Florist Eastcote is committed to conducting our business ethically, transparently, and with the utmost respect for human rights. As a trusted local florist serving households and businesses in Eastcote and the wider community, we recognise our responsibility to prevent all forms of modern slavery, including forced labour, human trafficking, and exploitation within our own operations and throughout our supply chain.
We have a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking. We will not tolerate, permit, or condone any form of modern slavery in any part of our business or within our supply chains. All employees, contractors, partners, and suppliers are expected to uphold this commitment, ensuring that anyone working with or for Florist Eastcote is treated with dignity, fairness, and respect.
As a business that works closely with various suppliers, particularly in sourcing flowers and associated products, we take proactive steps to ensure our partners also uphold high ethical standards. All prospective and existing suppliers are subject to a thorough due diligence process. This process includes evaluating compliance with labour laws, ethical business practices, and the absence of exploitative conditions within their businesses and supply networks. We reserve the right to cease business with any supplier or partner found to be acting in contravention of our values or these requirements.
Florist Eastcote provides ongoing training to our staff to raise awareness and understanding of the risks associated with modern slavery. Training covers how to identify potential signs of exploitation and how to respond appropriately. By equipping our team with knowledge and resources, we help prevent modern slavery and foster a culture of vigilance and responsibility in our workplace.
We actively encourage our employees, suppliers, and customers to report any concerns relating to modern slavery or unethical conduct confidentially. Clear and accessible reporting channels are in place to ensure that all concerns are taken seriously and addressed promptly. We guarantee that there will be no retaliation against anyone raising concerns in good faith. Any allegations or evidence of modern slavery will be investigated thoroughly, and appropriate remedial action will be taken immediately if necessary.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains effective and relevant. We are committed to ongoing improvement in our approach, reflecting changes in best practice, industry standards, and legislation. Regular reviews ensure that we adapt our processes and maintain our strong commitment to safeguarding human rights.
Our commitment to combatting modern slavery is rooted in our role as a trusted florist and an integral member of the Eastcote community. We take these responsibilities seriously, continuously striving to operate with integrity and care for our customers, staff, suppliers, and wider society.
This statement has been approved by the management of Florist Eastcote and will be reviewed and updated as necessary, at least once every year, to ensure ongoing compliance and transparency.
