Flower Delivery Highams Park recognises that modern slavery and human trafficking are abhorrent crimes and severe violations of fundamental human rights. We are fully committed to preventing these practices within our business operations and supply chains. As a trusted florist, serving the households and businesses of Highams Park, we embrace our responsibility to operate ethically, transparently, and with total respect for human dignity.
We maintain a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child labour. This applies to every aspect of our business, including all suppliers, partners, and contractors we engage with. We expect the highest ethical standards from those we work with and require adherence to all relevant legislation, including the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
We acknowledge that certain areas of our supply chain, particularly the sourcing of flowers, may be vulnerable to issues of modern slavery. To mitigate risk, we conduct careful due diligence when selecting suppliers, giving preference to those with proven commitments to ethical practices. Our supplier assessment process includes reviewing policies, seeking evidence of compliance, and requesting documentation regarding labour practices. Where necessary, we reserve the right to carry out further investigations, request third-party audits, and terminate relationships with suppliers who are found to be in breach of our standards.
All Flower Delivery Highams Park employees receive training to help them identify signs of modern slavery and understand their role in combatting these abuses. We ensure our team is up-to-date with relevant legal obligations and company policies. New staff are given induction briefings covering ethical sourcing and the steps to follow should concerns arise. Ongoing refresher training is provided to strengthen our organisational culture of vigilance and responsibility.
We foster an open environment where staff, suppliers, and other stakeholders are encouraged to raise any concerns about modern slavery confidentially. Clear reporting channels are in place, enabling individuals to report suspected or actual instances of modern slavery without fear of retaliation. Each report is investigated thoroughly and appropriate actions are taken, including escalation to relevant authorities when applicable. We are committed to supporting whistleblowers and ensuring that their concerns are taken seriously and addressed promptly.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually as part of an ongoing commitment to maintain best practices and respond to emerging risks. We assess the effectiveness of our policies, training, and supplier management processes each year, seeking continual improvement. Action plans are revised as needed to ensure robust safeguards remain in place and effective throughout our operations.
As a leading Highams Park florist, Flower Delivery Highams Park serves both local households and businesses, making us a trusted part of the community. We recognise that ethical conduct is not only a legal and moral imperative but also the foundation for building long-term trust with our customers and partners. We remain steadfast in our efforts to champion human rights and eradicate modern slavery from our operations and supply chains.
