Florist Westminster is dedicated to acting with integrity and transparency in all aspects of our business. As a trusted florist serving the households and businesses of Westminster, we recognise our responsibility to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking within our operations and throughout our supply chains. Our commitment is underpinned by a policy of zero tolerance for all forms of modern slavery, including forced, bonded, or child labour.
Modern slavery is a serious violation of fundamental human rights, and Florist Westminster maintains a strict zero tolerance stance. We expect the same commitment from all employees, suppliers, and partners. Breaches of this policy will result in decisive action, which may include terminating contracts or reporting to regulatory authorities. We communicate this zero tolerance approach throughout our business to ensure there is no room for ambiguity.
Recognising that the supply chain is a critical area of risk, we conduct thorough due diligence when selecting suppliers and partners. This process includes:
Suppliers found in breach of anti-slavery principles will be required to remedy the issue or risk immediate termination of their business relationship with Florist Westminster.
We believe that the effectiveness of our anti-slavery measures depends on the awareness and commitment of our team. All staff receive training on recognising the signs of modern slavery and the importance of ethical practices. Training sessions are refreshed annually to keep our team informed about new risks and protection strategies. This education empowers our staff to play an active role in safeguarding our business from complicity in any form of human exploitation.
It is essential that any concerns about modern slavery can be raised without fear of reprisal. Florist Westminster encourages all employees, suppliers, and external parties to raise concerns or report suspicions via established internal channels. We assure all whistleblowers that reports will be taken seriously and handled confidentially, with appropriate action taken where necessary.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually by leadership to ensure that it remains effective and up to date with evolving legislation and best practice. We seek continual improvement through regular review of our policies, supplier checks, staff training, and reporting mechanisms. Feedback and insights from our stakeholders help refine our approach year on year.
Florist Westminster’s commitment to preventing modern slavery is an ongoing process and a reflection of our values as an established Westminster business. We take pride in contributing to a community where households and businesses can trust that our products and services are delivered ethically and responsibly.
