Modern Slavery Statement — House Clearance West Wickham Commitment

House Clearance West Wickham is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms across our operations and supply chain. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out how our house clearance services in West Wickham and surrounding areas approach risk, due diligence and remediation. We assert a zero-tolerance policy toward forced labour, child exploitation and any practices that violate human rights.

Our policy applies to every person engaged by house clearance west wickham, including temporary staff, contractors and suppliers. We require managers and operatives to act in accordance with our standards and to report any concerns immediately. This statement applies to all activities undertaken by the company and to the procurement of goods and services for house clearance in West Wickham.

We maintain a clear zero-tolerance position which means that any individual or supplier found to be complicit in modern slavery will face proportionate and decisive action, up to and including termination of contracts and referral to law enforcement. Our stance is: exploitation will not be tolerated, and transparency in our operations is essential to enforce that promise.

Due Diligence and Supplier Audits

We conduct regular supplier due diligence to assess and mitigate risks across our procurement of clearance equipment, removal services and waste disposal. Our approach includes pre-engagement checks and ongoing monitoring. Suppliers must confirm compliance with our standards and provide evidence of lawful employment practices. We prioritise working with partners who share our commitment to ethical practices in West Wickham house clearance work.

Supplier audits are a cornerstone of our prevention strategy. Audits include document review, site visits where appropriate and targeted questionnaires covering:

• Employment records and right-to-work verification
• Payroll practices and wage compliance
• Subcontractor management and recruitment channels

When audits identify non-conformances, we require prompt corrective actions and set timelines for improvement. Persistent or serious breaches result in contract termination and escalation to relevant authorities.

Reporting Channels, Training and Annual Review

We maintain multiple reporting channels so staff and third parties can raise concerns safely and confidentially. Reports are investigated by designated personnel and where necessary, referred to external agencies. Staff receive training to recognise indicators of modern slavery and to understand their responsibilities in escalating concerns. Training is refreshed regularly and forms part of induction for all new employees.

Our reporting process emphasises protection for whistleblowers and ensures there will be no retaliation for raising genuine concerns. We document investigations, corrective actions and outcomes to support continual improvement and accountability for all involved in West Wickham house-clearance operations.

This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually as part of our governance cycle to ensure effectiveness and to reflect changes in legislation, industry best practice and operational risk. The annual review considers audit findings, remediation effectiveness, training uptake and any reported incidents. We commit to revising policies and procedures as required to strengthen our response to modern slavery risks.
