At Florists Brompton, we firmly believe that modern slavery, in any form, is unacceptable and has no place in our business or supply chains. Upholding the highest ethical standards is integral to our identity as a trusted florist serving Brompton's households and local businesses. We have a zero tolerance policy towards all forms of modern slavery, including forced labour, human trafficking, child labour, and exploitation. This statement outlines the steps we take to prevent slavery and human trafficking within our operations and those of our suppliers.
We recognise the importance of working only with suppliers who share our values and commitment to human rights. Florists Brompton maintains robust supplier due diligence procedures, which include evaluating the risks of modern slavery in our supply chains. We assess all new and existing suppliers for their compliance with relevant legislation and ethical standards. Where appropriate, we request written confirmations of their own anti-slavery policies and practices. Any supplier found to be in breach of our requirements will face appropriate action, including the potential termination of our relationship.
Empowering our team is crucial in our fight against modern slavery. We provide regular training to all staff to ensure they understand what modern slavery is, how to identify potential signs, and the importance of reporting concerns. Training includes guidance on our internal reporting channels and our zero tolerance policy. By increasing awareness and education among our staff, we ensure that every team member recognises their responsibility and is equipped to uphold our values in everyday activities and supplier interactions.
Florists Brompton has established clear and accessible channels for reporting any suspected cases of modern slavery, whether within our business or our supply chain. Staff, suppliers, and external partners are encouraged to speak up about any concerns, with reassurance of protection against retaliation under our whistleblowing policy. All reports are treated seriously, promptly investigated, and addressed in accordance with our disciplinary and remediation procedures. We foster a culture of transparency and trust, where concerns can be raised without fear.
We are committed to the ongoing enhancement of our policies and practices around modern slavery prevention. Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure its effectiveness and relevance in a changing global context. Each review involves evaluating our processes, updating staff training, and seeking ways to strengthen our supplier due diligence. Feedback from staff, suppliers, and stakeholders is actively encouraged and incorporated into our continuous improvement processes.
Upholding human rights is at the heart of our work, ensuring that every bouquet delivered and every business relationship reflects our values as a responsible and ethical business. This Modern Slavery Statement underlines our unwavering commitment to combatting exploitation and promoting integrity throughout everything we do. As a cornerstone of the Brompton community, serving homes and local business alike, we pledge to maintain these values and lead by example in the florist industry.
