Last updated on
March 4, 2026

Sphere is committed to respecting human rights and preventing modern slavery in all forms within our operations and supply chains.

Modern slavery includes practices such as forced labour, human trafficking, debt bondage, and child labour. Sphere does not tolerate these practices and seeks to ensure that our business activities are conducted ethically and responsibly.

This statement outlines the steps we take to identify and address potential modern slavery risks in accordance with the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018.

Our activities include:

  • Technology development and manufacturing
  • Hardware and equipment supply
  • Software development
  • Operational services and support
  • Partnerships with technology vendors and suppliers

Our supply chain includes technology manufacturers, component suppliers, logistics providers, and professional services partners.

Modern Slavery Risks

Potential risks of modern slavery may arise within complex global supply chains, particularly where:

  • Electronic components or hardware are sourced internationally
  • Manufacturing occurs in jurisdictions with varying labour standards
  • Multi-tier suppliers are involved in production processes

Sphere recognises these risks and takes steps to mitigate them through responsible sourcing and supplier engagement.

Risk Management and Due Diligence

Sphere seeks to reduce modern slavery risks through a range of measures, including:

  • Working with reputable suppliers and partners
  • Expecting suppliers to comply with applicable labour and employment laws
  • Reviewing supplier practices where risks may exist
  • Addressing concerns where unethical labour practices are suspected

Where risks are identified, we aim to engage with suppliers to resolve concerns and promote improved practices.

Reporting and Accountability

Employees, contractors, and partners are encouraged to report any concerns relating to unethical conduct, human rights issues, or modern slavery risks.

Reports are reviewed and investigated where appropriate.

Continuous Improvement

Sphere is committed to continuously improving its understanding of modern slavery risks and strengthening responsible business practices across our operations and supply chains.

We will continue to review and update our processes to ensure our business activities align with ethical labour standards and Australian regulatory expectations.
