Florist Welling stands firmly against all forms of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child exploitation. As a respected local florist serving Welling’s households and businesses, we recognize the vital role we play in promoting ethical practices within our industry. Our commitment is unwavering: we do not tolerate any form of slavery or exploitation within our operations or supply chains.
We believe that the respect for human rights begins at the source. Florist Welling has implemented rigorous due diligence measures to ensure our direct suppliers—including growers, wholesalers, and packaging providers—uphold the highest standards of labour and ethics. All suppliers are required to adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct, which explicitly prohibits forced labour, child labour, and human trafficking. Before entering into agreements, we assess suppliers’ labour practices, reputation, and compliance history.
Our relationships with suppliers are under constant review. We work collaboratively to improve transparency, and we reserve the right to terminate relationships with any supplier found to be in breach of our modern slavery policy. Through these measures, we reinforce our responsibility to foster ethical business throughout our floral supply chain.
We understand that combating modern slavery requires informed and vigilant staff. All team members at Florist Welling receive training on identifying signs of exploitation and understanding their obligation to uphold our zero-tolerance policy. Training is conducted upon employment and refreshed annually, equipping our staff to ensure our workplace and procurement practices remain free of modern slavery.
Florist Welling actively encourages a culture where concerns about unethical practice can be raised safely. We have established clear internal reporting channels for staff to report concerns or suspicions of slavery or trafficking in our business or supply chains. All reports are treated confidentially and investigated thoroughly, with protection in place for whistleblowers. This open-door approach empowers everyone involved in our business to contribute to the fight against modern slavery.
Our Modern Slavery Statement and associated policies are reviewed annually by management as part of our wider commitment to continuous improvement. This review process ensures that any changes in legislation, best practice, or supply chain dynamics are reflected appropriately. Progress is documented, and procedures are updated to address new risks and strengthen our approach.
As a long-standing florist in Welling, we care deeply about the trust placed in us by local people and businesses. Our dedication to eradicating modern slavery is an extension of our role as a responsible and ethical business partner within the community. We remain committed to transparency, integrity, and the highest standards of ethical conduct in everything we do.
Florist Welling makes this statement in recognition of our duty to protect human rights and promote social responsibility. We continually strive to ensure that our business and its supply chains remain free from modern slavery and exploitation. We invite our customers and partners to hold us accountable to the standards outlined herein and join us in promoting a better, fairer world for all.
