Haggerston Florist is dedicated to the highest standards of ethical conduct and integrity in all our practices. We operate a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking in any part of our business operations or supply chain. We are committed to ensuring that everyone, from our direct hires to external partners, operates in an environment free from exploitation, forced labour, or any form of modern slavery.
As a trusted florist serving local households and businesses, we recognise our responsibility to ensure that every aspect of our supply chain is free from modern slavery. We conduct careful due diligence checks on all new and existing suppliers, requiring them to confirm their own compliance with local and international anti-slavery legislation. Our procurement process includes questions about labour practices, working conditions, and compliance with our ethical code. Should any concerns arise, we will intervene immediately, and we retain the right to suspend or terminate business relationships with suppliers failing to meet our standards.
All staff members at Haggerston Florist receive training on recognising the signs of modern slavery and human trafficking. We regularly update and reinforce our policies through ongoing education, ensuring everyone understands their role in identifying and reporting any concerns. Our induction programme for new employees covers the importance of ethical conduct, our zero tolerance approach, and the mechanisms in place for raising issues safely and confidentially.
We actively encourage both employees and suppliers to report any suspicions or evidence of modern slavery or unethical behaviour. Multiple reporting channels exist within our organisation to guarantee that reports can be made confidentially and without fear of retaliation. Staff can raise concerns directly with their line manager, Human Resources, or via our anonymous reporting procedures. All reports are taken seriously, investigated fully, and acted upon swiftly in line with our disciplinary and grievance procedures.
This Modern Slavery Statement and our related policies are reviewed annually to ensure they remain effective and fit for purpose. We monitor changes in legislation and best practice, updating our documents, procedures, and training as needed. Our annual review process involves input from senior management, staff, and, where relevant, external advisors. This continuous improvement cycle is designed to strengthen our resolve and accountability in preventing modern slavery and supporting ethical best practices.
By upholding these commitments, Haggerston Florist reflects its responsibility as a trusted florist serving the households and businesses of Haggerston and surrounding communities. We believe everyone has the right to fair and dignified work, and we are determined to play our part in creating a transparent, respectful, and safe environment for all who contribute to our business. We remain committed to ongoing vigilance, action, and the highest standards of ethical conduct in all that we do.
