As a respected florist serving Emerson Park’s households and businesses, Emerson Park Flowers is fully committed to preventing all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chain. Our customers trust us not only for our quality floral arrangements but also for our integrity, ethical standards, and dedication to fair business practices. This statement outlines our approach and ongoing actions to uphold these responsibilities in accordance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and our broader values.
Emerson Park Flowers operates with a clear zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. We categorically oppose any form of forced labour, servitude, child labour, or exploitation throughout our business and supply networks. Everyone associated with Emerson Park Flowers — our employees, contractors, and suppliers — is expected to comply with our ethical standards and adhere strictly to relevant legal requirements.
We understand that our responsibility extends beyond our immediate business and covers our entire supply chain. Emerson Park Flowers conducts thorough due diligence procedures when engaging new suppliers and regularly reviews existing relationships. We expect suppliers to share our values and to implement robust policies for preventing modern slavery within their organisations and sub-supply chains. All suppliers must confirm their compliance with anti-slavery laws as a condition of working with us. Where necessary, we seek additional assurances through regular audits or by requiring further certification.
Educating our employees is central to our strategy for combatting modern slavery. Emerson Park Flowers provides ongoing training and resources to all staff members, ensuring they are equipped to identify the signs of modern slavery or unethical practices. Training covers how to act if there are suspicions of exploitation and the protocols for escalating concerns to management confidentially and responsibly. This commitment to awareness ensures that every staff member plays an active role in upholding our standards.
Emerson Park Flowers encourages open and honest communication at every level. Any concerns regarding modern slavery, whether suspected or actual, can be raised without fear of retaliation. We have established clear reporting channels and a confidential complaints procedure to ensure that issues are dealt with swiftly, firmly, and fairly. We are committed to providing support and protection for anyone who voices concerns in good faith.
Our approach to tackling modern slavery is constantly evolving. We conduct an annual review of our policies, training programmes, and supply chain due diligence processes to assess their effectiveness and identify areas for improvement. We also consider feedback from staff and business partners as part of this review. Emerson Park Flowers remains committed to transparent reporting and continuous development to uphold the highest standards of ethical practice.
At Emerson Park Flowers, we recognise the importance of acting responsibly and ethically in all our business activities. This modern slavery statement sets out our dedication to safeguarding individuals and upholding human rights, reflecting our deep-rooted responsibility as a trusted Emerson Park florist. We will continue to act with vigilance, ensuring our business remains free from modern slavery and a force for positive change in our community and beyond.
