This statement, which has been approved by the Board of Omnicom Media Group Europe Limited, is
made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes our modern slavery and
human trafficking statement for the financial year ending 31 December 2022.
This statement is made on behalf of Omnicom Media Group Europe Limited, and each of its subsidiaries
listed at the end of this statement, (together “we”, “our”, “us”).
We foster a culture of collaboration and focus on investing in our people, protecting the environment
and giving back to the communities in which we operate. We have a zero-tolerance approach to any
form of modern slavery and are committed to establishing effective systems and controls to safeguard
against any form of modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chain.
Our Business
We are leading media services companies and our portfolios provide the best talent, creativity,
technology and innovation to some of the world’s most iconic and successful brands. We always strive
to work to the highest professional standards and comply with all laws, regulations and rules relevant to
our business.
Our Supply Chain
Our key suppliers are media owners, media suppliers, research companies, technology service
providers and software service providers. Modern forms of slavery and human trafficking are not
prevalent in the industries in which these suppliers operate. We expect the same high standards as
those to which we hold ourselves from those businesses with which we work.
We believe the nature of our work, our supply chains and their industries to be low risk in terms of
modern slavery and human trafficking.
Policies
Our corporate responsibility strategy, codified in the Omnicom Group Code of Business Conduct, aims
to improve the impact of our business on society and we are committed to ensuring that there is no
modern slavery or human trafficking in any part of our supply chains or in any part of our business.
Our Supplier Code of Conduct reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in our
business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure
modern slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains. A copy of our
Supplier Code of Conduct can be supplied upon request.
We have taken the following steps since the last publication of our Modern Slavery Act statement:
1. we have continued to update existing websites so that they contain the latest copy of our Modern
Slavery Act statement and Supplier Code of Conduct;
2. we have continued to communicate our Supplier Code of Conduct to our suppliers, in particular to
digital media owners via our Digital Booking Terms & Conditions (a copy of which is available upon
request);
3. we are continuing with our endeavour to negotiate express warranties and indemnities in our
contracts with new suppliers regarding compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and our
Supplier Code of Conduct;
4. we have again identified that modern slavery and human trafficking are not prevalent in the
industries of our key suppliers, and that our suppliers are not located in markets where there is a
high risk and level of exposure to modern slavery and human trafficking; and
5. we are planning to roll out some training for selected members of staff across the group Due to our
zero-tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery, we feel that some of our staff would benefit
from having a clear understanding of (and ability to identify) forms of modern slavery and human
trafficking, as well as how to combat them.
We continue to review our policies and processes in an effort to go beyond basic social and
environmental regulations, to ensure the highest standards in our supply chain (as expected by our
customers and the companies with which we work) and to ensure that no form of forced labour or slavery
is present in our business or our supply chain.
This statement constitutes the modern slavery and human trafficking statement for Omnicom Media
Group Europe Limited and the following subsidiaries:
