At Florist Canonbury, we recognize our deep responsibility to safeguard human rights and uphold ethical practices within all aspects of our business. As a trusted Florist within the Canonbury community, serving local households and businesses, we are committed to preventing any form of modern slavery or human trafficking in our activities and supply chains. This statement sets out the measures we take to ensure a zero tolerance environment for exploitation, reflecting our commitment to ethical trading and social responsibility.
Florist Canonbury operates a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking. We treat all staff, suppliers, and partners with respect, requiring the same commitment from those we work with. Any form of forced labour, bonded labour, or human trafficking is strictly prohibited and immediately reportable. Should any concerns arise regarding such practices, appropriate action including reporting to the relevant authorities will be taken without exception.
Our suppliers play a vital role in our business. We conduct diligence checks on our supply chain, particularly focusing on those who provide flowers, foliage, gift products, and related items. All suppliers are required to confirm their own compliance with anti-slavery and human trafficking legislation. We reserve the right to audit suppliers and terminate relationships where adequate safeguards are not evident or where a supplier is found to be complicit in unethical practices.
All Florist Canonbury personnel receive training to identify and mitigate risks associated with modern slavery. Our training programmes raise awareness of the signs that may indicate slavery or trafficking, and inform all staff of the procedures for reporting any suspicious activity. Employees are encouraged to speak openly and confidentially should they suspect instances of unlawful practice, either within our business or in relation to our supply chains.
We provide clear internal channels for reporting concerns related to modern slavery. Staff are fully briefed on how to raise issues directly and confidentially with management, ensuring vital protection for whistleblowers. We treat any disclosure of unethical activity with the utmost seriousness and promise discrete investigation and appropriate action. External partners and suppliers are expected to similarly report concerns where relevant. This multi-layered approach strengthens our ability to detect, prevent, and respond to incidents of modern slavery.
Florist Canonbury undertakes a formal annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and all related practices. The review considers changes in the business, new risks, regulatory updates, and feedback from staff or external stakeholders. Adjustments and enhancements are made as necessary to reaffirm our unyielding stance on ethical business and to ensure we remain a safe, responsible service provider to the Canonbury community.
As a business that flourishes through the support of local residents and businesses, Florist Canonbury holds itself accountable to the highest standards of social conscience. We thank our customers for their trust and support in ensuring our shared vision for a fair, ethical, and compassionate community.
