Flowers Harmondsworth stands firmly against all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking. As a trusted florist providing arrangements for Harmondsworth households and businesses, our responsibility goes beyond delivering quality products and services—it also encompasses upholding fundamental human rights within our own operations and our supply chain. We operate with a zero tolerance policy, ensuring that slavery and human trafficking have no place at Flowers Harmondsworth or in our business relationships.
Our commitment to ethical sourcing begins with a rigorous supplier due diligence process. We carefully evaluate new and existing suppliers to identify, assess, and address any potential risks of slavery and human trafficking. This includes seeking transparency regarding their employment practices, labor standards, and compliance with modern slavery legislation. We require all direct suppliers to acknowledge and uphold our values, and we periodically review supply chain partners to confirm continued adherence to our high standards.
We recognize that all staff have a responsibility in the fight against modern slavery. Flowers Harmondsworth provides regular training and awareness sessions to ensure our team members understand the signs of forced labor, human trafficking, and exploitative practices. By empowering our staff with knowledge, we can identify and address risks at every stage of our operations, from sourcing to final delivery. This training also reinforces the importance of speaking out when any form of modern slavery is suspected or observed.
We maintain clear and confidential channels allowing employees, suppliers, and stakeholders to report any concerns related to slavery or human trafficking. Employees are encouraged to raise issues without fear of retaliation, knowing that all reports will be taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. All reported incidents are handled in line with our whistleblowing policy, and prompt action is taken where necessary to safeguard those at risk.
Our modern slavery policy is subject to annual review by the Flowers Harmondsworth management team. This regular assessment ensures our strategies remain robust and responsive to new developments or heightened risks. We continually evaluate the effectiveness of our controls, supplier relationships, and staff training to strengthen our response to modern slavery. When opportunities for improvement are identified, we implement changes in a timely manner to enhance protection across our business and supply chain.
As a longstanding florist embedded in the Harmondsworth community, serving both households and local enterprises, we accept it is our duty to act with integrity and vigilance. The measures outlined in this statement reflect our determination to operate ethically and responsibly, safeguarding the rights and wellbeing of all those connected with Flowers Harmondsworth.
