At Osidge Florist, we are dedicated to maintaining the highest ethical standards in every aspect of our operations. As a trusted Osidge florist serving local households and businesses, we understand our responsibility to protect human rights and prevent exploitation. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines our ongoing commitment to combating modern slavery and human trafficking within our business and throughout our supply chain.
Osidge Florist operates a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking. We are unequivocally opposed to all forms of forced labour, servitude, child labour, and exploitation. This principle is embedded in our core values and underpins the way we conduct business, both internally and with external partners.
We recognise the potential risk of modern slavery occurring within supply chains. To address this, Osidge Florist has implemented rigorous due diligence procedures when selecting and working with suppliers. We require all suppliers to confirm their compliance with labour laws and ethical practices. Periodically, we assess and review our supply chains, prioritising transparency, accountability, and integrity. Where necessary, we reserve the right to terminate relationships with suppliers who do not meet our ethical standards or who are found to breach anti-slavery laws.
We ensure all employees are made aware of the dangers of modern slavery and how to identify possible signs of exploitation. Training sessions form part of our onboarding process for new staff and are regularly updated. By increasing our team's understanding, we aim to empower them to act responsibly and with vigilance, in line with our zero tolerance approach.
Osidge Florist has established clear processes for reporting suspected instances of modern slavery, whether within our own business or our supply chain. All members of staff are encouraged to raise concerns confidentially, without fear of retaliation. We also encourage partners and stakeholders to report any suspicious activity to senior management. All reports are thoroughly investigated and appropriate action is taken where necessary.
This statement is reviewed annually to ensure our policies and practices remain effective and aligned with our commitment to eradicate modern slavery. We reflect on developments in legislation, assess any changing risks in our sector, and update our procedures as required. Our modern slavery approach is integral to responsible business operations and is communicated openly to staff, suppliers, and customers alike.
Osidge Florist is proud to serve our local community with honesty and care. We believe that upholding these values safeguards not only those directly in our supply chain, but also strengthens trust with every household and business that we serve. Tackling modern slavery is a fundamental part of our role as a responsible florist, and we remain steadfast in our efforts to ensure fairness, dignity, and respect for all involved in our business.
