As a trusted florist serving households and businesses in Stanmore, Flowers Stanmore recognises its responsibility to uphold the highest ethical standards in all aspects of our operations. We are committed to preventing any form of modern slavery or human trafficking in our business activities and throughout our supply chains. This statement outlines the steps we take to ensure compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and reflects our dedication to transparency, accountability, and safeguarding human rights.
Flowers Stanmore maintains a zero tolerance approach towards modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation in any form. We are unequivocal in our stance: any instance of modern slavery within our business or by our suppliers will not be tolerated, and immediate action will be taken. Our policies are clear and are regularly communicated to all staff and business partners to ensure adherence at every level.
We recognise that the integrity of our supply chain is crucial in the fight against modern slavery. Therefore, we conduct thorough due diligence on existing and potential suppliers, requiring them to demonstrate their own commitment to ethical practices. Our process includes asking suppliers to declare that they comply with anti-slavery laws and to provide information about their own suppliers if requested. Where risks are identified, we work collaboratively with our suppliers to address them, and we reserve the right to terminate contracts with any party found to be complicit in modern slavery.
Our employees play a vital role in maintaining the standards we set. Flowers Stanmore provides ongoing training to all staff on the signs of modern slavery and the steps to take if suspicions arise. Training is designed to raise awareness and empower our team to be vigilant, ensuring everyone understands the importance of creating a safe environment for workers not only within our business, but throughout our supply network.
Employees and external parties alike are encouraged to report any concerns related to modern slavery or unethical practices in our operations or supply chain. We provide clear, accessible channels for reporting concerns anonymously and without fear of retaliation. Every report is taken seriously and investigated promptly, with outcomes communicated to relevant parties where appropriate. This approach supports our culture of openness and responsibility.
Flowers Stanmore is committed to an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and our related practices. Through regular assessments, feedback from staff and suppliers, and monitoring industry developments, we look for opportunities to strengthen our preventive measures and address emerging risks. Improvements are integrated into our policy and processes to ensure our approach remains effective and robust.
As a longstanding florist in Stanmore, trusted by our local community, we take our ethical responsibilities seriously. We believe that our efforts to combat modern slavery reflect not only a legal obligation but also our integrity as a business serving Stanmore households and businesses. Upholding these standards forms a key part of the trust we build with every customer and partner.
