As a responsible local florist, Flower Delivery Woodford is dedicated to upholding the values of fairness, transparency, and ethical practice in every aspect of our business. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines the steps we take to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking within our organisation and throughout our supply chain. Our firm commitment reflects our responsibility as a trusted florist serving households and businesses across Woodford.
Flower Delivery Woodford has a zero tolerance policy towards all forms of modern slavery, including forced labour, child labour, and human trafficking. We fully support the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships.
We expect the same high standards from all of our contractors, suppliers, and business partners. Any evidence of modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chain will result in the immediate termination of our business relationship with the offending party.
We recognise that the most significant risks of modern slavery in the flower trade exist within supply chains. Therefore, we carry out robust due diligence procedures when selecting and evaluating suppliers. This includes assessing their policies, working conditions, and ability to meet our ethical standards.
Our due diligence reviews cover:
We prioritise relationships with suppliers who share our commitment to ethical sourcing and transparency, and we engage in ongoing dialogues to ensure continued compliance and improvement.
All our staff receive training and guidance on recognising the signs of modern slavery and understanding their obligations under our policy. This training is integrated into our induction process and refreshed annually to keep staff up-to-date with evolving best practices and legislation.
By informing our team, we empower them to act should they suspect any wrongdoing, and we foster a workplace culture where the rights and safety of all individuals are respected.
We encourage staff, customers, and suppliers to speak up if they have any concerns about possible instances of modern slavery or unethical conduct in our business or supply chain. All reports are treated with confidentiality and are fully investigated with utmost seriousness.
Flower Delivery Woodford ensures there are accessible and clear channels for raising concerns, so that anyone can report suspected incidents without fear of retaliation. Appropriate action will always be taken where issues are identified, with a focus on remediation and prevention.
Our commitment to combating modern slavery is an ongoing process. This statement and our internal processes are reviewed annually to ensure their effectiveness and relevance in light of new developments, legislation, and feedback from staff and partners.
As a prominent florist in the Woodford community, we see it as our duty to lead by example and remain vigilant in our efforts to protect human rights and dignity throughout our operations.
Flower Delivery Woodford is proud to champion ethical business practices as an integral part of our role within the local community. We believe that sustained vigilance, collaboration, and openness are all vital in eliminating modern slavery from our sector and upholding our values as a responsible Woodford florist. This statement reflects the standards that our customers and partners expect from us, and that we hold ourselves accountable to every day.
