Flowers Pinner is committed to upholding the highest standards of ethical conduct throughout all aspects of our business. As a trusted florist serving households and businesses in the Pinner area, we recognise both our moral and legal responsibility to combat modern slavery and human trafficking in all its forms. This statement outlines the steps we take annually to ensure our business and supply chains remain free from these injustices.
At Flowers Pinner, we operate a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking. This means we will not knowingly engage with or support any company, supplier, or individual that participates in any form of forced labour, servitude, or exploitation. Our commitment is embedded in our core values and is non-negotiable across all levels of our business operations.
We understand that the nature of our business requires sourcing products and materials from various suppliers. To that end, we conduct thorough due diligence before establishing or maintaining supplier relationships. This involves requiring suppliers to certify their compliance with relevant anti-slavery and anti-trafficking laws, and to demonstrate their own zero-tolerance policies. We routinely review suppliers and, where possible, request documentation demonstrating ethical labour practices within their operations and supply chains. If a supplier does not meet our standards, we take prompt and decisive action, which may include terminating the business relationship.
All staff at Flowers Pinner are trained in recognising the signs of modern slavery and understanding their role in maintaining an ethical workplace. Training is provided as part of our induction process and is refreshed on a regular basis to ensure ongoing awareness. This equips our team members with the knowledge they need to identify potential risks, whether within our direct operations or in our interactions with suppliers.
Flowers Pinner encourages a culture of openness and accountability. Staff and external stakeholders are actively encouraged to raise concerns regarding potential instances of modern slavery or unethical practices, without fear of retaliation. We have designated internal channels for confidential reporting, ensuring that all disclosures are thoroughly investigated and acted upon. Where necessary, we will collaborate with relevant authorities to ensure that all reported incidents are resolved appropriately and in accordance with the law.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually by senior management to ensure it remains effective and reflective of best practices. Updates are made to accommodate any changes in legislation, our business processes, or our supply chains. This continuous improvement cycle demonstrates our unwavering commitment to upholding the rights and dignity of all individuals associated with our business.
As a long-standing florist in Pinner, trusted by local households and businesses, we understand the importance of transparency and ethics in all we do. Our efforts to prevent modern slavery are a fundamental part of our broader responsibility to serve our community with integrity and respect for human rights. We will continue to champion ethical business practices, not only for our customers’ peace of mind, but for the betterment of the wider industry and society at large.
