Florist Leyton is committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in all aspects of our business operations. We recognize our responsibility as a trusted florist serving households and businesses in Leyton to address the potential risks of modern slavery and human trafficking. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines the steps we take to prevent, identify, and address any risks of modern slavery within our supply chains and business activities.
Florist Leyton operates a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking, forced and bonded labour, and child exploitation in any form. We do not tolerate, either directly or indirectly, any activities that compromise individuals' freedom, safety, or dignity. All management, staff, and suppliers are expected to adhere to this clear ethical standard.
We depend on a network of suppliers to source our flowers, packaging, and associated products. To ensure ethical practices, Florist Leyton undertakes robust due diligence of all new and existing suppliers. This includes understanding their recruitment practices, workplace policies, and monitoring their commitment to fair labour standards. We require suppliers to confirm their own compliance with modern slavery legislation through written assurances and periodic assessments. Where any concerns arise regarding a supplier's practices, we work collaboratively to resolve them or, if necessary, terminate the relationship.
We recognise that vigilance at every level is essential in combating modern slavery. All members of our team, from florists to delivery drivers, receive regular training on the risks and signs of modern slavery and human trafficking within the supply chain and the workplace. Training covers how to identify potential indicators and the procedures for escalating concerns. Through this, we empower our staff to act responsibly in support of victims and the wider community.
Florist Leyton fosters a transparent and supportive environment where employees and suppliers feel able to raise concerns without fear of retaliation. We have established clear reporting channels for any suspicions or evidence of modern slavery, which ensures all information is treated with the utmost seriousness and confidentiality. All cases are investigated thoroughly, and where appropriate, we report findings to relevant authorities and take decisive action to remedy the situation.
To ensure our policies and practices remain effective, Florist Leyton conducts an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and the associated procedures. We assess changing risks, update practices in line with current legislation, and reinforce our commitments with staff and suppliers. Our goal is to drive continuous improvement in our fight against modern slavery throughout our operations and supply chains.
As a locally trusted florist, Florist Leyton is dedicated not only to providing the highest quality floral services but also to ensuring our business contributes positively to the Leyton community. We hope that by acting transparently and ethically, we can inspire trust among our customers, staff, and partners and play our part in eliminating modern slavery from our industry.
