Modern Slavery & Anti-Trafficking

Discreet Careers is a recruitment-only platform. We connect adults with employers across the adult industry — we do not host adult content and we never facilitate exploitation.

We are committed to conducting our business in a way that prevents modern slavery and human trafficking, in line with the principles of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. Everyone on our platform must be over 18, acting freely, and free to leave any role at any time.

Modern slavery is the illegal exploitation of people for personal or commercial gain. It can affect anyone, of any background, and is often hidden. It includes:

• Human trafficking — moving or recruiting someone through force, fraud or coercion for exploitation
• Forced labour — being made to work through threats, debt, or without genuine, free consent
• Sexual exploitation — being coerced, deceived or forced into sexual activity or services
• Debt bondage — being told you must work to pay off a 'debt' you can never clear
• Coercion or control — threats, isolation, or control of your money, documents or movement

You might notice these signs in a candidate, a colleague, or someone you meet through work. One sign alone may be innocent — but several together are a reason to seek advice:

• Someone else controls their money, phone, ID or travel documents
• They can't freely leave their job, home or a situation
• They seem coached, fearful, or a third party answers for them
• Wages are unpaid, withheld, or paid to someone else
• They owe a 'debt' for travel, accommodation or a job they can't pay off
• Signs of physical control, injury, neglect or being watched
• They live and work at the same address, or in overcrowded conditions
• They are reluctant to give details, or their story keeps changing

Exploitation often starts with a recruitment offer. Be cautious of any job — on this platform or anywhere else — that shows these red flags:

• Guaranteed, unrealistic earnings with no clear role or duties
• Upfront fees for training, a 'visa', travel, accommodation or the job itself
• Requests to hold your passport, ID or bank cards
• Accommodation or travel tied to the job as a debt you must repay
• Pressure to decide instantly, travel urgently, or keep it secret
• Vague or unverifiable employer, or contact only via untraceable channels

A legitimate employer never asks for upfront fees, never holds your identity documents, and never ties your freedom to a debt.

If something doesn't feel right, report it. You do not need proof, and you can report on behalf of someone else.

  Report labour exploitation

Every report of suspected slavery, trafficking or exploitation is treated as a priority. When we receive one, our trained safety team will:

• Review it urgently and escalate it to a senior safety lead
• Preserve the relevant records and evidence securely
• Take protective action on any account involved (suspension, removal, verification)
• Cooperate fully with the police and other UK authorities where lawful
• Put the safety and wishes of the person at risk first, and keep your report confidential

If it is safe to do so, keeping a record helps the authorities act. Never put yourself at risk to gather evidence.

• Do not confront the person you suspect of exploiting someone
• Take screenshots of messages, job ads or profiles before they can be deleted
• Note dates, times, names, locations and what was said
• Keep any documents, receipts or 'contracts' you were given
• Don't delete your own messages, applications or job history

If you have experienced exploitation, help is available and you are not to blame. The Modern Slavery Helpline (08000 121 700) and the Salvation Army referral line (0800 808 3733) can arrange confidential support, safe accommodation and advocacy, regardless of your immigration status. In an emergency, always call 999.

We support the aims of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and take a risk-based approach to preventing exploitation across our platform — through age and identity checks, employer verification, content moderation and staff training. We keep these measures under review and will cooperate with any lawful request from UK law enforcement.

For any question about this page or to raise a concern privately, contact our team. If a person is in immediate danger, always call 999 first.
