StudioNeural: Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

Financial Year 2026 | Published: February 2026

Introduction

In accordance with section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, this statement details the proactive measures StudioNeural has implemented---and continues to develop---to identify, assess, and eliminate risks of human trafficking and modern slavery within our operations and global supply chains. We remain steadfast in our commitment to ethical business practices and social responsibility.

We deliver premium visual content across film, episodic television, advertising, and immersive media. Our collaborative network spans the globe, partnering with major Hollywood studios, leading brands, and top-tier agencies.

Our Strategic Approach

StudioNeural maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of modern slavery or human trafficking. We refuse to engage with any entity known to be involved in such practices.

• Risk Profile: Due to the specialised nature of our creative and digital services, we consider our direct exposure to modern slavery risks to be low.

• Compliance: We are not aware of any breaches of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 within our current operations.

• Accountability: Our client agreements mandate adherence to all relevant UK legislation, including the Modern Slavery Act.

• Supplier Relations: We prioritise long-term partnerships with suppliers who mirror our values. We expect every partner, regardless of location, to uphold the ethical standards outlined in this statement.

Ethical Framework & Policies

To maintain transparency and integrity, StudioNeural operates under a robust suite of internal policies:

• Ethical Complaints and Whistleblowing Policy: We empower all employees, customers, and business partners to report concerns regarding supply chain ethics or slavery risks. Our procedure is designed to ensure disclosures can be made easily and without fear of retaliation.

• Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy: We are committed to conducting all business activities honestly. StudioNeural takes a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption, enforcing effective systems to counter these risks wherever we operate.

• Grievance Policy and Procedure: The company provides a clear, consistent, and fair framework for addressing any internal complaints or grievances raised by our team.

• Fair Treatment at Work Policy: We ensure all employees receive more than the prescribed minimum wage. We apply robust immigration and right-to-work checks and expect these same high standards from all our customers and suppliers.

Raising Awareness

We actively educate our team members---particularly those managing third-party relationships---on the indicators of modern slavery.

• Global Slavery Index: Guidance via www.globalslaveryindex.org.

• Modern Slavery Helpline: Access to help at www.modernslaveryhelpline.org.

• Internal HR System: Information is shared and accessible to all staff via our centralised platform.

Looking Ahead

As we move through the 2026 financial year, StudioNeural will continue to refine our due diligence processes. Our focus remains on strengthening our vetting procedures for both new and existing suppliers to ensure our creative output is supported by a clean and ethical supply chain.
