CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY
Ethics, Sustainability &
Human Rights
At Lifemotion, our commitment to innovation does not stop at patient outcomes. We hold ourselves accountable for our environmental impact, our supply chains, and every person connected to our business.
ENVIRONMENT
Our commitment to a net-zero future
We believe planetary health is human health. As a medical device company, we recognise that the healthcare sector accounts for 4.4% of global carbon emissions — and we are determined to be part of the solution, not the problem.
Net-zero across our entire value chain
Lifemotion pledges to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, aligned with science-based targets and the 1.5°C pathway. We measure and report our carbon footprint annually.
Our Strategic Pillars
Sustainable Design
Environmental considerations are embedded into our R&D from day one — covering material efficiency, device miniaturisation, and elimination of hazardous substances.
Circular Economy
Where safety permits, we prioritise reusable device components and design single-use items with recyclability or take-back programmes in mind.
Low-Carbon Supply Chain
We partner with suppliers who share our sustainability values, favouring local sourcing to minimise transport emissions and promote regional resilience.
Renewable Energy
We are committed to transitioning our operations to 100% renewable energy sources, reducing Scope 2 emissions across all our facilities.
Zero tolerance for modern slavery and human trafficking
Lifemotion takes an unequivocal stance: there is no place for forced labour, exploitation, or human trafficking in our organisation or our supply chains. Although we fall below the mandatory threshold of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, we voluntarily publish this statement as a reflection of our values.
Our Commitments
SUPPLIER VETTING
Every new supplier undergoes a pre-contractual assessment to verify their labour practices. Our contracts include enforceable anti-slavery clauses and audit rights.
FAIR RECRUITMENT
All employees are recruited through fair, transparent processes with no coercion, bonded labour, or exploitation, including those on Skilled Worker Visas.
WHISTLEBLOWING
We maintain a whistleblowing policy that actively encourages reporting of any concerns related to slavery or trafficking, with full protections for those who speak up.
TRAINING & AWARENESS
All staff complete mandatory modern slavery awareness training. Procurement and HR teams receive targeted training to identify and manage risk in their areas.
ONGOING MONITORING
We conduct regular supplier reviews and track incident reports, ensuring concerns are investigated and acted upon promptly.
ANNUAL POLICY REVIEW
Our modern slavery policies and due diligence processes are reviewed every year to reflect best practice and emerging risk.
Measuring
Effectiveness
We track the following performance indicators :
- Training completion rates across all staff
- Supplier audit outcomes against anti-slavery contractual obligations
- Incident reports investigated and resolved
- Annual policy review outcomes
Supply Chain
Our supply chain includes medical equipment and raw material suppliers, maintenance contractors, healthcare professionals (Consultants, Intensivists, Surgeons, Perfusionists, Healthcare Assistants), and administrative, legal, and IT service providers. We work primarily within the EU and Hong Kong/Shenzhen, ensuring compliance with local labour laws and regulations.
Due Diligence
Pre-contractual assessments are conducted for all new suppliers. Contracts include anti-slavery clauses with audit rights. We run a three-phased competency assessment for all healthcare professionals before they take on patient-facing roles, ensuring no coercion or bonded labour is present in any recruitment pathway.
