Modern Slavery Statement — Flat Clearance Kilburn
Flat Clearance Kilburn is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms across our operations and supply chain. We maintain a clear, unwavering stance against exploitation and forced labour. This statement applies to all staff, contractors and partners involved in our Kilburn flat clearance and removal activities, and it outlines our policies, controls and commitments to continuous improvement.
Zero-tolerance policy
Our company operates a zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery. Any instance of forced labour, human trafficking, or exploitative working conditions discovered within our Kilburn flat clearances or in the wider flat clearance Kilburn network will result in immediate investigation and decisive action. We will terminate relationships with suppliers or contractors found to be engaging in or facilitating such practices and will cooperate with relevant authorities where appropriate.
All members of our team are required to adhere to this policy; compliance is embedded in job descriptions, contractor agreements and procurement processes. Flat clearance in Kilburn is performed under standards that protect basic worker rights, ensure freedom of movement and prohibit debt bondage, child labour and other coercive practices.
Supplier Expectations and Risk Assessment
We expect suppliers and sub-contractors to respect human rights and to demonstrate proactive measures to prevent slavery. Our vetting includes documented assurances, contractual clauses and risk screening tailored to the nature of the services provided to our Kilburn flat clearance activities. We use a risk-based approach to prioritise audit and monitoring efforts where vulnerability is highest.
Supplier audits and monitoring
Audits form a key part of our supplier assurance programme. Where risk indicators are present, we undertake:- Documentary checks on employment records and payroll practices
- On-site inspections and worker interviews
- Review of recruitment, subcontracting and labour supply arrangements
- Verification of working hours, wage records and accommodation where applicable
These audit activities are designed to identify, remediate and prevent modern slavery across the supply chain supporting Kilburn flat clearances and other services.
Corrective action plans are mandatory where non-compliance is found. We work with suppliers to implement remediation within an agreed timeframe; persistent failures trigger contract termination.
Reporting channels and whistleblowing
We provide multiple safe and confidential reporting channels for workers, contractors and third parties to raise concerns related to modern slavery. Reports can be made anonymously where desired and will be investigated promptly and impartially. Retaliation against reporters is strictly prohibited and treated as a breach of our zero-tolerance standard.
How we respond
Upon receiving a credible report, we will:- Initiate an immediate risk assessment
- Protect affected individuals and secure evidence
- Engage specialist support where necessary
- Ensure remediation, including safe passage, medical or legal help where required
These measures apply equally to those working within our Kilburn flat clearance teams and across our contractor network.
Training and awareness are central to prevention. We provide regular training for staff and relevant contractors on recognising signs of modern slavery and how to use reporting channels. Training emphasises the obligations for anyone managing Kilburn flat clearance projects to act promptly and responsibly.
Annual review and continuous improvement
We conduct an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement, supplier performance, audit outcomes and the effectiveness of reporting mechanisms. The review includes updates to policies, additional training where gaps are identified, and a refreshed risk assessment for our flat clearances in Kilburn and surrounding operations. The results of the annual review inform senior management actions and strategic planning to further reduce the risk of modern slavery.
By maintaining transparent policies, strong supplier controls and accessible reporting channels, Flat Clearance Kilburn reaffirms its commitment to ethical operations and the protection of human rights across all aspects of its services, from Kilburn flat clearance to broader clearance projects. We will continue to monitor, report and improve our practices to ensure that exploitation has no place in our operations.
