South Wimbledon Florist is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of ethical conduct in everything we do. As a trusted South Wimbledon florist serving both local households and businesses, we recognise our responsibility to ensure that modern slavery, human trafficking, and all forms of forced labour have no place in our operations or supply chains.
We operate a robust zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking. This applies to everyone working for us and on our behalf, including employees, contractors, and suppliers. We are committed to acting with integrity and transparency in all our business dealings and relationships.
Recognising the complexity of global supply chains, we take a careful and proactive approach to supplier management. Prior to engaging with new suppliers or renewing contracts, we carry out due diligence checks to identify and evaluate risks associated with modern slavery. These checks consider the country of origin, supplier practices, and evidence of legal compliance. We require suppliers to adhere to our standards and expect them to ensure their own supply chains are free from slavery and human trafficking. If a supplier fails to meet our standards or shows any evidence of unethical practices, we will take immediate steps to address the issue, up to and including the termination of our business relationship.
All staff at South Wimbledon Florist receive training to understand the risks of modern slavery in our business and supply chains. This training covers recognising potential indicators of modern slavery, understanding their responsibilities, and knowing how to escalate any concerns or suspicions. We foster an open and supportive environment where staff feel empowered to voice concerns without fear of reprisal.
We recognise the importance of accessible and effective reporting mechanisms. Anyone connected with our florist, whether staff, suppliers, or customers, is encouraged to report any suspicion or evidence of modern slavery. Internal reporting channels are available to all staff members. All reports are taken seriously and investigated promptly and confidentially. Should evidence of slavery or human trafficking ever be discovered, we are committed to taking swift and decisive action in accordance with our zero tolerance policy and applicable laws.
Our Modern Slavery Statement and the policies supporting it undergo an annual review to ensure their ongoing adequacy and effectiveness. This review incorporates feedback from staff, developments in best practices, and any findings from our risk assessment procedures. We are committed to identifying areas for improvement and strengthening our approach year on year to uphold our responsibilities.
We are proud to serve South Wimbledon’s households and businesses and believe that our reputation as a responsible local florist is underpinned by our ethical practices. This statement is a reflection of our ongoing responsibility to our community, ensuring that everyone connected to South Wimbledon Florist can trust in our commitment to fairness, integrity, and humanity at every stage of our operations.
