Modern Slavery Statement — Lawn Mowing Chislehurst

Lawn Mowing Chislehurst is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking within our operations and supply chain. This statement sets out our approach across Chislehurst lawn mowing and related lawncare services. We operate a zero-tolerance policy to any form of modern slavery, forced labour, or exploitative practices, and expect the same high standards from contractors, suppliers and partners used in our lawn mowing in Chislehurst work.

Our policy applies to all employees and temporary workers engaged by Lawn Mowing Chislehurst and to those acting on our behalf. We ensure our staff receive regular training, and we maintain clear contractual obligations that require compliance with anti-slavery laws. We use due diligence processes when engaging new providers, and we require suppliers to confirm they uphold equivalent standards.

The company has instituted explicit procedures for identifying and addressing potential risks. In Chislehurst lawn mowing operations, risk factors include seasonal labour, subcontracted crews, and cross-border supply of equipment or materials. Our measures include staff vetting, identity checks where lawful and appropriate, and mandatory reporting of any concerns. We make clear the consequences of breach: disciplinary action up to and including termination and termination of supplier relationships.

We conduct supplier audits and proactive supplier engagement to reduce the risk of modern slavery entering our supply chain. Supplier audits focus on payroll practices, working hours, freedom of movement, and the terms under which workers are employed. For providers offering grounds maintenance, machinery hire or planting materials used in our Chislehurst lawncare and garden services, we require documented evidence of lawful employment.

Our supplier audit programme includes on-site visits where feasible and third-party verifications for higher-risk suppliers. Audit criteria include supplier policies, payroll records, recruitment procedures and worker interviews. We treat audit outcomes seriously: non-compliance prompts corrective action plans, repeated failures result in supplier withdrawal. To make audits effective we maintain a risk-based approach proportional to the size and nature of the supplier relationship.

Key elements evaluated during supplier audits are summarized below:

• Proof of lawful right to work and recruitment transparency
• Fair wage and timely payment practices
• No retention of identity documents or unlawful restrictions on movement

Our reporting channels are designed to be accessible, confidential and secure.

Reporting and Whistleblowing

We encourage any worker, contractor or third party who suspects modern slavery within our Chislehurst lawn mowing services to raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Reports may be made through internal channels or through designated anonymous mechanisms maintained for this purpose. Everyone who reports in good faith will be supported and protected.

Incident response and investigations

All reports are logged, triaged and, where warranted, investigated promptly by trained personnel. Investigations may involve HR, legal and external specialists. We adopt a victim-centred approach and will cooperate with law enforcement or regulatory authorities when required. Confidentiality is respected throughout, and corrective actions are tracked to completion.

Annual review and continuous improvement — Lawn Mowing Chislehurst reviews this statement and our anti-slavery measures at least once a year. The annual review assesses the effectiveness of supplier audits, staff training, reporting uptake and remediation outcomes. We use findings to strengthen policies, update training materials and refine our supplier due diligence. Our commitment is ongoing: we aim to prevent exploitation across all aspects of our Chislehurst lawncare operations and to promote ethical practices in the local and extended supply chain.
