Florist Earls Court is committed to preventing all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking in its operations and supply chain. As a respected local florist serving the Earls Court community, it is our duty to ensure that our business upholds the highest standards of human rights, dignity and respect. We firmly believe that our responsibility goes beyond delivering beautiful flowers; it extends to the people and communities behind every product we offer.
We operate a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour, and human trafficking in any part of our organisation or supply chains. Our senior management leads by example, ensuring that ethical conduct is woven into every aspect of our daily operations. This zero tolerance attitude is central to our values and our mission as a trusted florist within the Earls Court community.
Florist Earls Court recognises that modern slavery risks are often hidden deep within supply chains. As such, we strive to work only with reputable suppliers who share our dedication to fair labour practices. We conduct due diligence checks on our vendors and service providers, requesting information about their own anti-slavery measures. Where possible, we include clauses in our agreements that require compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015. Our procurement process is designed to continually assess and mitigate any risk of modern slavery within our supply chain.
Our team, including all new hires and existing employees, receives training on how to identify signs of modern slavery and human trafficking. This includes information on vulnerability factors, reporting mechanisms, and our company’s obligations under relevant laws. By raising staff awareness, we empower our employees to be vigilant and proactive in maintaining a safe workplace and respectful supply chain.
We encourage everyone, both within our organisation and among our external partners, to speak up if they suspect any form of modern slavery is occurring. Our staff know whom to approach internally if they have concerns, and we foster a culture of openness, transparency, and confidentiality to ensure that reports can be made without fear of retaliation. Any allegations or suspicions are taken seriously, investigated promptly and, where necessary, escalated to the appropriate authorities. We remain committed to remedying any breaches swiftly and decisively.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains current and effective. We assess potential risk areas, audit supplier compliance, and update internal policies and training programmes as needed. Any changes in procedures or legal requirements are swiftly incorporated into our business operations. Our continuous improvement approach ensures we remain vigilant and responsive to this ever-evolving issue.
As a trusted florist in Earls Court, supplying households and businesses throughout the neighbourhood and beyond, Florist Earls Court recognises our responsibility to act ethically and with integrity at all times. By implementing, updating, and adhering to the principles outlined in this statement, we aim not just to comply with the law, but to be a positive example in our industry and community.
This statement reflects our ongoing commitment as a business that cares for people as much as we do for flowers.
