Introduction
DAY ONE (“we,” “our,” “us”) is committed to ethical business practices and upholding human rights across our global operations. We recognize the significant role we play as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider in combating modern slavery, forced labor, and human trafficking in all forms. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines our efforts to identify, prevent, and address risks of modern slavery in our operations and supply chains, in compliance with relevant laws, including the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth) and other global standards.
About DAY ONE
DAY ONE provides SaaS solutions to customers worldwide, with team members and operations in Australia, India, and other countries. As a global business, we acknowledge the potential risks of modern slavery in our supply chain and within industries connected to our operations.
Our Commitment
We are committed to:
- Preventing all forms of modern slavery, human trafficking, and forced labor within our business and supply chains.
- Promoting ethical practices among our employees, contractors, and suppliers.
- Continuously improving our processes to identify and address modern slavery risks.
Governance and Accountability
We uphold the highest standards of integrity and responsibility in our operations:
- Policies: Our Code of Conduct, Supplier Code of Conduct, and Employment Policies set clear expectations around human rights, fair labor practices, and ethical behavior.
- Training: We provide training to employees, contractors, and partners to raise awareness of modern slavery risks and mitigation strategies.
- Reporting: We maintain secure and anonymous channels for reporting concerns or suspected breaches of human rights.
Risk Assessment in Operations and Supply Chains
DAY ONE has assessed the risks of modern slavery in the following areas:
- Employment Practices: In Australia, India, and other countries where we operate, we ensure compliance with local labor laws, fair wages, and safe working conditions for employees and contractors.
- Supply Chain: While our SaaS operations involve primarily technology and professional services, we recognize that indirect suppliers (e.g., IT hardware, office services, or facilities management) may pose higher risks.
Actions to Address Risks
We mitigate modern slavery risks through:
- Supplier Due Diligence: Evaluating potential suppliers for compliance with human rights standards before onboarding.
- Contractual Obligations: Requiring suppliers to commit to anti-slavery policies and adhere to relevant legislation.
- Regular Audits: Periodically reviewing high-risk suppliers and internal operations to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
- Engagement: Collaborating with partners, industry bodies, and stakeholders to strengthen anti-slavery measures.
Employee and Contractor Standards
We are committed to fair and ethical employment practices, including:
- Zero tolerance for forced labor, debt bondage, or human trafficking.
- Providing contracts that comply with local laws and clearly outline employment terms.
- Ensuring a workplace that is free from discrimination, harassment, or exploitation.
Measuring Effectiveness
To assess the effectiveness of our modern slavery efforts, we:
- Track the implementation of anti-slavery policies across all operations.
- Monitor supplier compliance and audit results.
- Regularly review feedback from employees, contractors, and stakeholders.
Future Steps
We are committed to continuous improvement and will:
- Expand our supplier risk assessments to include additional tiers of the supply chain.
- Enhance employee training programs on modern slavery awareness.
- Report transparently on our progress and findings in future Modern Slavery Statements.
