Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking Statement
This Statement covers the period from January 1, 2026 to December 31st, 2026.
1.0 Introduction
This Modern Slavery Statement (“Statement”) is made pursuant to:
United Kingdom: Section 54 of the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015;
Australia: the Modern Slavery Act 2018; and
Canada: the Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act (2023).
This Statement describes the steps that Harbor Global, LLC and its affiliates operating in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia and Canada (collectively referred to as “Harbor”, “we” or “our”) has taken, and continues to take, to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking from taking place within our business operations and supply chains.
We are committed to conducting our business with integrity and accountability, upholding the highest standards of ethical and responsible practice. We do not tolerate any form of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking within our operations or supply chains, and we expect the same commitment from all those with whom we do business.
2.0 Our Business and Structure
Harbor is a global consulting and managed services provider to the legal industry. We advise law firms and corporate legal departments on strategy, technology, operations, and information management.
Working closely with an internal network of technology and service partners, our globally integrated teams of industry specialists (including both employees and contractors) support approximately 80% of the world’s largest law firms, and a significant number of Fortune 500 companies.
Harbor is headquartered in Chicago, but operates as one integrated company across North America, the United Kingdom, and Australia. In particular:
Harbor Global UK Professional Services Ltd operates in London, the United Kingdom;
Harbor Global Canada Inc. operates in Moncton, Canada; and
Harbor Global Australia Pty Ltd operates in Docklands, Australia.
3.0 Our Supply Chain
As a professional and software services company, our supply chain primarily comprises professional services, technology platforms, software providers, and office-related goods and services. As a knowledge-based organisation, our exposure to high-risk sectors (such as manufacturing, agriculture, or construction) is low.
Harbor’s agreements with its suppliers require its suppliers to comply with all applicable laws, including by ensuring that its supply chain complies with human rights, labour rights (including forced labour), child labour, and employment laws.
To the extent any materials risks are identified through Harbor’s due diligence measures within our business and Harbor’s supply chains, Harbor will conduct appropriate investigations of such risk and promptly take actions to mitigate and eliminate such risks or impact.
4.0 Policies and Governance
We are committed to maintaining a governance approach that supports ethical conduct, transparency, and respect for human rights throughout our business. Accordingly, we have established internal processes and oversight structures to guide responsible decision-making and compliance – these remain subject to regular review and refinement to ensure they continue to align with emerging practice and legal standards.
Responsibility for overseeing our modern slavery compliance rests with Harbor’s internal operations, including its talent, procurement, and legal teams.
5.0 Due Diligence and Risk Management
We take a risk-based approach to assessing and mitigating modern slavery risks across our business and supply chain. Measures include:
conducting due diligence and risk assessment with new suppliers;
requiring suppliers to confirm adherence to applicable laws, which includes forced labour and trafficking laws; and
monitoring reporting, including through its vendor risk management program, and industry developments to update our risk assessments.
We encourage open communication through our confidential whistleblowing mechanism. All reports of modern slavery, forced labour, or child labour will be investigated and, where substantiated, we will implement remediation plans that may include corrective action, supplier engagement, or termination of relationships.
No instances of modern slavery, forced labour or child labour have been previously identified in our operations or supply chains in 2025.
6.0 Training and Awareness
We provide ongoing training and resources to employees to raise awareness of modern slavery risks and indicators.
We also make our policies accessible company-wide to reinforce a culture of responsibility and vigilance.
7.0 Assessing Effectiveness
We are dedicated to taking appropriate actions to ensure awareness and implement effective measures regarding modern slavery and human trafficking risks, including:
supplier compliance questionnaires (where appropriate);
internal reporting on policy breaches or whistleblowing concerns; and
completion rates for training modules.
8.0 Continuous Improvement
We recognise the importance of continuous improvement in addressing modern slavery risks. Over the next 12 months, we intend to:
enhance supplier engagement and risk mapping within our supply chains;
update our supplier onboarding processes to include enhanced metrics;
enhance and expand targeted training modules for staff in higher-risk procurement categories.
9.0 Approval of this Statement
This Statement was approved by Harbor’s Board of Directors on February 12, 2026 and covers its global operations, including Harbor affiliates in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.
