At Flower Delivery Westminster, we are fully committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships. As a trusted florist serving the Westminster community—supplying households and local businesses—we recognise our responsibility to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking within our own operations and throughout our supply chain. This statement outlines the steps we take to ensure no form of modern slavery or human trafficking takes place in any part of our business activities.
We have a zero tolerance policy for any abuse of human rights, including modern slavery, forced labour, and human trafficking. All staff, suppliers, and business partners are expected to share our commitment. Any violation of our policy is treated with utmost seriousness and may result in termination of contracts or employment, and, where appropriate, reporting to the relevant authorities.
As part of our commitment to ethical sourcing, we perform thorough due diligence on all suppliers. Prior to engaging with new suppliers and throughout our ongoing relationships, we assess their labour and human rights practices, requesting documentation and evidence where necessary. We make clear our expectations regarding the prohibition of forced, involuntary, or child labour. If any risk of slavery is identified, we work with suppliers to address and rectify issues. Continued non-compliance leads to the cessation of business relationships.
Our staff are vital in upholding our standards and ethical commitments. All employees receive training to understand the risks and signs of modern slavery and human trafficking. This equips them to detect and respond to any concerns internally or within our supply chain. Refresher training is provided regularly, ensuring our team stays alert and informed about potential risks associated with modern slavery.
We emphasise the importance of speaking up about any suspicion, concern, or evidence of modern slavery. Flower Delivery Westminster maintains confidential reporting channels, allowing staff and stakeholders to report potential breaches without fear of retaliation. All reports are treated seriously and investigated by management. Appropriate action is taken swiftly to address and rectify concerns, and we are committed to continuous improvement to eliminate the risk of modern slavery.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure its relevance and effectiveness. As part of our review process, we reflect on the effectiveness of our due diligence procedures, staff training, and reporting mechanisms. We also monitor legal and ethical developments to strengthen our approach. This allows us to adapt and refine our measures, ensuring Flower Delivery Westminster continually improves its response to the risks of modern slavery.
Being a local florist at the heart of Westminster, we understand the trust placed in us by families and businesses alike. By maintaining rigorous standards against modern slavery, we affirm our commitment to acting as a responsible, ethical business within our community. We remain dedicated to transparency, vigilance, and leading by example to shape a safe and fair environment for everyone involved in our operations.
