At Holloway Florist, we recognise the vital role we play as a trusted provider of floral arrangements to households and businesses throughout Holloway. Upholding the highest standards of ethical conduct is central to our values. We are committed to taking robust steps to prevent all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking within our own business operations and across our supply chains.
We enforce a strict zero tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced or compulsory labour, and exploitation. This policy applies to every aspect of our business, from our shop floor and delivery teams to the suppliers we select for our fresh flowers and ancillary products. Holloway Florist expects all employees, partners, and suppliers to fully comply with this unwavering stance.
Our relationships with suppliers are built on trust, transparency, and a shared commitment to ethical business practices. Before entering into agreements, we conduct thorough due diligence on all new suppliers. This includes assessing their labour practices, reviewing published policies, requesting information on sourcing, and ensuring their compliance with anti-slavery legislation where applicable. Any supplier found to be in breach of these standards is subject to immediate review, and we reserve the right to terminate contracts with any party failing to align with our values.
Our employees are integral in the prevention of modern slavery. We provide thorough training on spotting signs of exploitation and understanding the processes necessary for effective reporting. All staff, from shop assistants to delivery personnel and management, receive induction and annual refresher sessions. These training materials are updated to reflect best practice and legal requirements, ensuring our team is knowledgeable and vigilant.
Holloway Florist encourages a culture of openness. All employees are empowered to speak up if they suspect any form of modern slavery within the business or supply chain. Clear internal channels are in place, and all reports are treated confidentially and investigated thoroughly. We guarantee that no employee will suffer reprisal for raising concerns in good faith. Any confirmed breaches are dealt with decisively, in accordance with our disciplinary procedures and the law.
We are committed to continuous improvement in our approach to modern slavery. This statement, and all related policies, are reviewed annually by senior management to ensure ongoing relevance, effectiveness, and compliance with legal obligations. Feedback from employees and stakeholders is actively sought to refine our policies and training programmes. Any changes or updates are communicated promptly across the business.
As a longstanding Holloway florist serving homes and businesses throughout our community, we recognise both our influence and responsibility in upholding ethical standards. We are dedicated to ensuring that every flower we source, every bouquet we prepare, and every delivery we make reflects our commitment to integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. Through stringent policies and proactive leadership, Holloway Florist is determined to be part of the collective effort toward eradicating modern slavery in our sector and beyond.
