Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement — Flat Clearance Kensington

This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the commitment of Flat Clearance Kensington and its associated operations to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in any part of our business, including contractors and supply chains. We recognise our responsibility to ensure that our flat clearance in Kensington, Kensington flat clearance services and related activities are conducted ethically, lawfully and transparently. This statement outlines our zero-tolerance approach, supplier oversight, reporting channels and the process for an annual review to maintain continuous improvement.

We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of forced labour, servitude, human trafficking, or exploitation in our workforce and among our partners. Our Kensington flat clearance teams and suppliers are expected to comply with all applicable laws and to abide by our code of conduct. Flat removal and clearance operations are assessed against strict standards to prevent exploitation, and everyone engaged by Flat Clearance Kensington must adhere to expected labour and ethical practices. Any breach of this policy will trigger immediate action.

To ensure compliance, we conduct robust supplier audits and third-party checks as an integral part of our procurement and contractor management processes. Audit processes include:

• Verification of recruitment and employment records to detect coercive or irregular hiring practices;
• On-site audits and remote assessments of supply chain partners involved in flat clearance services in Kensington and wider operations;
• Risk-based checks focusing on high-risk suppliers, seasonal workers, subcontractors and transport partners;
• Requirements for corrective action plans where issues are identified and follow-up inspections until remediation is verified.

Reporting Channels and Protected Whistleblowing

Flat Clearance Kensington maintains clear, accessible and confidential reporting channels for employees, contractors, suppliers and members of the public to raise concerns about suspected modern slavery or unethical conduct. We encourage internal reporting and provide multiple secure routes: anonymous hotlines operated by third parties, designated compliance contacts and an established escalation process. Reports are treated with confidentiality and respect, investigations are prompt and impartial, and we commit to protection from retaliation for good faith whistleblowers. Anyone observing signs of exploitation in flat clearance operations — for example, unusually controlled workers, withheld pay, or restricted movement — should report via the approved channels.

Supply Chain Due Diligence

Our supplier due diligence is risk-based and proportionate to the nature and scale of the relationship. We require contractual commitments to ethical labour standards from suppliers engaged in flat clearance in Kensington, including obligations to permit audits, provide transparency over recruitment and payroll, and implement appropriate worker grievance mechanisms. Training and awareness-raising are provided for procurement and operational teams so that risks can be identified early. Corrective measures and, where necessary, termination of contracts are enacted if remediation is inadequate.

Accountability and continuous improvement are central to our approach. This statement is reviewed on an annual basis by senior management and the board of Flat Clearance Kensington to assess the effectiveness of our policies, audits, training and reporting mechanisms. The annual review examines audit outcomes, incident reports, supplier performance, and evolving legal or sector-specific risks. Based on findings, we update policies, enhance supplier engagement, refine audit scopes and increase training for staff and partners.
