At Florist Haggerston, we are deeply committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all areas of our business. As a florist serving the households and businesses of Haggerston, we recognize the important role we play in promoting human rights and preventing exploitation. We have a zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking, whether in our own operations or in any part of our supply chain.
We do not tolerate any form of slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour, or human trafficking. This principle is embedded in the values at the heart of everything we do. We expect the same high standards from all our suppliers, partners, and contractors, and require them to operate in compliance with all applicable laws against modern slavery.
Our supply chain is vital to our business and our reputation as a trusted local florist. We conduct careful due diligence before entering into agreements with any new supplier. This involves assessing risks associated with potential suppliers, requesting information and documentation on their own labour practices, and ensuring that their operations align with our commitment to ethical conduct. For existing suppliers, we maintain an ongoing dialogue, monitor performance, and investigate any concerns promptly and thoroughly.
Our team members are provided with regular training to raise awareness of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking. Training includes guidance on how to recognize signs of exploitation and how to act on any suspicions. By empowering our staff with the knowledge and skills to identify and report concerns, we strengthen our ability to support ethical practices both within Florist Haggerston and throughout our supply chain.
We actively promote an open culture, encouraging anyone associated with Florist Haggerston—including employees, suppliers, and customers—to raise concerns regarding any possible breaches of our policies or suspected cases of modern slavery. Concerns can be raised confidentially by speaking to a manager in-store or contacting our designated safeguarding team for review. Every concern will be taken seriously, investigated fully, and acted upon in accordance with our established procedures.
We commit to reviewing and updating this Modern Slavery Statement each year to ensure it remains relevant and effective. The annual review will reflect changes in legislation, best practice, and feedback received from staff and stakeholders. We will also monitor the effectiveness of our practices and adapt them as necessary to meet evolving risks.
This statement represents not only our legal and ethical obligations, but also our responsibility as a trusted florist in Haggerston. As part of the local community, serving both households and businesses, Florist Haggerston prioritizes the wellbeing of people at every stage of our activities. We remain steadfast in our resolve to prevent modern slavery and promote respect for the rights and dignity of every individual connected to our operations.
