At Old Oak Common Florist, we are firmly committed to operating in a transparent and ethical manner. As a trusted florist serving households and businesses in Old Oak Common and the surrounding areas, we recognise our responsibility to lead by example in the fight against modern slavery and human trafficking. We uphold the highest standards to ensure our products, services, and operations are free from any forms of exploitation or abuse.
We have a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery in all its forms, including forced labour, child labour, human trafficking, and any practices that compromise human dignity. We believe that everyone deserves to work in an environment free from coercion and exploitation. This policy applies to all staff, suppliers, subcontractors, and any third parties working with us.
Old Oak Common Florist is committed to ensuring our supply chains are free from modern slavery. We conduct due diligence on all new and existing suppliers to assess their compliance with our ethical standards. This includes requesting information about their employment practices, auditing where appropriate, and seeking written confirmation that they adhere to anti-slavery laws. Should any supplier fail to meet our requirements, we reserve the right to take immediate action, including terminating the relationship if necessary.
We understand that awareness is key to identifying and preventing modern slavery. All staff at Old Oak Common Florist receive regular training on how to recognise signs of exploitation and how to respond to concerns effectively. Training covers relevant legislation, company policies, and practical steps staff can take if they suspect unethical practices – whether within our premises or elsewhere in our supply chain.
We encourage a culture of openness and accountability. Any employee, supplier, or member of our wider community who suspects or is aware of potential modern slavery is urged to raise their concerns in confidence. We have established clear internal reporting channels to ensure reports are taken seriously, investigated promptly, and handled with sensitivity. We will not tolerate victimisation or retaliation against those who report genuine concerns.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure its effectiveness and relevance. We are committed to continuously improving our policies and practices in response to emerging risks, changes in legislation, and feedback from stakeholders. Updates and improvements will be documented as part of our ongoing commitment to combating modern slavery in all its forms.
As a longstanding florist in Old Oak Common, trusted by local households and businesses, we remain dedicated to upholding the highest ethical standards. We believe our commitment to eradicating modern slavery protects the values and wellbeing of our customers, our team, and the broader community. We welcome feedback on our policies and will continue striving to make a meaningful difference in the fight against modern slavery.
