UNILINK Education
UNILINK's standing environmental, social and governance framework for its professional-services operations in Australia and China, with clear responsibilities, proportionate controls and evidence-based reporting.
Policy status
In force
Effective 1 August 2026
Covered entities
Two
Australia and China
Sub-agents
None
Counselling delivered directly
Independent assurance
None
No figure here is assured
The umbrella policy covers all three. The environmental commitments have their own page so that the detail lives in one place, and there is never a second, conflicting environmental policy to reconcile.
Office energy, business travel, digital and cloud services, IT equipment and waste.
The environmental commitments are the E pillar of the umbrella policy below. The detailed policy, the 2026–2028 action plan and the planned FY2026/27 emissions baseline are set out in full on the sustainability page rather than repeated here.
Read the environmental detail →Labour rights, modern slavery risk, student protection and service integrity.
UNILINK employs its counselling staff directly and uses no sub-agents for its core counselling and application-processing services, which keeps the service supply chain short. The voluntary statement sets out the risk assessment, current controls and areas where risk is not yet fully assessed.
Modern slavery and human rights →Integrity, conflicts of interest, anti-bribery, privacy, records and responsible AI.
Accountability sits with the Director. Baining Wu is ESG Owner and retains AI accountability; Mavis Xiaomao Wang leads Australia operations and Baining Wu leads China operations.
Code of conduct →Both entities are named, registered and checkable. “Covered entities” is an operational description: it does not, by itself, assert a parent, subsidiary or ownership relationship between them.

The policy applies to directors and employees. Contractors and suppliers are expected to meet relevant provisions to the extent UNILINK can reasonably direct or influence their work.
One person may hold more than one of these roles in an organisation of this size, but the assignment and duties have to be written down.
Director — Baining Wu
Approved the policy and remains accountable for it. Receives escalations, policy exceptions and corrective actions.
ESG Owner — Baining Wu
Risk register, evidence register, staff training, annual review and the public progress update.
AI Accountable Owner — Baining Wu
Material AI use cases, privacy and human-oversight controls, and the route to contest an AI-supported outcome.
Office Operations Leads
Australia — Mavis Xiaomao Wang; China — Baining Wu. Records, activity data and first-line escalation.
UNILINK does not tolerate modern slavery or serious labour exploitation in its operations or supply chains, including forced labour, human trafficking, servitude, debt bondage and the worst forms of child labour. The statement below is voluntary: it has not been lodged on the Australian Government Modern Slavery Statements Register and has not been independently assured.
Checks are proportionate to risk rather than applied uniformly to every supplier. A review may cover:
A risk finding does not automatically require termination. The decision weighs severity, leverage, the impact on workers, and whether remediation is credible.
These categories get attention first. UNILINK's own counselling and application processing are delivered by directly employed staff, with no sub-agents, which keeps the service supply chain short.
Employees, contractors, suppliers, students and other stakeholders can raise an ESG, human-rights, integrity, privacy or AI-governance concern by emailing [email protected]. The policy establishes this as a confidential channel with an acknowledgement target, protection from retaliation for anyone raising a concern in good faith, and a documented assessment and corrective-action process.
Use the subject “Confidential ESG concern”. Concerns connected with goods or services provided to a client may also be raised through that client's applicable complaints and speak-up channels.
This approved plan also serves as the modern-slavery action plan and supply-chain risk mitigation plan. Actions remain planned unless the document records that their completion evidence exists.
Approval and ownership
Effective 1 August 2026 / first 30 days
Director approval and named owners are complete. Staff briefing and the risk and evidence registers follow within the stated implementation period.
Controls in operation

Annual staff training on modern slavery and responsible business; activity data collected for the first emissions baseline; supplier and incident records maintained.
First public progress update
Proposed by 30 September 2027
Completed actions distinguished from planned actions, material data gaps explained, and any independent assurance stated. No result will be reported as achieved before it is.
Emissions management. The emissions workstream of this plan is set out in full, with its data boundary, owners and evidence register, in the Environmental Sustainability page and its Environmental Action and Emissions Management Plan 2026–2028.

Each document records approval by Baining Wu, Director, and an effective date of 1 August 2026.

Environmental documents
The Environmental Sustainability Policy and the Environmental Action and Emissions Management Plan 2026–2028 are published together with the emissions detail on the Environmental Sustainability page, so there is one source for the environmental position rather than two.
Stating this plainly is part of the framework. A plan, a target or a certification will not be presented as an achieved result, and where data is incomplete the limitation is stated rather than filled in with a zero.
