At Flower Delivery Berkhamsted, we believe that every individual deserves dignity, respect, and freedom. As a trusted florist serving households and businesses across Berkhamsted, we recognise our responsibility to combat modern slavery and human trafficking wherever it may manifest within our operations or supply chains. This statement outlines the vigilance and measures we maintain to ensure modern slavery has no place in our business.
We operate a zero tolerance policy toward all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking. This stance is at the core of our values as a local florist dedicated to being an ethical business partner and community member. We are unequivocal in our view that modern slavery is wholly unacceptable, and we will not knowingly engage or contract with any business or supplier involved in these practices.
We understand that floristry relies on global supply chains, often sourcing flowers and materials from various regions. To safeguard against the risk of modern slavery, we carefully assess new and existing suppliers. This involves:
Our team is central to identifying and preventing modern slavery. We regularly train staff to spot potential warning signs of exploitation and understand the actions they should take upon suspicion. This training covers reporting mechanisms, signs of forced labour, and our zero tolerance approach. By equipping our staff with the necessary tools and knowledge, we foster a vigilant and responsible workforce.
We encourage any employee, supplier, or customer to raise concerns without fear of reprisal. Flower Delivery Berkhamsted provides clear channels for reporting suspicions or incidents related to modern slavery and unethical labour practices. All reports are treated seriously and confidentially, and prompt investigation follows. Feedback and support are offered throughout the process to reinforce our culture of openness and accountability.
We are committed to regularly reviewing and improving our approach. Every year, senior management undertakes a formal review of our modern slavery policy, procedures, and supply chain relationships. This process evaluates the effectiveness of our measures, identifies potential risks, and incorporates best practices to strengthen our stance. Necessary updates are made, and outcomes are communicated to our team to ensure alignment and reinforcement of our zero tolerance culture.
Being a trusted Berkhamsted florist requires more than delivering beautiful flowers – it means upholding the highest ethical standards in every aspect of our business. Our enduring commitment to preventing modern slavery reflects our pledge to serve the local community responsibly, safeguarding the rights and wellbeing of everyone connected to our operations.
