At Florist Holland Park, we recognize the vital importance of upholding human rights and maintaining ethical business practices throughout all aspects of our operations. As a highly trusted florist in the Holland Park area, providing services to local households and businesses, we are committed to maintaining a workplace and supply chain that is free from any form of modern slavery or human trafficking. Our zero tolerance approach applies to all aspects of our business and relationships.
Florist Holland Park maintains an absolute zero tolerance policy toward all forms of modern slavery, forced labour, and human trafficking. This commitment extends to our direct employees, agency workers, suppliers, and anyone involved in our floral supply chain. We set clear expectations with our suppliers and partners, ensuring they share our dedication to upholding the highest standards of ethical conduct and respect for human rights.
As an integral part of our commitment, we conduct robust due diligence on current and potential new suppliers. We assess their employment practices, working conditions, and compliance with all relevant anti-slavery and human trafficking legislation. Suppliers are regularly reviewed, and those unwilling to meet our ethical standards are not engaged. Wherever necessary, we seek further documentation or assurances from suppliers and reserve the right to audit or terminate relationships with those which fall short of our expectations regarding slavery and exploitation.
We believe that raising awareness and equipping our staff with the right knowledge is essential to preventing modern slavery. All employees at Florist Holland Park receive training tailored to recognizing, avoiding, and reporting any signs of modern slavery or exploitation, both in our premises and across our supply chain. Ongoing refresher sessions solidify our commitment and ensure that our team remains vigilant and informed on this crucial matter.
Florist Holland Park encourages employees, suppliers, and contractors to report any concerns regarding modern slavery or unethical behaviour. We provide accessible and confidential channels for raising suspicions or allegations, assuring full protection from retaliation or victimization. Each report is treated seriously and investigated promptly. We cooperate fully with authorities whenever required, placing the highest priority on remedying any identified shortcomings.
We recognize that the fight against modern slavery is ongoing. Our Modern Slavery Statement and all associated procedures are subject to review every year. This review considers guidance from relevant UK authorities, changes in law, feedback from the community, and insights from our own experience. We act swiftly to implement improvements that strengthen our controls, training, and supplier management initiatives.
As a trusted florist serving the Holland Park community’s households and businesses, we understand our responsibility not only to provide quality floral arrangements, but to do so ethically and transparently. Our Modern Slavery Statement reflects our ongoing commitment to ethical standards, respect for human dignity, and the trust placed in us by our valued clients and partners.
This statement is reviewed annually and represents our approach as of June 2024.
