Modern Slavery Statement — Flat Clearance Edmonton
Flat Clearance Edmonton is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all aspects of our operations. This Modern Slavery policy sets out our zero-tolerance stance and the practical steps we take to identify and reduce risk in our services, including flat clearance in Edmonton and related activities. We recognise the responsibility that comes with providing property clearance, waste removal and tenancy cleanouts, and we ensure our workforce and suppliers operate under fair and lawful conditions.We maintain a clear zero-tolerance policy to any form of forced labour, bonded labour, human trafficking or exploitation. All staff and contractors engaged by Edmonton flat clearance teams are expected to abide by our code of conduct, which emphasises respect for human rights, safe working conditions and lawful employment practices. Our policy applies equally to full-time staff, temporary workers and subcontractors who support flat-clearance Edmonton operations.
Our approach combines prevention, monitoring and remediation. We conduct risk assessments across our service lines and project locations to identify where modern slavery risks may appear. Where risks are identified, we apply proportionate mitigation measures including enhanced due diligence, contractual protections and targeted training for supervisors and operatives. We publish clear behavioural expectations for suppliers, and we require evidence of lawful employment practices before onboarding partners.
We operate a programme of supplier audits and checks to ensure compliance throughout our supply chain. Audits include documentary review and, where necessary, on-site visits to verify payroll records, right-to-work documentation and working conditions. Audit findings influence our supplier rating system and determine whether a supplier is approved, placed under improvement conditions, or disengaged. The supplier audit process is central to our commitment to ethical procurement and responsible sourcing for all Edmonton flat clearance services.
To support transparency and ensure concerns are addressed promptly, we maintain multiple secure reporting channels for employees, contractors and third parties. Reports can be made confidentially and without fear of reprisal. All reports are treated seriously and investigated by senior management. We employ a case management approach to ensure allegations are assessed, investigations are thorough and corrective actions are implemented, including referral to appropriate authorities when required.
Training and awareness are critical components of our programme. We provide regular training for staff involved in flat clearance in Edmonton to help them recognise signs of exploitation and to understand the correct steps to take if they suspect modern slavery. Managers receive specialist training on supplier due diligence and investigative procedures to support consistent implementation of policy across job sites and projects.
We also use contractual requirements to reinforce expectations. All supplier contracts include clauses that prohibit forced labour and require compliance with applicable employment and immigration laws. Suppliers must notify us of any suspected breaches and cooperate with audits and remediation plans. Failure to comply may result in termination of contracts and suspension from tendering for future Edmonton clearance work.
Our performance is monitored through key performance indicators that include audit completion rates, training uptake and the number of verified incidents and remediations. We publish performance summaries internally to ensure senior leadership oversight and continuous improvement. Where deficiencies are found, we develop targeted corrective action plans and monitor their implementation to closure.
