At Flower Delivery Barnes, we recognise our responsibility to operate ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships. As a trusted florist serving the households and businesses of Barnes, we are dedicated to ensuring that modern slavery and human trafficking have no place within our supply chains or our operations. This statement outlines the measures we take to prevent such practices and reflects our commitment to upholding human rights throughout our business.
We have a strict zero tolerance policy toward modern slavery and human trafficking. Flower Delivery Barnes is resolutely opposed to any form of forced labour, servitude, child labour, or the exploitation of vulnerable individuals. This applies to all aspects of our business, including our direct operations and wider supply chains. All employees, suppliers, and contractors are expected to share these values, and any violation is considered grounds for immediate review and corrective action, including potential termination of business relationships.
Flower Delivery Barnes sources flowers, packaging, and ancillary products from a range of suppliers. We conduct thorough due diligence prior to engaging with any new supplier, ensuring that they adhere to ethical labour practices and demonstrate transparency in their own supply chains. Our ongoing review process includes risk assessments, contrasting supplier policies with our own standards, and requesting evidence of compliance where appropriate. We are committed to only partnering with suppliers who uphold the same high standards regarding human rights and fair working conditions.
We believe that empowering our team is crucial in the prevention of modern slavery. All staff members, from shop floor florists to management, receive regular training to raise awareness of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking. This training covers the key signs of exploitation, the company policies in place, and the responsibilities of all employees to be vigilant and proactive. By equipping our team with the right knowledge, we foster an environment where any concerns can be promptly recognised and addressed.
Flower Delivery Barnes maintains clear and accessible channels for reporting any suspicions of modern slavery or unethical practices. All employees are encouraged and supported to come forward with concerns, assured that reports will be treated confidentially and without fear of retaliation. Management investigates all reports swiftly and thoroughly, taking proportionate action where necessary. We are committed to transparency and continual improvement, welcoming feedback from our team and external stakeholders alike.
This Modern Slavery Statement is subject to annual review to ensure its continued relevance and effectiveness. We regularly assess our policies, supplier relationships, and staff training programmes in light of new risks and regulatory developments. Through this process, Flower Delivery Barnes remains vigilant and proactive in tackling modern slavery. We remain dedicated to evolving our practices so that we continue to meet our responsibilities as a reputable and trustworthy florist within the Barnes community.
We understand that our position in the Barnes community comes with the responsibility to set a positive example for ethical business conduct. By adopting robust measures against modern slavery, we aim to build trust with our customers, suppliers, and partners, reinforcing our commitment to operating responsibly and respectfully. Flower Delivery Barnes is devoted to upholding human dignity in every bouquet we create and every business practice we undertake.
