Brent Cross Florist is deeply committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking within our business and throughout our supply chains. Recognising our responsibility as a trusted Brent Cross florist serving both local households and businesses, we are dedicated to the highest ethical standards and the protection of human rights. This statement outlines the measures we have implemented, and our ongoing efforts, to ensure that slavery and human trafficking have no place within our operations or those of our suppliers.
We have a clear and robust zero tolerance policy toward modern slavery, forced labour, and human trafficking. We expect the same standards from all those we work with, including suppliers, subcontractors, and business partners. We are committed to acting with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships and to enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking are not taking place in any part of our business or supply chain.
Our efforts to combat modern slavery begin with our suppliers. Prior to forming new supplier relationships, Brent Cross Florist conducts thorough due diligence, including requesting information on suppliers’ practices and policies regarding modern slavery and labour conditions. We expect suppliers to demonstrate their adherence to all applicable laws and regulations and to operate transparently. We regularly review our existing suppliers to ensure ongoing compliance and reserve the right to terminate relationships with suppliers that fail to meet our standards.
Our team’s understanding of modern slavery issues is crucial in our fight to eradicate it. We provide regular training to our staff so they can recognise the signs of modern slavery and understand the steps to take if they have concerns. Staff members are kept informed about the latest updates regarding ethical sourcing and employment practices, empowering them to act if they suspect any form of exploitation within our business or our supply chain.
We encourage openness and support anyone who raises genuine concerns in good faith regarding modern slavery or human trafficking. Employees or third parties can confidentially report any suspicion or evidence of slavery via our established internal channels. All concerns are taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. Any breaches of our policy will be addressed with swift and decisive action in line with our disciplinary procedures.
Brent Cross Florist is committed to reviewing this Modern Slavery Statement annually. We will assess the effectiveness of the steps taken in the previous year, identify areas for improvement, and amend our approach when necessary to address new risks or legislative changes. This annual review process ensures we remain vigilant and proactive, continually strengthening our practices to support the eradication of modern slavery.
As a long-standing florist in Brent Cross, trusted by local families and businesses, we recognise that our actions have a wider impact. Our commitment to fighting modern slavery is a crucial part of our role in the local community, ensuring that every bouquet, arrangement, and delivery upholds our values of respect, dignity, and responsibility.
This statement demonstrates Brent Cross Florist’s ongoing commitment to respecting human rights and protecting vulnerable individuals from exploitation, now and into the future.
