At Flowers Aldershot, we recognise our duty to uphold the highest ethical standards in every aspect of our business. We are wholly committed to preventing modern slavery, forced labour, and human trafficking within our operations and throughout our supply chain. As a trusted florist proudly serving the homes and businesses of Aldershot, we believe in fostering a safe and respectful working environment both for our staff and everyone involved in our supply chains.
Flowers Aldershot adopts a zero tolerance approach to all forms of slavery and human trafficking. We ensure strict adherence to human rights principles, and expect all those who work for and with us to share our commitment. Any suspicion, evidence, or incident of forced or coerced labour within our own business or our suppliers' operations will lead to immediate and decisive action, including termination of contracts where necessary.
Our commitment extends beyond our own team to everyone who forms part of our supply chain. We conduct thorough due diligence when selecting and reviewing suppliers, with a particular focus on their practices in safeguarding against modern slavery. This process includes: requesting details of their internal policies, reviewing their labour management procedures, requiring written confirmation of adherence to anti-slavery laws, and, where appropriate, visiting suppliers to verify their labour and employment practices. We also monitor ongoing relationships to detect any change in circumstances which may give cause for concern.
We believe awareness is fundamental in combating modern slavery. All Flowers Aldershot staff receive regular training to understand the signs and risks of modern slavery and human trafficking, both within our workplace and in the wider supply network. This training empowers them to spot potential issues and ensures they are prepared to respond to any concerns appropriately. Through these programs, we foster a culture of vigilance, transparency, and ethical responsibility among our employees.
Flowers Aldershot encourages anyone – whether a member of our staff, a supplier, or part of the community – to report concerns about possible modern slavery or unethical conduct. Staff are made fully aware of the internal channels to confidentially raise concerns, without fear of retaliation. All reports are investigated promptly and thoroughly, with appropriate action taken to remediate any issues found. Our commitment is transparent communication, accountability, and the continual protection of all individuals involved with our business.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure its relevance and effectiveness. We closely follow developments in legislation and best practice so we can refine our policies and procedures over time. Feedback from staff, suppliers, and the wider community is welcomed and incorporated into our future practices.
As a longstanding florist serving Aldershot's households and businesses, Flowers Aldershot takes this responsibility seriously. Our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity is at the heart of everything we do. By maintaining vigilant oversight and fostering a culture of respect, we strive to be a responsible presence in our community and set a standard for others to follow.
