At SurgEase Innovations, we are committed to conducting business with the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and accountability. We encourage anyone connected to our company employees, contractors, partners, or other stakeholders to speak up if they have genuine concerns about wrongdoing.
At SurgEase Innovations, we believe integrity and transparency are part of our social value. If you see or experience wrongdoing, we want you to feel safe to raise it.
You can raise concerns about issues such as:
- Fraud, bribery, or financial misconduct
- Health and safety risks
- Environmental concerns
- Harassment, discrimination, or unethical behaviour
- Breaches of laws, regulations, or company policies
You can also report modern slavery or human-rights concerns, including forced labour, recruitment fees, retention of identity documents, intimidation or threats, and unsafe or exploitative living/working conditions. Employees, contractors, agency staff, suppliers and supplier workers may use this channel.
Reports are handled confidentially, taken seriously and assessed appropriately. Where an investigation is required, it will be conducted fairly and impartially. We do not tolerate retaliation against anyone who speaks up in good faith.
Where contact details are provided, we aim to acknowledge the report within 2 working days, complete an initial assessment within 5 working days, and establish an appropriate action plan within 10 working days where further action is required. These are operational targets and may vary depending on the nature and complexity of the concern.
Remediation
Where concerns are substantiated, we take corrective actions with suppliers and provide victim-centred support (for example, reimbursement of recruitment fees or back-pay).
Privacy
We collect the minimum necessary information. Reports are handled confidentially by a restricted team. See our Whistleblowing Privacy Notice for retention, access, and storage details.

1. We log and triage your report confidentially under our Human Rights & Modern Slavery programme.
2. If credible indicators are present, we may suspend orders, initiate announced or unannounced audits, and require CAPA from the supplier; serious or repeated breaches can lead to termination and notification of authorities/customers as appropriate.
3.We track actions through our Quality Management System and Management Review to ensure fixes are effective.
Non-retaliation & worker protection
Retaliation against anyone raising a concern is prohibited. We focus on remediation for affected workers (e.g., repayment of recruitment fees, back-pay, contract regularisation).
Governance
Cases are handled by QA/RA & Compliance with HR involvement, overseen by senior management/Board; supplier issues are managed through our Escalation & Remediation process and audit rights in supplier contracts.
Transparency & annual reporting
Relevant aggregate whistleblowing, grievance and remediation trends may be reported through our annual Modern Slavery Statement and other appropriate governance reporting. Individual cases will not be identifiable.
Supply-chain focus areas
Where relevant (e.g., electronics/3TG), we conduct due diligence and may require supplier smelter lists and conformance evidence; modern-slavery risk in such chains is monitored via audits and horizon scanning.
