At Honor Oak Florist, we recognise our responsibility as a trusted florist serving the Honor Oak community—including local households and businesses—to uphold the highest ethical standards across all aspects of our work. We maintain a strict zero tolerance policy toward all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking. This statement outlines our ongoing commitment to eradicate these abuses from our business activities and our supply chains.
We understand that our ethical responsibilities extend well beyond our own shop doors. That is why we carry out stringent due diligence on all our suppliers. Each supplier is assessed to ensure their compliance with local and international labour laws, and we expect them to uphold the same commitment to human rights and fair working practices as we do. Our terms and conditions clearly state that any connection to modern slavery or human trafficking is grounds for immediate suspension or termination of our business relationship. Where possible, we seek assurances from suppliers regarding the origin of our products, and we favour working with suppliers who demonstrate transparent labour practices.
We believe that an informed workforce is essential in the fight against modern slavery. All staff at Honor Oak Florist receive regular training to raise awareness about modern slavery and human trafficking risks, both in our daily operations and within our supply chain. This training empowers employees to recognise signs of exploitation and understand the far-reaching impacts of unethical labour practices, ensuring that everyone within our organisation is equipped to contribute to vigilance and prevention efforts.
Creating a safe and open environment for reporting concerns is fundamental. Honor Oak Florist encourages staff, suppliers, and customers to speak up if they suspect unethical labour practices connected to our business. All concerns can be reported confidentially through pre-established internal channels. We assure all individuals that their reports will be treated with the utmost seriousness, and that individuals will not be subject to any retaliation for raising genuine concerns in good faith.
This modern slavery statement is reviewed annually by senior management, in line with our commitment to ongoing improvement. During this review, we assess the effectiveness of our due diligence processes, staff training, and supplier engagement, seeking ways to further strengthen our approach. Should new risks emerge or best practices evolve, we will update our policies and procedures accordingly to remain at the forefront of ethical business conduct.
The fight against modern slavery is a shared responsibility that requires vigilance from all corners of society. By implementing these policies and procedures, Honor Oak Florist reaffirms its role as a responsible business partner and employer. We are deeply committed to serving the Honor Oak community with integrity, respect, and trust, and we will continue to work proactively to prevent any form of modern slavery or human trafficking within our sphere of influence.
This statement was approved and adopted by the management of Honor Oak Florist, with the intention of upholding both our legal obligations and our moral responsibility to the community we proudly serve.
