At Flower Delivery Basildon, we are dedicated to upholding the highest standards of ethics and integrity in all areas of our operations. We recognise modern slavery and human trafficking as grave violations of fundamental human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines our ongoing efforts to prevent such practices from occurring within our business and supply chains, reflecting our responsibility as a trusted Basildon florist serving local households and businesses.
We operate a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child labour. Our commitment extends to everyone associated with our operations, from employees and contractors to suppliers and partners. No form of modern slavery will ever be tolerated in any part of our organisation or its related activities.
As a responsible business, Flower Delivery Basildon expects the highest ethical standards from all our suppliers and service providers. We undertake a thorough due diligence process when onboarding new suppliers, requiring them to confirm compliance with all relevant laws and regulations regarding labour practices. We regularly review supplier employment processes, conduct risk assessments, and maintain ongoing dialogue to ensure our expectations for ethical sourcing are clearly understood and met. If any supplier is found to be breaching our standards or the law, immediate remedial action is required or contracts will be terminated.
We believe training is crucial in the fight against modern slavery. All staff, including management and front-line team members, receive regular training to understand the signs of exploitation and the steps to take if they suspect wrongdoing. This proactive approach ensures our team is always vigilant, informed, and empowered to uphold our zero tolerance stance.
Flower Delivery Basildon is committed to transparency and accountability. We provide clear and accessible channels for staff, suppliers, and the wider community to raise concerns or report suspected cases of modern slavery or exploitation in a confidential environment. Reports are treated with the utmost seriousness and will trigger a swift, thorough investigation by designated personnel. We actively support a culture in which people feel safe to speak out without fear of reprisal.
To remain effective, our approach to preventing modern slavery must adapt to changing risks and challenges. We subject this statement and all associated policies to an annual review, taking into account legislative updates, best practice guidance, and feedback from stakeholders. Progress and findings form the basis for further strengthening our measures year on year.
We understand that the trust of our customers – both households and businesses throughout Basildon – depends on our ethical conduct. Upholding the fight against modern slavery is central to our values as a local business. Through dedication, vigilance, and partnership with our staff and suppliers, Flower Delivery Basildon is committed to safeguarding human rights across our entire supply chain. We thank our team, customers, and partners for sharing in this responsibility.
