At Harold Hill Florist, we recognise our responsibility to act ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships. As a trusted florist serving Harold Hill households and businesses, we are committed to preventing modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation in our business operations and supply chains.
We have a strict zero tolerance policy regarding modern slavery and human trafficking. This approach extends to all aspects of our business and the suppliers we work with. We will not knowingly support or do business with any individual or organisation involved in these practices, and we expect the same high standards from all of our contractors, suppliers and business partners.
Our dedication to ethical sourcing is embedded within our procurement procedures. Before engaging with new suppliers, we assess their policies, procedures, and working conditions to ensure they abide by legal and ethical standards regarding labour and human rights. Regular reviews and checks of our existing supply chain help us to assess ongoing compliance. Where red flags are identified, we investigate thoroughly and reserve the right to terminate relationships with suppliers who fall short of our standards.
Harold Hill Florist is committed to equipping our team with the knowledge and awareness required to identify and respond to risks of modern slavery. All staff members, including new hires, receive guidance on recognising signs of exploitation and understanding our internal procedures for reporting suspicions or concerns. Our training also emphasises the wider impact of modern slavery on communities and businesses.
We foster a culture of openness and responsibility. Staff, suppliers, and local partners are encouraged to speak up about any concerns relating to modern slavery within our operations or supply chain. Measures are in place to ensure all disclosures are treated seriously and confidentially, without fear of retaliation. Reports can be shared in person or through confidential channels provided by management. All reports are investigated promptly and appropriate action is taken wherever necessary.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed every year by senior management. This review allows us to assess the effectiveness of our policies, adapt to emerging risks, and ensure our practices remain robust and relevant. We regularly consider feedback from staff, suppliers, and customers as part of this process, aiming for continuous improvement in our efforts to prevent forced labour and exploitation.
Serving households and businesses in Harold Hill means more than providing beautiful flowers – it requires upholding ethical values and protecting the welfare of everyone involved in delivering our services. We remain committed to playing our part in tackling modern slavery, ensuring our local community can trust in our integrity and our products.
