Crystal Palace Florist is committed to operating ethically, responsibly, and transparently in every aspect of our business. We have a zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking within our organisation and throughout our supply chains. This statement outlines the actions we take to prevent modern slavery, safeguard people, and fulfil our duties as a trusted florist serving Crystal Palace’s households and businesses.
Modern slavery can take many forms, including servitude, forced or compulsory labour, and human trafficking. At Crystal Palace Florist, we maintain a zero tolerance policy to any practices that compromise human rights. We will not knowingly work with anyone who engages in or condones modern slavery. Our senior management team ensures this principle is upheld at every level and reviews the policy annually to guarantee its effectiveness.
We recognise that our commitment to tackling modern slavery extends beyond our own premises. As such, we undertake due diligence when bringing new suppliers on board, including assessing risks in the supply chain and requesting evidence of labour standards compliance. We favour working with local, reputable suppliers who can demonstrate fair and transparent working conditions for all employees. We periodically review supplier relationships, reserving the right to terminate contracts with any party found to be involved in unlawful or unethical labour practices.
Our team members are vital in recognising signs of modern slavery and contributing to a responsible workplace culture. We offer training and resources to all staff, raising awareness on the risks of modern slavery, how to identify potential concerns, and what action to take if they suspect wrongdoing. Staff are briefed about the processes for reporting modern slavery concerns in a confidential and secure manner, ensuring everyone feels supported and empowered to act against exploitation.
It is important to us that anyone connected with Crystal Palace Florist can speak up if they suspect modern slavery in our operations or supply chain. We provide confidential channels for raising concerns, whether for staff, suppliers, or community members. All reports are investigated thoroughly and fairly, and appropriate action is taken without delay. We will always respect the anonymity of those raising concerns and protect them from retaliation.
This statement and our modern slavery policies are reviewed annually to reflect best practice and to address any new risks. We assess our procedures and training activities regularly, aiming for continuous improvement in our fight against modern slavery. By remaining vigilant, adaptable, and ethical, we ensure that our business maintains the highest standards for the benefit of all those we work with and serve.
As a long-established Crystal Palace florist, we take our responsibility to the local community seriously. Households and businesses trust us not just for beautiful flowers and arrangements, but also for the way we conduct ourselves as an employer and local business partner. This Modern Slavery Statement demonstrates our ongoing commitment to upholding those standards and ensuring dignity, respect, and freedom for everyone involved with Crystal Palace Florist.
