Modern Slavery Statement — Flat Clearance Kingston

Flat Clearance Kingston is committed to the highest standards of ethical conduct. We operate a clear zero-tolerance policy toward any form of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour or exploitation in our operations and supply chain. This statement sets out how our company, including our Kingston flat clearance services and related operations, identifies, prevents and responds to risks of modern slavery.

Our Zero-Tolerance Policy

We declare a zero-tolerance position on modern slavery across all Flat Clearance Kingston activities. All staff, contractors and suppliers are expected to comply with our policy. Any breach will lead to immediate action, including termination of relationships and legal referral where appropriate. Our leadership team enforces standards that protect workers' rights and dignity.

Supply Chain and Supplier Audits

We recognise that risks may arise through third-party suppliers used in flat clearance and property clearance projects in Kingston and beyond. To mitigate these risks we:

• Require suppliers to acknowledge and abide by our anti-slavery policy.
• Conduct periodic supplier audits, including site visits and documentation reviews.
• Use risk-based checks to prioritise higher-risk partners for enhanced scrutiny.

Due Diligence and Monitoring

Our due diligence process for Kingston flat clearance engagements includes background checks, contractual clauses, and ongoing monitoring. We assess recruitment practices, working conditions and subcontractor relationships. Where issues are identified, we demand corrective action plans and will suspend or terminate contracts if remediation fails.

Reporting Channels and Confidentiality

We provide multiple confidential routes for raising concerns about modern slavery without fear of retaliation. Reporting channels include internal reporting to managers, a dedicated compliance inbox, and escalation to senior leadership. Reports are handled sensitively and promptly; we ensure confidentiality and protection for whistleblowers where possible. Employees and third parties are encouraged to report suspected violations.

Investigation, Remediation and Training

Allegations of slavery or trafficking are investigated by trained personnel. Investigations follow clear protocols to gather facts, protect victims and ensure fair treatment. Remediation actions can include support for affected workers, contract termination and coordination with enforcement agencies. All operational staff and supervisors in the flat clearance team receive periodic training on recognising signs of exploitation and the correct reporting procedures.

Supplier Standards and Continuous Improvement

Our supplier requirements for flat-clearance Kingston services are embedded in contracts and procurement processes. We use risk-based audits, supplier declarations and performance reviews to maintain standards. Where appropriate, we engage suppliers in capacity building to improve labour practices and compliance with ethical sourcing principles.

Annual Review and Accountability

We commit to an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and our anti-slavery measures. The review evaluates the effectiveness of supplier audits, reporting mechanisms, training outcomes and any remediation activities undertaken in the previous year. Findings drive continuous improvement and inform updates to policies and procedures across Flat Clearance Kingston operations.

Leadership Commitment and Public Assurance

Our leadership remains unequivocal: modern slavery has no place in our business. We will continue to strengthen prevention, detection and response activities across Kingston flat clearance projects and the wider supply chain. Regular training, supplier engagement and transparent reporting underpin our approach. We reaffirm our commitment to protecting human rights and upholding ethical standards in all Flat Clearance Kingston services.
