At West Harrow Florist, we take immense pride in serving local households and businesses with integrity, reliability, and care. As a trusted West Harrow florist, we recognise our social responsibility to ensure that all aspects of our business operations and supply chain are free from modern slavery, human trafficking, and exploitation in any form. We are fully committed to upholding and promoting human rights, and we have instituted clear practices to reflect this commitment.
Modern slavery in all its forms – forced labour, servitude, child labour, and human trafficking – is strictly prohibited within our business. We adopt a zero-tolerance approach and expect the same resolute commitment from all our suppliers, contractors, and service providers. Our team is fully briefed on the importance of vigilance and adherence to these principles, and any breach of this policy triggers immediate review and corrective action.
Ethical sourcing is at the core of our business. We have robust due diligence processes in place to assess both prospective and current suppliers. This includes reviewing suppliers' own statements and policies on modern slavery, their employment practices, and the origins of goods supplied. Where necessary, we request confirmation of compliance with anti-slavery legislation before entering or renewing business agreements. We reserve the right to conduct checks or discontinue relationships where concerns arise about labour practices or workforce welfare.
Our staff are key to maintaining our standards. All employees at West Harrow Florist undergo training on recognising the signs of modern slavery and understanding their role in upholding these standards. This training covers due diligence, reporting obligations, and the importance of ethical conduct. Regular refreshers help staff stay informed about evolving best practices and legal obligations in relation to human rights in the workplace and beyond.
We encourage all staff, suppliers, and associates to promptly raise any concerns or suspicions regarding human rights abuses or unethical practices. We operate clear internal channels for reporting such issues in strict confidence, ensuring that everyone knows how to raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Any reports are investigated thoroughly, and appropriate action is taken to remedy or address confirmed issues.
West Harrow Florist is committed to continuous improvement in our approach to preventing modern slavery. We review this statement and our policy implementation annually, taking into account any regulatory changes, industry guidance, or feedback from staff and stakeholders. This process ensures our policies remain effective, relevant, and actionable. Any identified gaps or challenges are addressed as a matter of priority.
We appreciate the trust placed in us by our customers and community, and recognise the influence that local businesses can have in setting standards for ethical conduct. Our approach to modern slavery reflects both our legal obligations and our ethical responsibility as a leading florist in West Harrow. We are dedicated to operating with transparency, accountability, and respect for every individual throughout our business and supply chain.
