Modern Slavery Statement

Modern Slavery Statement for Removal Company Bromley

This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps Removal Company Bromley has taken, and continues to take, to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in our business operations and supply chains. We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all of our relationships, ensuring that modern slavery has no place in our organisation or in the services we provide.

Our Commitment and Zero-Tolerance Policy

Removal Company Bromley operates a clear zero-tolerance approach to all forms of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour and child labour. We expect the same high standards from all those we work with, including employees, contractors, agency workers and suppliers.

No form of coercion, deception or exploitation is acceptable within our business or supply chains. Where we identify a risk or concern, we will act promptly and decisively, including suspending or terminating relationships with any party that is unable or unwilling to meet our ethical standards.

Our Business and Supply Chain

We provide domestic and commercial removals, storage, packing and associated services in Bromley and surrounding areas. Our supply chain includes providers of vehicles, fuel, packaging materials, storage facilities, maintenance services, recruitment agencies and other professional services.

We recognise that certain parts of our supply chain, such as agency labour and sourcing of packing materials, may present a higher risk of labour exploitation. We therefore apply enhanced scrutiny and controls in these areas to reduce the likelihood of modern slavery occurring.

Supplier Standards and Audits

All new suppliers are assessed against our ethical standards before we enter into a business relationship. We communicate our zero-tolerance stance on modern slavery and require suppliers to confirm that they comply with all relevant labour laws and regulations and that they do not engage in any form of modern slavery or human trafficking.

We reserve the right to conduct audits, site visits or information requests where we consider risk to be higher or where concerns are raised. These audits may include reviewing employment records, worker contracts and working conditions, as well as discussions with management about their own supply chains. Where non-compliance is identified, we will work with the supplier on a clear corrective action plan or, if necessary, terminate the relationship.

Training and Awareness

We provide training and guidance to relevant employees, particularly those involved in procurement, recruitment and site supervision. This training helps staff understand what modern slavery is, how to recognise warning signs and how to respond to any concerns. We review and refresh this training periodically so that it remains current and effective.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

Removal Company Bromley encourages all employees, workers, suppliers and other stakeholders to speak up if they suspect that modern slavery or any related abuse may be occurring in our operations or supply chains. Concerns can be raised through established internal reporting channels or directly to senior management.

All reports are treated seriously and investigated promptly and sensitively. We do not tolerate any form of victimisation or retaliation against individuals who raise concerns in good faith. Where appropriate, we will work with external organisations or authorities to address and resolve issues.

Continuous Improvement and Annual Review

We recognise that tackling modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility. We are committed to continually improving our policies, procedures and due diligence processes. Each year, we review the effectiveness of our approach by considering supplier performance, audit findings, training feedback and any incidents or concerns raised.

This Modern Slavery Statement is formally reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The review is overseen by senior management to ensure that our actions remain robust, proportionate and aligned with best practice. Any significant changes to our risk profile, business model or supply chain will trigger an earlier review if necessary.

By publishing this Statement, Removal Company Bromley reaffirms its commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms and to promoting fair, safe and respectful working conditions for everyone connected with our business.
