At Flowers Harold Hill, we are unwavering in our commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all areas of our business and supply chain. As a trusted florist serving the households and businesses of Harold Hill, we recognise the pivotal part we play in promoting ethical practices within our industry. We maintain a strict zero tolerance stance towards any form of modern slavery, including forced labour, servitude, or human trafficking, and we expect the same high standards from everyone involved in our operations.
We understand that responsible sourcing is essential to tackling modern slavery risks. All of our suppliers are subjected to a thorough due diligence process before any agreements are made. This process includes assessing their ethical practices, checking for compliance with relevant laws, and requiring them to provide assurances regarding their labour practices. Our suppliers are expected to uphold values that mirror our own and must agree to meet our standards on human rights and fair working conditions. Whenever possible, we source from local and reputable suppliers to further reduce the risk of modern slavery within the supply chain.
Ensuring that all members of our team are equipped to identify and respond to any potential signs of modern slavery is central to our policy. We provide regular training for our staff on the importance of upholding human rights, understanding what constitutes modern slavery, and recognising indicators of abuse or exploitation. Continuous communication and education within our workplace foster a culture of vigilance and accountability. We encourage our staff to remain alert and to take a proactive role in supporting our zero tolerance policy.
We have established clear reporting procedures for staff, suppliers, and customers to raise any concerns in complete confidence. Any suspicions or reports of modern slavery or unethical conduct can be escalated to management. Concerns are managed sensitively, and all reports are fully investigated, with timely action taken where necessary. We make it clear that reprisals against individuals making genuine reports will not be tolerated, thereby ensuring that everyone feels able to do the right thing without fear of negative consequences.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed each year to ensure its ongoing relevance and effectiveness. This annual review allows us to reflect on any changes in our business structure, evaluate our policies and processes, and identify any new risks or areas for improvement. Where necessary, we strengthen our procedures and increase staff training to address emerging challenges. We are committed to the continual improvement of our approach to modern slavery prevention, keeping our promises to our team, our customers, and the wider community.
Flowers Harold Hill is proud to serve the local Harold Hill community. Our dedication to preventing modern slavery is a reflection of our responsibility as a supplier to households and businesses in the area. By championing ethical practices and holding ourselves and our partners to the highest standards, we strive to protect the rights and wellbeing of everyone we work with, now and into the future.
