As a trusted florist in Norbury serving local households and businesses, Norbury Florist recognises our responsibility to uphold the highest ethical standards in everything we do. We are firmly committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in every part of our operations, including our supply chain. Our Modern Slavery Statement outlines the steps we take to ensure we play our part in eradicating all forms of slavery, and reflects our values as a local business trusted by our community.
Norbury Florist has a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and all forms of exploitation. We will not knowingly engage with any business, individual, or supplier involved in human trafficking, forced labour, child labour, or any exploitation that constitutes modern slavery. Any suspicion of such practices results in immediate review and necessary action, including the termination of relationships with offending parties.
We understand that the risk of modern slavery can exist anywhere within a supply chain. Therefore, we conduct thorough due diligence before engaging with new suppliers, and we regularly review existing suppliers for compliance with our ethical criteria. All key suppliers are requested to confirm their own modern slavery policies and due diligence measures. Where appropriate, we prioritise working with suppliers who can demonstrate active steps to prevent modern slavery within their operations and wider supply chains.
Our team is regularly trained on modern slavery, including how to identify signs of exploitation and how to respond appropriately to any concerns. This training equips our staff to understand the importance of vigilance and empowers them to act when something does not seem right. By maintaining a strong awareness throughout our business, we help to ensure that we remain proactive in addressing and preventing this issue.
Norbury Florist encourages all staff members and suppliers to raise concerns — with the confidence that they will be treated seriously and without fear of retribution. We have clear internal channels through which suspected breaches of our modern slavery policy can be reported confidentially to management. Every report is reviewed carefully, and appropriate actions are taken promptly to resolve any genuine concerns and prevent future issues.
This Modern Slavery Statement and the associated measures are reviewed and updated annually to maintain their effectiveness. We seek feedback from staff and suppliers as part of our continuous improvement approach. This process ensures that we remain vigilant and responsive to any new risks within our business or supply chains, and that we are always striving to enhance our safeguards.
As a business at the heart of the Norbury community, we understand the importance of trust and responsibility. Our customers rely on us to uphold the values that make us a reliable and ethical partner. By safeguarding against modern slavery, we affirm our commitment to ethical practices that protect people, respect human rights, and serve the best interests of Norbury households and businesses.
