Peckham Florist is dedicated to providing fresh, beautiful flowers to households and businesses throughout Peckham with integrity and respect for human rights. As a trusted and valued member of our community, we recognise our responsibility to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking have no place in our business or supply chains. We maintain a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery in all its forms.
Modern slavery, including forced labour, human trafficking, and child labour, is a serious violation of fundamental rights and freedoms. Peckham Florist has a zero tolerance approach towards any exploitation within our operations or among our suppliers. This policy is communicated across our organisation and forms a core part of our business ethics.
Our supply chain includes local flower growers, wholesalers, and sundry product suppliers. Peckham Florist conducts thorough due diligence when selecting suppliers, ensuring they share our values and commitment to eradicating modern slavery. We expect all suppliers to adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct, which prohibits any form of forced or child labour. We regularly assess supplier practices, seeking written assurances of compliance and conducting follow-up checks where concerns may arise.
We are committed to working only with partners who demonstrate transparency and accountability. If a supplier is found to be in breach of our standards, we will take corrective action, including the possibility of terminating the business relationship.
All members of our team, from florists to delivery personnel and administrative staff, are provided with guidance and training on recognising and preventing modern slavery. Regular training sessions and resource materials equip our staff to identify signs of exploitation and understand our reporting procedures. By fostering an informed and vigilant workforce, Peckham Florist strengthens the effectiveness of our zero tolerance policy.
We encourage our staff, suppliers, customers, and wider community to raise concerns about possible instances of modern slavery or unethical practices. Peckham Florist provides confidential reporting channels, ensuring that any reports are investigated promptly and as sensitively as possible. All concerns are taken seriously, and we are committed to protecting whistleblowers from retaliation.
This Modern Slavery Statement undergoes an annual review by management to assess its effectiveness and to update our approach as appropriate. Lessons learned, regulatory developments and feedback from our partners guide us as we strengthen our practices and remain vigilant against new risks. Peckham Florist is committed to continuous improvement, ensuring that our modern slavery prevention measures evolve alongside best practice and community expectations.
Operating in Peckham, we take pride in serving the households and businesses that make our neighbourhood vibrant. Our commitment to ethical business practices and human rights reflects the trust placed in us by our local community. We believe that by taking meaningful action against modern slavery, we honour both our customers and the values that underpin our business.
This statement has been approved by the management of Peckham Florist and will be updated annually to ensure it reflects our ongoing responsibility and dedication to ethical practice.
