Florist Chase Cross is dedicated to providing exceptional floral services to households and businesses in the Chase Cross community. As a local business deeply intertwined with the people we serve, we recognise our responsibility to uphold the highest standards of ethical conduct. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines the measures we employ to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking within our operations and supply chains.
We adopt a zero tolerance approach towards modern slavery, forced labour, servitude, and human trafficking. Florist Chase Cross is fully committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings. There is absolutely no place in our organisation or supply chains for any form of exploitation or abuse.
We understand that most risks of modern slavery can occur within complex supply chains. It is a core part of our procurement process to conduct thorough due diligence when selecting and assessing our suppliers. We expect all suppliers to share our values and comply fully with relevant laws regarding slavery, trafficking, and the protection of workers' rights. Regular reviews and checks are carried out to ensure that suppliers meet our stringent ethical standards. Any supplier found to be in breach of these requirements may face termination of contracts and reporting to authorities as appropriate.
Florist Chase Cross ensures all employees are aware of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking, particularly those involved in procurement and supply chain management. Staff undergo training on recognising the signs of exploitation, understanding reporting procedures, and supporting our policy commitments. Training is updated periodically to reflect changes in legislation and best practice.
We have established clear and confidential reporting channels to empower our staff to raise concerns related to modern slavery, whether potential or actual. We actively encourage a culture of openness, and all reports are investigated thoroughly and acted upon in strict confidence. We uphold a non-retaliation principle, ensuring that no one raising concerns suffers any detriment as a result.
Florist Chase Cross is dedicated to maintaining and improving our approach to preventing modern slavery. This statement and our associated policies are reviewed every year to ensure their effectiveness and alignment with current best practice and regulatory requirements. Improvements are implemented where necessary as part of our ongoing commitment to ethical business operations.
As a trusted florist proudly serving Chase Cross's families, businesses, and organisations, our responsibility extends beyond beautiful flowers. We are resolute in protecting the rights and wellbeing of every individual who is touched by our activities, directly or indirectly. By upholding our modern slavery commitments, we help foster a community founded on respect, dignity, and social justice.
This Modern Slavery Statement has been approved by Florist Chase Cross senior management and forms part of our public accountability to customers, employees, and the wider community. It is regularly reviewed and updated in line with our ongoing commitment to the prevention of modern slavery in all its forms.
