As a leading florist serving the Bethnal Green community, Flowers Bethnal Green is committed to conducting business responsibly and transparently. We fully recognise our obligation to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in all aspects of our operations and supply chains. As a trusted provider to local households and businesses, we take this responsibility seriously and strive to uphold the highest ethical standards at every level of our business.
We have a strict zero tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking. At Flowers Bethnal Green, we are unwavering in our commitment to ensuring that our workplace, supply chains, and service partners operate ethically and in compliance with the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015. This commitment influences every decision we make and is integrated into our company’s values and culture.
We understand that preventing modern slavery requires vigilance not only within our own operations but also throughout our supplier network. All new and existing suppliers are subject to rigorous due diligence processes. This includes detailed questionnaires about their own anti-slavery procedures, risk assessments, and, where necessary, requests for supporting documentation and evidence of compliance. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate relationships with suppliers who fail to meet our ethical requirements or demonstrate transparency in their employment practices.
Education is an essential component of our approach to eradicating modern slavery. Our staff receive training to increase awareness of modern slavery risks and to recognise potential warning signs, such as signs of forced labour or unethical working conditions, in our own workplace and among our business partners. This training is reviewed and refreshed annually to ensure continuing vigilance and knowledge within our team.
We foster a culture where staff, suppliers, and collaborators feel safe and supported to raise any concerns related to modern slavery. Clear internal channels are available for confidential reporting of suspicions or incidents. Every concern raised is treated seriously, promptly investigated, and responded to in accordance with our disciplinary and grievance procedures. We also encourage the use of independent advisory bodies where appropriate, to ensure transparency and fairness in all investigations.
Our policies and practices regarding modern slavery are subject to ongoing review and improvement. At least once a year, our management team undertakes a comprehensive evaluation of this statement, internal procedures, staff training modules, and the outcome of any investigations or concerns raised. This allows us to identify areas for strengthening our controls and to adapt to evolving risks within the sector. Any significant findings or required changes are incorporated into our operational standards without delay.
Flowers Bethnal Green is proud to play a central role in the Bethnal Green area, providing floral arrangements for local homes and businesses. Our dedication to combating modern slavery underpins the trust placed in us by our community. We understand that by acting ethically and transparently, we help foster a safer and fairer business environment not only for our staff and customers but for everyone connected to our business.
This statement is reviewed and updated annually to ensure continued relevance and effectiveness. It represents more than a legal requirement—it is a reflection of our values as a responsible, trusted Bethnal Green florist.
