Understanding the importance of responsible sourcing within the floral industry, our supplier due diligence process is designed to identify and mitigate risks related to modern slavery. We work predominantly with reputable suppliers who share our commitment to ethical labour practices. Where possible, we request evidence of their compliance with anti-slavery legislation and seek written assurances regarding their own supply chains.
Our supplier assessment includes periodic reviews to verify that our partners uphold their social and environmental obligations. Should concerns be raised about a supplier’s practices, we investigate thoroughly, and, where necessary, temporarily suspend orders until issues are resolved satisfactorily.
Building awareness among our team is fundamental to preventing exploitative practices. All staff at Florist Harrow on the Hill receive training to recognize signs of modern slavery and understand our company policies regarding ethical conduct. Training materials are reviewed and updated regularly to ensure all employees are informed about current risks and best practices for maintaining an ethical workplace.
We encourage all staff, customers, and suppliers to promptly report any concerns relating to possible modern slavery or unethical labour practices. Multiple channels are available for confidential reporting and we are committed to investigating all reports thoroughly and sensitively. Our whistleblowing procedures ensure that individuals can raise concerns without fear of retaliation or negative consequences.
Florist Harrow on the Hill is dedicated to continual improvement. We review this modern slavery statement annually to ensure its ongoing relevance and effectiveness, taking into account any changes in legislation and best practice guidance within the floral and retail industries. Updates are approved by senior management and communicated to all employees and our key suppliers.
