At Flowers Hillingdon, we are firmly committed to upholding human rights and ensuring that our business and supply chains are free from any form of modern slavery or human trafficking. We operate a zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and expect the same high standards from our staff, suppliers, and business partners. As a respected florist serving local households and businesses across Hillingdon, we recognise the responsibility we have to the wider community and take every measure to uphold ethical practices at all levels of our operations.
We acknowledge that our supply chains are critical touchpoints in preventing modern slavery. Flowers Hillingdon has robust supplier due diligence processes in place to identify, assess, and mitigate any potential risks related to modern slavery or human trafficking. Before we engage with any supplier, they are thoroughly vetted and required to demonstrate their compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and other relevant legislation. Ongoing assessments and regular reviews are conducted to ensure continued adherence to these principles. We work only with suppliers who share our commitment to ethical transparency and accountability.
We believe that staff awareness is essential in the fight against modern slavery. All Flowers Hillingdon employees receive comprehensive training aimed at recognising the signs of modern slavery and understanding the steps to take if they suspect unethical practices either within our operations or supply chain. Regular refresher sessions ensure our team remains vigilant and up to date on the latest developments and best practices concerning anti-slavery legislation and procedures.
Flowers Hillingdon maintains clear and confidential channels through which staff, suppliers, and other stakeholders can report concerns regarding modern slavery or unethical behaviour. We encourage openness and will support anyone who raises legitimate concerns in good faith, ensuring they face no retaliation or disadvantage. Every report is treated seriously and investigated thoroughly, and, where necessary, appropriate actions are promptly taken.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually in line with our ongoing commitment to continuous improvement. As laws, best practices, and the nature of risks evolve, so too does our approach. Each year, we assess the effectiveness of our anti-slavery measures, review our policies and training, and make adjustments as necessary to maintain the highest standards of compliance and ethical conduct throughout our business and supply chain.
As a long-standing member of the Hillingdon community, Flowers Hillingdon takes seriously our responsibility to maintain trust with our customers, employees, suppliers, and neighbours. Upholding ethical principles not only protects those vulnerable to exploitation, but also reinforces the foundation of our commitment to delivering honest, high-quality service to every household and business we serve. We are resolutely dedicated to eradicating all forms of modern slavery from our sphere of influence, standing with our community in the fight for dignity, safety, and respect for all.
