Tooting Bec Florist is deeply committed to conducting all aspects of our business with integrity and respect for human rights. We have a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking in any form within our operations and supply chains. This includes all forms of forced labour, child labour, and exploitation. Our values are rooted in treating every individual with dignity and fairness, reflecting our position as a trusted Tooting Bec florist serving local households and businesses.
We recognise that the greatest risk of modern slavery often exists within complex supply chains. As such, Tooting Bec Florist undertakes thorough due diligence on all our suppliers and business partners. Before entering into agreements, we assess their operations and insist upon transparency regarding their labour practices and sourcing policies. We expect all our suppliers to comply with relevant laws and internationally recognised standards that prohibit slavery, servitude, child labour, and forced labour. Periodically, we review supplier compliance and require assurances that their own suppliers also uphold these principles.
To ensure our team remains vigilant to the risks of modern slavery, we provide regular training to all staff members, both permanent and seasonal. This training covers how to identify potential signs of slavery and human trafficking, the importance of ethical sourcing, and our internal procedures for escalating concerns. We believe that an informed and responsible workforce is fundamental to upholding our zero tolerance policy and maintaining the trust of the Tooting Bec community.
Tooting Bec Florist fosters a workplace culture where individuals feel empowered to raise concerns about unethical or illegal behaviour without fear of reprisal. We have clear reporting channels for staff, suppliers, and members of the public to report any suspicions or incidents of modern slavery or related abuse. All reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly, and appropriate action is taken in line with our policies. Confidentiality is respected to protect those making disclosures in good faith.
This Modern Slavery Statement is subject to annual review and approval by the senior management at Tooting Bec Florist. We periodically assess the effectiveness of our policies, supplier assessments, and staff training in preventing slavery and exploitation. Lessons learned from reviews, reported concerns, and best practice developments inform ongoing improvements to our approach. Our commitment to combating modern slavery remains steadfast as we continue serving the people and businesses of Tooting Bec with integrity and transparency.
As a florist deeply rooted in the Tooting Bec community, we recognise our responsibility extends beyond the quality of our flowers. By actively opposing modern slavery, we seek to build lasting relationships based on trust and respect with our customers, suppliers, and the wider public. Upholding these standards is integral to who we are and the way we do business.
