At Dagenham Florist, we are steadfastly committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all aspects of our business. Our Modern Slavery Statement reflects our dedication to combating modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. As a trusted florist serving households and businesses throughout Dagenham, we recognise our responsibility to uphold human rights and contribute positively to our community.
Dagenham Florist has a strict zero tolerance approach towards modern slavery and human trafficking. We do not tolerate any form of forced labour, servitude, child labour, or exploitation—whether it occurs within our own operations or anywhere in our supply chains. Our policies are regularly reviewed to ensure full compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and to reflect best practices in ethical trade.
As a local florist, our suppliers are crucial in delivering high-quality products and services to our customers. We require all our suppliers to share our commitment to eradicating modern slavery. During supplier selection and ongoing relationships, we carry out appropriate due diligence to assess risk. This includes seeking confirmation of their own compliance with relevant legislation and ethical standards. Where necessary, we request evidence of their processes for preventing slavery and human trafficking within their own operations and supply chains.
We believe that ongoing training is essential for staff at all levels to understand and identify the risks of modern slavery. Dagenham Florist provides regular training sessions for our team, so they are able to recognise signs of exploitation and understand their role in ensuring unethical practices do not occur. Training materials are updated as legislation and best practices evolve, ensuring our staff are well informed and vigilant in their day-to-day roles.
To support a safe and transparent workplace, we maintain accessible and confidential channels through which staff and suppliers can report any concerns related to modern slavery or unethical practices. We actively encourage everyone connected with our business to report any suspicion or evidence of modern slavery without fear of reprisal. All reports are treated with strict confidentiality and are investigated thoroughly and sensitively in line with our internal procedures.
Our commitment to preventing modern slavery is an ongoing priority. Dagenham Florist reviews this Modern Slavery Statement every year, evaluating our policies, practices, and procedures. Lessons learned over the previous year guide improvements, helping ensure that our approach remains effective. We strive to foster a culture of transparency, responsibility, and respect for human rights throughout every level of our business and in all our dealings.
As a long-standing part of the Dagenham community, we are dedicated not only to delivering beautiful floral arrangements but also to upholding the highest ethical standards. This statement embodies our ongoing responsibility to customers, staff, suppliers, and the local area. We are determined to play our part in building a fairer society, free from modern slavery, and to maintain the trust that households and businesses across Dagenham place in us every day.
