This statement (‘the Statement’) is issued on behalf of Chapman Freeborn Group responding to the requirements of the United Kingdom’s Modern Slavery Act 2015, covering the financial year ended on 31 December 2025 and is published in accordance with the Group’s annual reporting cycle. The full list of entities covered by the Statement can be found in Appendix 1.
Since publishing its first Modern Slavery Statement, Chapman Freeborn Group has increased transparency each year about its approach to human rights and modern slavery whilst also ensuring this approach continues to develop.
Human rights abuses and modern slavery in all its forms are unacceptable to the group. It therefore has a responsibility to both understand and reduce human rights risk within its businesses and supply chain. The group is fully committed to upholding compliance with all applicable laws across all the regions and countries we engage in. Where national law and international human rights standards differ, we will follow the higher standard; when faced with conflicting requirements, we will adhere to national law, while seeking ways to honour the principles of internationally recognised human rights. Our commitment is based on the following international Human Rights agreements and commitments:
Chapman Freeborn Group is a subsidiary signatory of the UN Global Compact and expressed its commitment in supporting the ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact on Human Rights, Labour, Environment and Anti- corruption, with the purpose of making them part of our strategy, culture and day-to-day operations of our company.
As a subsidiary signatory we will promote transparency through the reporting of progress against these ten principles, as well as the UN Sustainable Development Goals via our Parent company Avia Solutions Groups Communication on Progress (CoP) as well as their annual ESG Report.
Human rights are moral principles and norms for standards of human behaviour and are regularly protected in law. Every human being is entitled to human rights, without discrimination and regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more.
Modern slavery is a violation of human rights, which involves the slavery of people, prevents the right to freedom of movement, and causes other rights violations. The definition of modern slavery is broad and includes forced labour, servitude, slavery, human trafficking, debt bondage, forced or servile marriage, descent-based slavery, and child labour.
At the end of February 2026, Chapman Freeborn Group had 408 direct employees who work across all our offices globally. 30.1% were based in the United Kingdom. Regionally, the spread consisted of 56.6% in Europe (including the UK), 13.2% in the Americas, 18.4% in the IMEA region, 5.1% in Greater China, and 6.6% in the APAC region.
Given the nature of Chapman Freeborn Group’s business and operations, the workforce is almost entirely office based with employment terms and conditions to match.
We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and aim to ensure that our employees, contingent workforce and supply chain understand our commitment to human rights and are able to identify and report indications of exploitation. We expect all those companies who have, or seek to have, a business relationship with us to act at all times in a way, which is consistent with our anti-slavery values.

To date, there still have been no reported instances of concerns regarding modern slavery or human rights within our businesses or supplier network through any of our channels (e.g. Whistleblowing channel) or through our staff.
