Flat Clearance Enfield Modern Slavery Statement
Flat Clearance Enfield is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all areas of our business and supply chain. This statement sets out our policies and the steps we take as a leading flat clearance in Enfield provider to ensure that forced labour, exploitation and any form of human trafficking are not present in the services we deliver. We operate a zero-tolerance policy toward any practice that breaches human rights, and this commitment is embedded in our company values.
Our approach to eradicating modern slavery in our Enfield flat clearance services is based on risk assessment, training and clear procedures. We require all employees and subcontractors to comply with employment laws and our internal codes of conduct. Staff receive targeted training so they can recognise indicators of exploitation and know how to respond. We emphasise the importance of ethical labour practices across every project and every property clearance.
We maintain strict recruitment standards and verify the right to work for all workers engaged in flat-clearance Enfield operations. Supplier due diligence is a key element of our compliance framework: before onboarding, suppliers must declare adherence to anti-slavery principles and allow access for verification. Our policies are communicated through contracts and supplier agreements to ensure transparency.
Zero-Tolerance Policy and Supplier Audits
We operate a zero-tolerance policy on modern slavery. Any allegation or evidence that a worker has been subjected to exploitation will result in immediate suspension of the relevant contract, a full investigation and, where appropriate, termination of the relationship. All cases are escalated to senior management for decisive action.
To ensure compliance we conduct regular supplier audits and risk assessments of our supply chain. These audits include:
- Verification of employment records and right-to-work documentation,
- Site inspections for high-risk activities associated with Enfield flat clearance contractors,
- Review of pay practices, working hours and living conditions where relevant.
Our procurement team uses a risk-based approach to prioritise audits where the potential for modern slavery is highest. We expect suppliers to implement robust employment practices and to provide clear evidence of compliance. Where suppliers fail to meet our standards, we require time-bound remediation plans or we will withdraw business to protect vulnerable workers.
Reporting Channels, Whistleblowing and Annual Review
We provide multiple safe reporting channels for employees, subcontractors and third parties to raise concerns about suspected exploitation. Reports can be made anonymously through our whistleblowing mechanisms and are treated with confidentiality and care. All concerns are investigated promptly and impartially. We encourage staff to report anything that may indicate modern slavery in any part of our operations or supply chain.
Our reporting framework is supported by a documented investigation procedure that ensures allegations are evaluated, evidence is collected, and appropriate remedial and disciplinary steps are taken. We protect whistleblowers from retaliation and seek to remedy harm to affected individuals, including referrals to specialist support services where needed.
We carry out an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and our policies to ensure continued effectiveness. The review examines audit outcomes, incident records, training uptake and evolving risks within the Enfield area and the broader clearance sector. As part of the annual review we update our action plan, set measurable objectives for the coming year and publish progress internally to maintain accountability.
Flat clearance Enfield remains resolutely committed to eliminating modern slavery. Through robust supplier audits, clear reporting channels, a strong zero-tolerance stance and regular review, we strive to protect workers and uphold the highest ethical standards across every clearance project we undertake.
