At Flower Delivery Chingford, we recognise the profound responsibility we hold as a trusted florist serving local households and businesses in the Chingford area. As part of our social and ethical commitment, we have adopted a comprehensive stance against all forms of modern slavery, including forced labour, human trafficking, and child labour, both in our own operations and throughout our supply chain.
We operate under a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking. All individuals and organisations involved in, or associated with, our business are expected to uphold the highest standards of integrity and respect for human rights. This principle extends from the bouquets we create to the relationships we maintain across our entire supply chain. We make it unequivocally clear to our staff, suppliers, and business partners that any failure to meet these standards will result in immediate action, and could include termination of contracts or collaboration.
Our supply chain integrity is critical to our stance against modern slavery. We conduct rigorous due diligence when onboarding new suppliers and regularly review existing suppliers. This process involves the assessment of suppliers’ policies, practices, and history regarding modern slavery. Where appropriate, we request documented evidence and certifications to ensure adherence to ethical standards. By fostering transparent partnerships, we work collaboratively with our suppliers to maintain vigilance and proactively address any risks related to modern slavery within our network.
Empowering our team with knowledge is vital in the fight against modern slavery. We provide regular training to all employees to raise awareness of modern slavery issues, signs to look out for, and the appropriate steps to take if exploitation is suspected or identified. By ensuring our staff understand both the moral and legal implications, we foster a culture of alertness and responsibility at every level of our business. This includes relevant information for both our direct employees and contract workers, ensuring broad awareness across every area of operation.
We are committed to providing clear and confidential reporting channels for anyone with concerns regarding potential modern slavery practices. All employees, suppliers, and third-party partners can raise concerns in a safe environment without fear of retaliation. Reports are taken seriously and are thoroughly investigated, with appropriate actions carried out in response to any findings. We actively encourage openness, and support those who speak up about unethical conduct in our business or supply chain.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure it reflects both legislative changes and best practice guidance. Each year, we assess our policies, procedures, and their effectiveness, making improvements where necessary to enhance protection against modern slavery. This continuous improvement process underscores our ongoing commitment to ethical business conduct and social responsibility.
As a local Chingford florist, Flower Delivery Chingford upholds the trust placed in us by our community. We see our modern slavery policy as part of our ethical pledge to those who rely on us for life's special moments. Through vigilance, education, and accountability, we aim not only to comply with legal requirements, but also to set a standard in our industry and community for the eradication of modern slavery in all its forms.
