About Us

Fidum Property Management Ltd isa firm of property consultants based in the United Kingdom. We provide property management services across England and Wales. We subscribe to the core values of Trust, Integrity, Respect, Friendliness and Excellence, while at the same time operating as a modern and commercial business. These values pervade the firm at all levels and this is demonstrated in all our dealings; in the service we provide, the way we treat our employees and our clients and our relationships with suppliers.

Our Commitment

As a firm, we are committed to playing a role in the reduction of modern slavery and human trafficking. It is important to us that our clients see that we value ethical behaviour and we do not subscribe to poor ethical standards. We strive to ensure that our employees are aware of social issues and are trained accordingly.

Risk Assessment

As a small professional services firm, our supply chains are not extensive. We have assessed the risk of modern slavery within our business lines, particularly where we are reliant on external contractors. In parallel, we have reviewed the suppliers whom we have engaged in the past year. The majority of these are based in the United Kingdom, many of them are small businesses who are not extensively exposed to the risk of modern slavery. The suppliers with whom we most frequently engage are other professional services firms, institutions such as Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (“RICS”) or local government bodies. Other suppliers include suppliers of office goods, information technology equipment and catering. In compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015, we will continue to monitor and review our suppliers and supply chains on an ongoing basis, particularly those suppliers based in higher risk jurisdictions.

Supplier Due Diligence

We continue to enhance our supplier due diligence and as part of this process, we review each new supplier we onboard. We are aware that in certain sectors of our business we may have a higher exposure to unethical practices such as Information Management or Facilities Management and as such, a higher standard of due diligence is carried out on these suppliers.

Policies

In line with our values and business processes, we have various policies to address ethical behaviour across the business, including our Equality and Diversity Policy.

Our Recruitment Process

As part of our recruitment policies and procedures, we only use reputable recruitment firms and comply with all relevant laws and regulations. We regularly review our recruitment procedures and providers as well as our arrangements for employee welfare and care. All our employees are paid at least the minimum wage.
