Paddington Florist is dedicated to upholding the highest ethical standards within our operations and supply chains. We have a strict zero tolerance policy for modern slavery and human trafficking in any part of our business. Our commitment reflects our responsibility to the community as a trusted Paddington florist serving local households and businesses. We recognise the importance of playing our part in eradicating modern slavery by taking proactive steps to ensure our business and extended supply chains are free from exploitation.
We understand that the greatest risks of modern slavery often exist within supply chains. As such, Paddington Florist undertakes thorough due diligence processes before engaging with any new suppliers and reviews existing supplier relationships on an ongoing basis. Our assessment includes evaluating suppliers’ labour practices, ethical standards, and compliance with all relevant laws and regulations. We require all our suppliers to confirm their commitment to combat modern slavery and demonstrate evidence of ethical sourcing and fair treatment of workers.
All team members at Paddington Florist receive training to understand the risks and signs of modern slavery and human trafficking. This includes guidance on responsible sourcing, recognising potential indicators of exploitation, and clear procedures for escalating any concerns. By equipping our staff with the necessary knowledge, we strive to foster a culture where ethical practices are embedded into everything we do. Ongoing refresher courses and informational updates are provided to ensure our team remain vigilant and informed.
We have established clear, confidential channels for staff, suppliers, and any other stakeholders to raise concerns relating to modern slavery. Any suspicions or reports are reviewed promptly by management and are handled with the utmost diligence. Paddington Florist is committed to supporting those who speak up, ensuring there is no retribution or discrimination for raising genuine concerns. We believe transparency and a proactive approach are essential in identifying and addressing issues should they arise.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is subject to an annual review, ensuring our policies and processes remain effective and relevant. This review assesses both the risks and the measures we have in place, as well as the outcomes of any reported concerns or investigations. By evaluating the success of our efforts year on year, Paddington Florist demonstrates our unwavering commitment to combating modern slavery and continually improving our practices.
As a longstanding florist in Paddington, trusted by households and businesses throughout the area, we are acutely aware of our duty to act with integrity. Paddington Florist reaffirms our promise to take an active role in preventing modern slavery, not just within our own operations but across our broader supply chain. We believe that by staying informed, vigilant, and transparent, we can contribute to a marketplace free from exploitation and continue to serve our community with pride and responsibility.
