Flowers Holloway is deeply committed to ensuring that modern slavery and human trafficking have no place in our business or in our supply chains. As a trusted Holloway florist serving households and businesses in our local community, we recognise our responsibility to uphold the highest standards of ethical conduct. This statement outlines our approach, policies, and processes to prevent modern slavery in accordance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and our broader ethical obligations.
We have a strict zero tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking. This applies to our own operations and extends to all individuals and companies who supply goods or services to us. Our policy is communicated to all relevant staff, suppliers, and contractors, making clear that any involvement in modern slavery is completely unacceptable and will result in decisive action, including the termination of contracts where necessary.
Recognising that risks can manifest anywhere in a supply chain, we carry out thorough due diligence checks with all prospective and existing suppliers. This involves assessing their policies, procedures, and past records regarding labour rights and ethical standards. We expect our suppliers to uphold the same commitments and to provide transparent information about their own supply chains and workforce management. We only partner with suppliers who can demonstrate that they operate fair and safe working conditions consistent with our values.
To ensure that our commitment to eradicating modern slavery is reflected in daily practice, we provide regular training for our staff. This includes education about the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking, how to identify potential signs, and the responsibilities that each team member holds. Through training, we aim to create a culture of vigilance and shared responsibility within Flowers Holloway.
Flowers Holloway encourages all staff, suppliers, and customers to report any concerns regarding modern slavery. We have established clear, confidential internal channels for reporting suspected cases or unethical practices. All reports are taken seriously and investigated promptly in line with our commitment to transparency and accountability. We assure every member of our team that they will not suffer any negative consequences for raising genuine concerns in good faith.
We review this statement and our broader approach to modern slavery on an annual basis, or sooner if there are significant changes in our business or regulatory environment. This annual review process includes evaluating the effectiveness of our policies, monitoring supplier compliance, and assessing risk within our operations and supply chains. We are committed to improving our practices continuously, guided by legal requirements and the evolving expectations of our community.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is a reflection of our ongoing commitment to ethical business and social responsibility as a respected member of the Holloway community. By maintaining rigorous standards, conducting due diligence, offering staff training, and providing channels for reporting, we strive to safeguard the rights and wellbeing of everyone connected to our business. Flowers Holloway remains dedicated to providing beautiful floral arrangements while ensuring that our operations and supply chains remain free from exploitation and abuse.
