Modern Slavery Statement — Flat Clearance Bromley

Flat Clearance Bromley is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms across our operations and supply chain. This statement outlines our approach and affirms a zero-tolerance policy towards forced labour, debt bondage, and any practices that exploit people. Our pledge is clear: we will not accept modern slavery in the way we operate, in the services we provide, or in the actions of our partners providing flat clearance in Bromley and surrounding areas.

The scope of this policy applies to all employees, contractors, subcontractors and suppliers engaged by Bromley flat clearance teams. We recognise that the risk of exploitation can arise in many parts of the value chain, particularly in manual labour, logistics and low-wage roles. To address this, we maintain robust recruitment standards, verify right-to-work documentation, and ensure fair pay. Every individual supporting our flat clearance services in Bromley has the right to safe, legal and decently paid work.

Supplier Audits and Due Diligence

We conduct periodic supplier assessments and targeted audits to confirm compliance with anti-slavery standards. Audit procedures include:

• Documentation review of payroll and contracts;
• On-site checks where feasible to observe working conditions;
• Interviews with workers and management to verify practices.

As part of our procurement process we use risk-based screening to prioritise suppliers for audit. Higher-risk suppliers, such as those providing moving labour, waste removal or temporary staffing for residential clearance Bromley projects, are subject to enhanced checks and contractual clauses that require compliance with our modern slavery standards. Contracts include rights to audit and clear remediation measures, and persistent non-compliance may result in termination of supply.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

We operate multiple confidential reporting channels for concerns about exploitation or unethical behaviour. Workers, subcontractors and third parties can report issues anonymously or directly to our compliance team. Reports are taken seriously and investigated promptly. We guarantee no retaliation for good-faith reporting and provide protection for whistleblowers. Reports relating to Bromley flat clearance projects are triaged to ensure rapid response and worker safety. Anyone raising a concern will be treated with respect and confidentiality.

In addition to internal channels, we encourage use of external reporting mechanisms where appropriate. Our aim is to ensure that employees and partners know how to speak up and that concerns are escalated to senior management to drive corrective actions. Records of reports and outcomes are maintained to improve transparency and accountability.

We deliver regular training for staff and contractors involved in Bromley flat clearance operations so they can identify signs of modern slavery and understand reporting procedures. Training covers vulnerable worker indicators, safe recruitment practices and how to respond to suspected exploitation. Prevention through education is a cornerstone of our approach, and we update materials as risks evolve.

Monitoring, Performance Metrics and Continuous Improvement

Our governance framework includes key performance indicators related to supplier compliance, number of audits completed, training completion rates and incidents reported. We review these metrics at management meetings and use them to prioritise improvements. Where audits identify weaknesses, we implement corrective action plans with clear timelines and verification steps to ensure compliance across all Bromley clearing and removal activities.

Annual Review and Statement Publication — This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed at least annually by senior leadership to assess effectiveness, embed lessons learned and set objectives for the coming year. The annual review considers audit findings, reporting trends, training outcomes and changes in the regulatory environment. As part of our commitment to transparency, we will continue to publish a clear, candid account of our efforts to eradicate modern slavery from Flat Clearance Bromley operations and our extended supply chain.
