NightVision Supply Chains

Our supply chain consists of key partners and vendors, including:

  • Software and cybersecurity service providers
  • Third-party consultants, including legal, financial, and IT security professionals

Modern Slavery Risks

NV continuously assess potential risks related to Modern Slavery within our supply chain based on the following principles:

  • ‍Industry and Operations: As a security solutions provider, NV does not engage in manufacturing processes directly, nor does NV subcontract third-party factories for production.
  • ‍Employment Practices: NV enforces rigorous hiring and employment verification processes to ensure all employees and contractors meet legal work authorization requirements.
  • ‍Vendor Assessments: NV conducts due diligence to evaluate the ethical standing of our vendors, with a particular focus on those in regions or industries considered high-risk.
  • ‍Geographic Considerations: NV prioritizes working with suppliers and partners in regions with strong labor protections, minimizing exposure to unethical labor practices.

Based on these factors, we consider the overall risk of Modern Slavery within our operations to be low. However, we remain vigilant and proactive in our mitigation strategies.
