Modern Slavery Statement — Flat Clearance Canary Wharf
Flat Clearance Canary Wharf is committed to a clear, robust stance against modern slavery in every part of our operations. We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards forced labour, human trafficking and any exploitation. This statement sets out our approach for preventing modern slavery within our direct services and across the supply chain for Canary Wharf flat clearance, describing governance, expectations, and continual improvement measures.Our Zero-Tolerance Policy
Our policy makes clear that anyone working for or with our firm must be treated with dignity and respect. We will not tolerate any form of forced or bonded labour, child labour, or human trafficking in flat clearance Canary Wharf activities. All employees, contractors and subcontractors are required to adhere to our code of conduct; any breach will result in disciplinary action or contract termination. Zero tolerance underpins recruitment, contracting and supplier selection.
Supplier Audits and Due Diligence
We carry out proportionate due diligence and supplier audits for those delivering apartment clearance in Canary Wharf and related services. Our supplier assessment process includes:- Pre-contract checks on labour practices and policies
- Regular compliance audits and site visits
- Corrective action plans where risks are identified
Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing
We provide secure, confidential reporting channels for employees and third parties to raise concerns about modern slavery or exploitation. Reports can be made anonymously through internal hotline processes and are taken seriously with formal investigation procedures. Canary Wharf flat clearance personnel receive information on how to report concerns, guaranteed non-retaliation and clear escalation pathways to senior management.
Training, Communication and Monitoring: We publish clear expectations across our teams and deliver training so staff can recognise signs of exploitation during flat and apartment removals. Awareness and practical guidance are part of induction and periodic refresher training. Managers are trained to evaluate supplier audit results and enforce remediation where necessary. Monitoring includes performance indicators and regular reviews of high-risk contracts.
Supply Chain Controls: We map supply chains for flat clearance services in Canary Wharf to identify potential exposure to modern slavery. Contract clauses require suppliers to comply with anti-slavery standards, permit audits and provide proof of worker rights compliance. Our procurement process integrates these requirements and uses proportional checks for smaller and larger suppliers alike.
Governance and Accountability: Responsibility for anti-slavery measures sits with senior leadership and is overseen by our compliance function. Regular reports are presented to governance bodies and actions are tracked to completion. We use both internal and external expertise to validate our approach, ensuring Flat Clearance Canary Wharf maintains consistent, accountable practices across the business.
Remediation and Continuous Improvement: Where issues are identified through supplier audits, reporting channels or routine checks, we require immediate remediation plans and track outcomes. We work collaboratively with suppliers to implement corrective actions, protect affected individuals and strengthen controls. Continuous improvement means updating due diligence, adapting audits and sharing lessons across the organisation to reduce recurrence.
Annual Review and Public Commitment: This statement will be reviewed at least once every year to assess effectiveness and to update policies. Our annual review includes evaluation of supplier audits, reporting incident trends, training completion rates and progress on remediation. By publishing this commitment, Flat Clearance Canary Wharf reiterates its pledge to eradicate modern slavery from our operations and supply chains, ensuring ongoing vigilance and accountability.
