Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement — House Clearance Peckham

Company staff conducting a responsible house clearance in Peckham with care and complianceHouse Clearance Peckham is committed to preventing all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking across our operations and supply chains. This statement sets out the steps we take to ensure that our business, including residential and commercial clearances and related waste handling services, operates with the highest ethical standards. Our zero-tolerance policy is central to our approach and applies to every colleague, contractor and supplier engaged by the company.

We set out clear expectations for ethical behaviour and labour standards. Our policy requires all workers to be treated with dignity and respect, and prohibits forced, bonded or compulsory labour. As part of our commitment to ethical house clearance in Peckham and surrounding areas, we maintain recruitment controls, identity checks and contractual provisions that affirm workers' rights. We will not tolerate exploitation in any form, and breaches will lead to immediate contractual action.

Suppliers being audited with paperwork and compliance checksTo ensure responsible practices across our supply chain, we operate a programme of supplier audits and assessments. These include:

  • Risk-based supplier audits focusing on high-risk services such as third-party haulage, manual sorting and reuse operations.
  • Pre-engagement checks verifying compliance with employment law and right-to-work documentation.
  • Contractual clauses requiring suppliers to adhere to our modern slavery standards and permitting on-site inspections.

Team meeting demonstrating reporting channels and whistleblowing proceduresWe maintain clear reporting channels so that concerns about modern slavery or labour exploitation can be raised safely and promptly. Employees and third parties can report issues through internal whistleblowing procedures and designated reporting routes. Reports are treated confidentially, investigated thoroughly, and escalated to senior management when required. We make clear that no one will face retaliation for raising a genuine concern in good faith.

Auditor reviewing supplier contracts and worker documentationOur due diligence and ongoing monitoring processes include regular supplier reviews, on-site inspections, and training for staff involved in procurement and operations. Training ensures that people involved in delivering Peckham house clearance services can spot indicators of modern slavery and understand the correct response. We also require major suppliers to provide evidence of their labour standards, and we reserve the right to suspend or terminate relationships where non-compliance is identified.

Leadership team signing off the annual modern slavery reviewGovernance and accountability underpin our efforts. The leadership team reviews modern slavery risks as part of wider business risk management. An

annual review

of policies and procedures is undertaken to measure effectiveness, update risk assessments and implement improvements. This review examines audit findings, training completion rates, incident reports and remedial actions taken. Where gaps are found, we deploy corrective action plans and follow up until satisfactory closure.

Commitment and Continuous Improvement

We are dedicated to continuous improvement in preventing slavery and trafficking across our house-clearance Peckham operations. Our measurable actions include regular supplier re-assessments, refreshed staff training, and targeted audits of high-risk activities. We will continue to refine our controls, strengthen contractual safeguards and work collaboratively with partners to raise standards across the sector.

Zero-Tolerance Policy and Next Steps

Zero-tolerance means that any confirmed instance of modern slavery results in decisive action: remediation for affected individuals, contractual termination where necessary, and a review of systemic issues to prevent recurrence. We will publish results of our annual review and evolve our approach to ensure that our services remain ethical, transparent and compliant with human rights expectations.

Reporting, Remediation and Accountability

All suspected cases can be reported through our established channels and are investigated in line with our procedures. We commit to timely remediation, cooperation with authorities and continuous stakeholder engagement to mitigate risks. Our aspiration is that every aspect of our supply chain for house clearance services in Peckham demonstrates respect for human dignity and the rule of law.

Approval

This statement is endorsed by senior management and will be reviewed at least annually to reflect changes in operations, legislation and emerging risks. Through vigilance, supplier audits, robust reporting channels and an unwavering zero-tolerance stance, we aim to prevent modern slavery within our sphere of influence.
