At Flower Delivery Brentwood, we recognise the crucial role we play in safeguarding ethical standards within our business and throughout our supply chains. Serving the Brentwood community, we are trusted by households and local businesses alike as their preferred florist. We understand that with this trust comes a deep responsibility to uphold the highest standards of integrity, including a firm stance against modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms.
We operate a zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking. This applies to all aspects of our business, including suppliers, contractors, and partners. Any evidence of slavery, forced labour, servitude, or human trafficking within our operations or supply chain results in immediate, decisive action. We are committed to acting with integrity and fairness, and expect the same of every party with whom we interact.
We take rigorous steps to ensure our values are shared by all suppliers. As part of our due diligence process, we assess new and existing suppliers for risks associated with modern slavery. This includes evaluating their policies, procedures, and workforce practices. We require our suppliers to confirm their compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and demonstrate the steps they take to prevent unethical practices within their own operations and supply chains. If necessary, we reserve the right to conduct site visits or request documentation to further verify their compliance.
Our staff, both in store and in operations, undergo regular training to recognise the signs of modern slavery and understand proper reporting procedures. This training is part of our broader commitment to employee awareness, ensuring everyone who represents Flower Delivery Brentwood is equipped to uphold our standards and respond appropriately. We promote an atmosphere where questions and vigilance are encouraged, and concerns can always be raised without fear.
We provide clear channels for employees and suppliers to confidentially report any suspicions or knowledge regarding modern slavery or unethical practices. These concerns are investigated promptly and thoroughly by appropriate management. All reports are treated seriously and impartially. We do not tolerate retaliation against any individual who raises genuine concerns in good faith, ensuring our team and business partners are protected when acting to uphold our ethical standards.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure relevance, effectiveness, and ongoing compliance with legal obligations and best practice. Through each review, we update our approach as required, drawing on emerging guidelines, industry developments, and stakeholder feedback. Our commitment is to remain vigilant and responsive as the landscape evolves, strengthening our safeguards year after year.
As a responsible florist deeply engaged with the Brentwood community, our dedication to preventing modern slavery is central to our identity and operations. By enforcing robust policies, diligent supplier oversight, well-informed staff, and open channels for raising concerns, we uphold our responsibility to our clients and community. Flower Delivery Brentwood will continue to champion ethical standards in everything we do, delivering peace of mind alongside our floral arrangements.
