Modern slavery statement

A voluntary statement from Wartens Ltd, trading as EDWartens UK, on modern slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chains.

Last updated 23 October 2026

Status of this statement

This statement is for 2026. Wartens Ltd is below the £36 million annual turnover threshold, so we are not legally required to publish a slavery and human trafficking statement under section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. We publish this statement voluntarily, so that learners, employers, partners and staff can see the commitments we make.

Our commitment

Wartens Ltd is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships. We take a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour and human trafficking in any part of our business or supply chains.

Our business

Wartens Ltd is a UK company. Its training division, EDWartens UK, delivers online industrial automation courses: live classes, the self-paced AI Module and free self-paced courses. It also runs a job board and the EDWartens Lab, an online 3D learning environment. Our registered office is 8 Lyon Road, Milton Keynes MK1 1EX.

Our people

We expect everyone who works for us to have a written contract and to be paid at least the National Minimum Wage or National Living Wage that applies to them. We carry out right-to-work checks before anyone starts work with us. Anyone working with us can raise a concern through our grievance process.

Our supply chain

Our supply chain is small. It includes software and IT providers, professional services, and office and facilities suppliers.

Our expectations of suppliers

We expect our suppliers to comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 where it applies to them, and to treat their workers fairly and lawfully. If we find credible evidence of modern slavery or human trafficking in a supplier, we will act on it, which can include ending the relationship.

Raising a concern

We encourage everyone who works with us, including staff, contractors, learners and partners, to raise concerns without fear of retaliation. If you believe modern slavery is happening in our business or supply chain, contact us at info@wartens.com, or write to Wartens Ltd, 8 Lyon Road, Milton Keynes MK1 1EX, United Kingdom. You can also call the Modern Slavery Helpline in the UK on 0800 0121 700.
