At Flower Delivery Creekmouth, we firmly believe that ethical practice forms the foundation of our business and community relationships. As a trusted florist serving the Creekmouth area’s households and businesses, we recognize our responsibility to take meaningful action against modern slavery and human trafficking both within our own operations and throughout our supply chain. Our commitment is unwavering and forms a key part of our overall approach to social responsibility.
We have a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking in all its forms. This applies to all individuals working for us, as well as those acting on our behalf and our suppliers. Everyone associated with Flower Delivery Creekmouth is required to uphold these principles. We will never knowingly conduct business with any organization or individual found to be involved in or turning a blind eye to modern slavery in any form.
Our flowers and products reach Creekmouth residences and businesses via a carefully selected network of suppliers. We are committed to working only with suppliers and partners who share our high standards regarding fair working conditions. All suppliers undergo a rigorous assessment process, including self-assessment questionnaires and, where necessary, supporting documentation regarding employment practices, sourcing, and traceability. We reserve the right to audit suppliers at any time, and we review supplier compliance regularly to identify and address any vulnerabilities within our supply chain.
We recognize that knowledge and awareness are crucial in tackling modern slavery. All employees receive training to help them understand what modern slavery is, how it can manifest, and the warning signs to watch for. Our training also covers the importance of reporting any concerns and the specific steps to take, ensuring that our team feels empowered to play their part in eradicating exploitative practices from our supply chain and workplace.
Creating a safe environment for staff, suppliers, and the public to raise any concerns without risk of reprisal is important to us. We have clear whistleblowing procedures in place which enable individuals to report suspected or actual incidents of modern slavery or unethical behaviour. These reports are taken seriously and will be investigated swiftly and discreetly, with appropriate follow-up action depending on the findings.
We are committed to a process of continuous improvement. Our modern slavery statement and all related procedures are reviewed annually to ensure ongoing effectiveness and responsiveness to emerging risks. We also monitor best practices and regulatory changes to ensure that our approach remains current and robust. This iterative approach helps us uphold our pledge to keep our practices free from modern slavery and to foster a culture of ethical responsibility at every level of our operation.
As a local business entrusted by Creekmouth’s families and enterprises with their important occasions, we view our responsibility to respect and promote human rights as central to our mission. This Modern Slavery Statement reflects that commitment. We will continue to review, strengthen, and communicate our policies to advance ethical standards and ensure we operate with integrity, transparency, and care for our community and all those connected to our business.
