At Greenford Florist, we are committed to ensuring that modern slavery, human trafficking, and all forms of forced labour have no place in our business or supply chains. As a trusted flower shop serving households and businesses throughout Greenford, we recognise our responsibility to maintain the highest standards of ethical conduct and vigilance. This Modern Slavery Statement explains the steps we take to prevent, identify, and respond to the risks of modern slavery within all areas of our operations.
Greenford Florist has a strict zero tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. We do not tolerate abuse, exploitation, or unethical working conditions in any part of our business or among our suppliers. This policy is clearly communicated to all employees and suppliers. We expect everyone connected to Greenford Florist to uphold these values and maintain a working environment that respects the fundamental rights of all individuals.
We understand that effective prevention of modern slavery extends beyond our direct employees and requires ongoing diligence across our supply chains. Greenford Florist conducts regular assessments of its suppliers, sourcing partners, and service providers. All new and existing suppliers are required to provide assurances regarding their compliance with anti-slavery laws and our own standards. We look for evidence of good labour practices, proper documentation, and monitor for any risks of forced or child labour in the sourcing of flowers, packaging, and associated goods.
Our employees are central to the success of our anti-slavery efforts. We provide training to all staff members so they can recognise the signs of modern slavery and human trafficking, understand the risks relevant to the floral industry, and know how to report potential concerns. Ongoing training initiatives ensure that our team remains aware of their responsibilities and can respond effectively to evolving risks in our sector.
Greenford Florist supports a culture of openness and accountability. We encourage employees, suppliers, and customers to report any suspicions or concerns relating to modern slavery or unethical practices in our business or supply chains. Reports are investigated thoroughly, confidentially, and in line with our whistleblowing procedures. Corrective actions are taken whenever necessary, including partnership reviews and, where appropriate, engagement with local authorities.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to assess our progress, account for legislative updates, and implement additional best practices. We evaluate our policies, procedures, supplier relationships, and training effectiveness every year. Where needed, improvements are made to enhance our ability to detect, prevent, and remedy modern slavery risks. This commitment reflects our responsibility as a reliable and ethical florist in the Greenford community.
As a Greenford florist with deep roots in our local community, we take seriously the trust that households, businesses, and organisations place in us. We know that our actions impact not only those we serve directly but also those who contribute to our business behind the scenes. By maintaining robust anti-slavery practices, we demonstrate our dedication to upholding the highest ethical standards in every flower arrangement, delivery, and service we provide.
This Modern Slavery Statement is made for the financial year 2024 and is approved by the management of Greenford Florist.
