Let’s make tackling modern slavery business as usual for the UK’s future hoteliers.

Shiva Foundation has developed modern slavery training for hospitality students around the UK.

Hospitality is a high-risk sector. The hospitality industry has been deemed one of the highest risk industries in terms of modern slavery by a number of stakeholders, including the UK Director of Labour Market Enforcement, the Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority, the Metropolitan Police and the Home Office. The UK hotels sector specifically has been criticised for its poor response to tackling modern slavery. We believe the industry has a great responsibility to address this crime for the benefit of future potential victims.

The training will cover information about modern slavery generally (using international and UK-specific statistics) and risks in the hospitality sector, in addition to policies, procedures and practices that can be put in place within a hospitality business to spot the signs of modern slavery and report it. With this training, students will have been introduced to modern slavery, the risks specific to the hospitality sector, and to tools to become actors of change as they enter the workforce.

We have successful delivered the training to at least 400 students across 28 modules, at 12 universities and received excellent feedback:

“Great overall training. Great speaker, very engaging and informative.”

“Extremely detailed knowledge about the topic was offered alongside with a number of examples. Very clear and well structured. Good handling of difficult and sensitive issues.”

“The information provided was well delivered, and made me more aware of the modern slavery within the hospitality sector. I am glad that I attended this session as I know that I can use this in the future.”
