At New Barnet Florist, we are committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in every aspect of our business. As a trusted provider of floral arrangements to households and businesses in New Barnet, we understand our responsibility to act with integrity and care for the people and communities we serve. We recognise that modern slavery and human trafficking are grave global issues, and we are dedicated to preventing such practices within our own operations and those of our supply chain.
New Barnet Florist has a clear zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and all forms of exploitation. We are committed to promoting a culture that rejects any activity or behaviour which facilitates or condones such abuses. Our business will not knowingly engage with any individual or organisation involved, directly or indirectly, in modern slavery or human trafficking.
We recognise that our supply chain is a critical element in our fight against modern slavery. New Barnet Florist employs a rigorous supplier selection and evaluation process. We require all suppliers to confirm their adherence to anti-slavery legislation and our own ethical sourcing standards. Periodic reviews and risk assessments are conducted to identify and address potential areas of concern. Should any supplier be found in breach of our standards, we reserve the right to terminate the relationship immediately.
Staff awareness is essential in preventing and identifying instances of modern slavery. All team members at New Barnet Florist receive regular training to understand the signs of modern slavery and the importance of ethical practices in the workplace. We ensure that our employees are fully informed of their rights, and are encouraged to ask questions and seek guidance any time they are unsure about a situation.
New Barnet Florist encourages open communication and proactive reporting of any concerns relating to potential or suspected instances of modern slavery. All staff, suppliers, and other stakeholders are provided with clear guidance on how to confidentially raise issues or suspicions. We ensure that concerns are properly investigated and addressed, and guarantee that anyone raising a concern in good faith will not be penalised in any way.
Our approach to tackling modern slavery is reviewed annually to ensure that our measures remain robust, relevant, and effective. We evaluate our performance, consider feedback from staff and suppliers, and update our procedures and training as necessary. The results of our evaluation, along with improvements and future action plans, are documented each year.
As a respected member of the New Barnet community, serving both local households and businesses, we are committed to operating with transparency and social responsibility. Our modern slavery statement reflects the trust our clients place in us and our determination to maintain a safe, fair, and ethical workplace and supply chain.
