JAMS Software
Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement
Introduction
This Statement is made in accordance with Section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act, 2015, and constitutes our Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement for the period from June 1, 2025*, ending December 31, 2025.
Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It can take various forms, and for the purposes of this Statement, the term “modern slavery” is used to encompass slavery, forced and compulsory labor, and human trafficking. The steps JAMS Software has taken to address modern slavery in our global operations are outlined below. We are committed to the ongoing evaluation of the steps taken, assessing their effectiveness, and identifying any additional measures required. We intend to regularly assess the results of our processes to ensure that modern slavery risks are addressed in a manner consistent with the applicable law. Based on our current actions to address these risks, we are not aware of any modern slavery in our operations or those of our suppliers.
Our Business and Supply Chain
JAMS is an IT orchestration solution that automates, centralizes, and manages scheduled jobs and workflows across complex IT environments. We have entities in the United States and Armenia, and customers around the world. While our annual turnover in 2025 did not exceed £36 million, we have implemented a modern slavery policy as a best practice in the industry, and in anticipation of reaching that threshold in the near future; JAMS publishes this statement voluntarily as a matter of ethical practice and in anticipation of continued growth.
We conduct our business in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, and we require all our suppliers to do the same. Most of our suppliers are US-based, global suppliers of information technology software and infrastructure. The software business sector is not considered high-risk, and JAMS does not have intricate supply chains (or partnerships) with businesses based in impoverished regions of the world, where labor laws are non-existent or are not enforced. As such we have no reason to believe there is any slavery or human trafficking in our supply chain. JAMS’s Armenian operations are subject to the same Code of Conduct, employment standards, and ethical requirements as all other JAMS operations globally.
Due Diligence & Understanding the Risks
JAMS undertakes due diligence when considering taking on new suppliers and regularly reviews its existing suppliers. The due diligence undertaken in respect of suppliers is adapted dependent on the type of supplier and any areas of risk identified. As a software company whose vendors are predominantly established, US-based SaaS providers, our supply chains are in any event small. The organization’s due diligence and risk reviews include:
Mapping the supply chain broadly to assess product or geographical risks of modern slavery and human trafficking. Evaluating the modern slavery and human trafficking risks of each new supplier.
Reviewing on a regular basis all aspects of the supply chain based on the supply chain mapping.
Considering high-risk countries where modern slavery is more prevalent.
Including language in supplier contracts to require that services to be performed are done in accordance with relevant laws, regulations and guidelines, and any locally applicable anti-slavery and human trafficking laws, statutes and regulations.
JAMS may rely on audit provisions in its supplier contracts, where applicable, to permit it to verify its suppliers’ compliance with contractual representations.
Our Effectiveness
The organization has reviewed its key performance indicators (KPIs) with consideration of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. As a result, the organization:
Requires all relevant staff to complete training on modern slavery.
Established a supplier evaluation process that assesses potential suppliers before they enter the supply chain.
Reviewed existing supply chain relationships and confirmed that all relevant suppliers meet the organization’s ethical and legal standards.
Where we do identify a potential risk, we will take steps to remediate it through legitimate and proportionate processes. To this date, we have not identified any current suspected incidences of modern slavery in our supply chain.
Training
To ensure a high-level understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and our organization, we provide training to relevant members of staff. These training sessions make the stakeholders aware of the necessary issues and indicators which they must keep in mind to ensure the organizational practices and the supply chain are free from modern slavery. Training needs will be periodically evaluated by JAMS leadership and may be revised as necessary.
Approval, Communication, and Review
This Modern Slavery Act Disclosure Statement is subject to annual review and approval by the JAMS Board of Directors, or sooner in response to significant changes in JAMS’s business practices or applicable law and regulations. The Modern Slavery Statement for the financial year ending December 31, 2025, is approved by JAMS’s Board of Directors as of January 1, 2026.
