Modern Slavery Statement for Flat Clearance Clapham

At Flat Clearance Clapham we are unequivocal: we operate a zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery, forced labour and human trafficking in all areas of our operations and supply chain. This Flat clearance Clapham modern slavery statement sets out our commitments, the measures we take to prevent exploitation and the channels by which concerns can be raised. We recognise our responsibility as a local provider of Clapham flat clearance services and as an employer to ensure dignity and safety for all workers.

Our Zero-Tolerance Approach

Our stance is simple and non-negotiable: any evidence of slavery or human trafficking will result in immediate remedial action and, where appropriate, termination of contracts. This includes exploitation in direct employment and through third-party contractors engaged for flat clearance in Clapham projects. We have clear disciplinary policies and contractual clauses requiring compliance with anti-slavery laws, and we require all staff and partners to adhere to the highest ethical standards.

Due Diligence and Supplier Audits

We conduct risk-based due diligence across our procurement processes. Suppliers and contractors supplying goods and services to our Clapham flat clearance operations are assessed on labour practices, employment records, and policies that protect workers from exploitation. Where risk indicators are identified, we implement targeted supplier audits and on-site assessments to verify compliance. Audit results are recorded, and action plans required for remediation are tracked until closure. Our procurement team maintains a register of audited suppliers and publishes anonymised findings internally to ensure continuous improvement.

Supplier Standards and Contractual Controls

All new suppliers must sign our anti-slavery clauses and demonstrate appropriate due diligence. We use contractual controls, including the right to audit, corrective action plans and termination rights, to enforce standards. We continually review procurement categories that may carry higher risk—such as manual labour for clearances, large-scale removals and temporary staffing—and apply enhanced scrutiny in those areas.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

We provide multiple, confidential reporting mechanisms for employees, contractors and third parties who suspect modern slavery concerns. Reports can be raised internally through secure, confidential channels and are handled promptly by our compliance team. We protect whistleblowers from any form of retaliation and take all reports seriously, investigating thoroughly and escalating to law enforcement where appropriate. In addition, we educate staff and partners about the signs of forced labour and encourage vigilance during all flat clearance in Clapham activities.

Investigation and Remediation

Upon receipt of a report, our procedure ensures timely case handling: acknowledgement, risk assessment, investigation and, if required, rescue and support for victims. We collaborate with local authorities and specialist organisations to offer immediate support to potential victims, and we implement corrective actions and disciplinary measures for perpetrators. We document outcomes and lessons learned to prevent recurrence.

Training, Awareness and Worker Engagement

We provide regular training for employees and subcontractors involved in our flat clearance Clapham operations, emphasising rights at work, how to spot signs of exploitation and the correct reporting routes. We engage workers through briefings and toolbox talks at job sites and encourage open dialogue so that concerns can be surfaced early. Our human resources policies reinforce lawful recruitment practices, transparent pay and terms of employment to reduce vulnerability to exploitation.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement

We commit to an annual review of this modern slavery statement and our policies. Each year we will assess effectiveness, review supplier audit outcomes and update procedures to reflect evolving risks and best practice. This review includes consultations with operational teams, procurement, legal advisors and external specialists when needed, and it informs our action plan for the subsequent year.

Commitments and Next Steps

Our commitments include:

• Zero-tolerance policy applied across all operations;
• Regular, risk-based supplier audits and contractual enforcement;
• Clear, confidential reporting channels and protection for whistleblowers;
• An annual review process to measure impact and drive improvements.

Flat Clearance Clapham remains dedicated to acting ethically and transparently. We will continue to strengthen controls, engage with partners and empower workers so that all aspects of our flat clearance and removal services in Clapham are free from modern slavery and trafficking.
