As a trusted local florist at Holborn, serving households and businesses throughout our community, Holborn Florist recognises its responsibility to uphold the highest standards of ethics, transparency, and integrity. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the actions Holborn Florist has taken and continues to take to mitigate the risk of modern slavery and human trafficking occurring within our business and supply chains.
Holborn Florist maintains a zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery in all its forms. We do not tolerate forced labour, human trafficking, child labour, or any practices that compromise the freedom and dignity of individuals. Our culture is built upon respect and fairness, and we expect the same high standards from our suppliers, business partners, and all individuals who work with us.
We recognise that our supply chain plays a crucial role in helping us uphold our values. Holborn Florist conducts thorough due diligence on suppliers before establishing business relationships, including assessing their own modern slavery and labour standards policies.
We require suppliers to abide by our Supplier Code of Conduct, which sets out clear expectations regarding ethical practices, fair wages, and working conditions in accordance with international labour standards. Periodic reviews and risk assessments of suppliers are undertaken, and if concerns arise, we take immediate steps to investigate and remediate the situation. Suppliers found to be in breach of our standards may have their contracts terminated.
Training and awareness are at the heart of our approach to preventing modern slavery. All staff receive induction training covering the risks, indicators, and impacts of modern slavery, as well as their roles and responsibilities in preventing it. Ongoing refresher courses and updates are provided to ensure that our team stays vigilant and informed about global best practices and any changes in legislation.
Holborn Florist encourages all staff, suppliers, and partners to report any concerns related to modern slavery or unethical behaviour. We strive to foster an environment where individuals feel comfortable coming forward in full confidence. Internal channels for raising concerns are clearly communicated and accessible, and we guarantee that every report will be treated seriously and confidentially, with no risk of recrimination or victimisation.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure its ongoing effectiveness and alignment with legal requirements and industry best practices. As part of our continuous improvement efforts, we regularly evaluate the efficacy of our policies, staff training, supplier due diligence, and reporting mechanisms.
We are committed to keeping our approach dynamic and responsive to developing risks and will update stakeholders on significant changes or enhancements to our processes.
Holborn Florist believes that actively addressing the risk of modern slavery is fundamental to the trust that our community places in us. As a proud Holborn florist serving local households and businesses, we will continue to promote ethical standards that protect the rights and well-being of every individual touched by our operations.
