Modern Slavery Statement — Commercial Waste Removal Regents Park

Commercial Waste Removal Regents Park is unwavering in its commitment to a zero-tolerance policy on modern slavery and human trafficking across all operations. This statement explains how our regents park commercial waste removal services identify, prevent and respond to risks of exploitation. We apply stringent standards to recruitment, working conditions and subcontractor arrangements to ensure fair treatment of every person engaged in our value chain.

Our Commitment and Scope

We take a proactive stance across commercial waste removal in Regents Park and associated logistics activities. Our policy applies to direct employees, agency workers, contractors and suppliers. We require contractual assurances that prohibit forced labour, debt bondage and any recruitment practices that transfer costs to workers. Compliance with these requirements is mandatory and forms part of supplier selection and contract renewal criteria.

We maintain a structured, risk-based approach to supplier management to safeguard against modern slavery. Our approach includes:

• Pre-contract screening and documentation checks to validate labour standards and legal employment status
• Periodic supplier audits focused on payroll, recruitment fees, retention of identity documents and living conditions
• Targeted training for procurement teams and on-site supervisors to recognise indicators of exploitation

Supplier Audits and Due Diligence

Supplier audits are central to our prevention strategy. Audits for regents park commercial waste removal partners evaluate compliance with labour laws, use of subcontractors, and the integrity of recruitment processes. Where possible, we combine self-assessments with on-site inspections and independent third-party verification. Findings are recorded, remediated on a timeline and escalated if they reveal systemic or severe breaches.

Audit intensity is tailored by risk level: high-risk suppliers receive more frequent reviews, while lower-risk suppliers are monitored through documentation and performance indicators. Non-compliance triggers corrective action plans, contractual sanctions or, in persistent cases, termination of supply. We prioritise remediation that protects workers and prevents recurrence.

Robust reporting channels underpin our response framework. Multiple secure routes allow workers, contractors and third parties to report concerns about modern slavery affecting commercial waste removal operations. Reports may be submitted anonymously, through internal hotlines or via designated compliance contacts. All reports are handled confidentially and investigated thoroughly, with findings used to improve controls and supplier performance.

Protection for reporters and potential victims is a core principle. We enforce anti-retaliation measures, ensure safe case handling and provide access to remedies where exploitation is identified. Investigations follow a documented process that considers the welfare of affected individuals, legal obligations and opportunities for remediation in partnership with relevant authorities.

Training, governance and accountability are embedded at all levels of the business. Staff and contractor managers involved in regents park commercial waste removal receive mandatory training on recognising and reporting modern slavery. Senior management and the board oversee compliance through regular reporting, ensuring that responsibility for prevention and remediation remains visible and resourced.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement — This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed at least once every 12 months. The annual review assesses audit outcomes, incident trends, effectiveness of reporting channels and evolving legal or sector guidance. Results inform updates to policy, supplier engagement strategies and training content. We are committed to continuous improvement and to publishing future updates that reflect progress in tackling modern slavery across our commercial waste removal services in Regents Park.
