therefore believes that it is or may be the case that a relevant merger situation has been created. 2. The parties notified the completed merger to the Office of Fair Trading (OFT)1 on 31 March 2014. The administrative deadline for the CMA to make a decision on whether or not to refer the merger to a phase II investigation is 29 May 2014. 3. The parties overlapped in the provision of FM services in the UK. The CMA analysed the effects of the merger on the provision of FM services in the UK as a whole, and also taking into account the information received by it on how competition varies across certain segments and geographies. 1 The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) was established on 1 October 2013.
