At Flower DeliveryAddlestone, we are unwavering in our commitment to upholding human rights and preventing any form of modern slavery or human trafficking within our operations and supply chains. As a trusted florist serving homes and businesses throughout Addlestone, we recognize our social responsibility in maintaining high standards of ethics and transparency.
Modern slavery in all its forms—including servitude, forced labour, child labour, human trafficking, and exploitation—is strictly prohibited at Flower DeliveryAddlestone. We have a zero tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery, whether direct or indirect. All staff, suppliers, and business partners are expected to share our values and comply fully with applicable legislation, including the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
We appreciate that our supply chain spans multiple organisations and geographies, and this brings an increased risk of exposure to unethical practices. Through a rigorous supplier selection and assessment process, we vet all new and existing suppliers to ensure they uphold the same high ethical standards as Flower DeliveryAddlestone. Our due diligence includes requesting modern slavery statements, reviewing policies, conducting risk assessments where appropriate, and obtaining contractual affirmations of compliance with anti-slavery laws. We seek to establish relationships only with suppliers who can demonstrate their commitment to eradicating modern slavery.
Flower DeliveryAddlestone provides regular training to all staff, especially those involved in procurement, supplier engagement, and recruitment. This training covers recognising the signs of modern slavery and understanding the steps required to report any suspicions. We encourage a culture of openness and vigilance, ensuring employees are aware of the serious consequences of modern slavery and their role in preventing it within our business and supply chains.
We are committed to providing safe and confidential reporting routes for anyone wishing to raise a concern, whether it relates to our organisation or our suppliers. Staff can report any suspicions or evidence of modern slavery without fear of retaliation or discrimination. All concerns are investigated promptly and thoroughly, and where appropriate, we take action in accordance with our disciplinary procedures and legal obligations. We likewise encourage suppliers, contractors, and members of the public to share any information about unethical practices they become aware of.
The Board of Directors at Flower DeliveryAddlestone reviews this Modern Slavery Statement annually to ensure its effectiveness and relevance. We assess our practices, update our policies, and refine our supplier processes to reflect new risks, changes in legislation, and best practice developments. This statement is also communicated throughout the company and made available to customers and stakeholders, demonstrating our transparency and dedication to social responsibility.
As a leading flower delivery service to Addlestone’s households and businesses, we recognise the broader impact of our actions. Ensuring that our flowers and products are sourced and delivered free from exploitation is fundamental to the trust our customers place in us. By implementing and continually strengthening our approach to modern slavery prevention, Flower DeliveryAddlestone aims to set a positive example for ethical floristry in our local community.
