Modern Slavery Statement — Removal Company London

Removal Company London confirms its unequivocal stance against modern slavery and human trafficking. As a London removal company we operate a zero-tolerance policy across every part of our business and supply chain. We strongly expect all partners, contractors and staff to comply with this position: exploitation, forced labour or any form of coerced work will not be tolerated. This statement explains our approach, the steps we take and our ongoing commitments to prevent slavery and human trafficking in our operations and those of our suppliers.

Our core values as a removal company in London require clear governance and proactive measures. We have embedded anti-slavery obligations into our policies, employment contracts and procurement standards. The board has endorsed this statement and ensures resources are allocated to due diligence, training and reporting. We publish this statement annually and maintain a visible line of accountability to ensure that our zero-tolerance approach is not merely aspirational but enforced through practical actions and measurable outcomes.

We conduct regular supplier due diligence and risk assessments to identify areas where the risk of modern slavery may be higher. As a London removals company, our supplier audits focus on recruitment practices, working hours, wage payments and the use of third-party labour providers. Our audit programme includes documentation checks, on-site inspections and worker interviews where appropriate. Any identified issues must be resolved by corrective action plans and failure to remediate serious non-compliance will result in termination of the supplier relationship.

Policies, Training and Supplier Audits

We operate an integrated set of policies that reinforce our commitment to preventing modern slavery. All employees receive training on recognising signs of exploitation and the proper channels to raise concerns. Managers and procurement teams receive additional guidance on carrying out supplier assessments and interpreting audit findings. Our training is updated regularly to reflect emerging risks and legal developments applicable to a removals company in London and the wider logistics sector.

We maintain a structured supplier audit cycle, prioritising higher-risk suppliers for more frequent review. Audit criteria include employment documentation, subcontracting arrangements, and grievance procedures. Where audits reveal gaps, we work with suppliers to implement improvement plans within defined timeframes. This ongoing supplier management process demonstrates our practical commitment to preventing forced labour and protecting workers throughout the supply chain of the removal services London industry.

Key elements of our supplier oversight include:

• Contract clauses mandating adherence to anti-slavery standards
• Periodic supplier risk profiling and on-site verification
• Requirement for suppliers to cascade standards to subcontractors

Reporting Channels, Worker Protections and Annual Review

We provide confidential and accessible reporting channels for employees and contractors to report concerns without fear of retaliation. Reports can be made through anonymous internal hotlines, via line managers, or through a designated compliance officer. All credible allegations are investigated promptly and objectively. We protect whistleblowers and ensure that any individual raising concerns in good faith will not be penalised by this removals company London.

To further strengthen protections, we require our suppliers to maintain their own grievance mechanisms and to cooperate with investigations. We actively encourage suppliers to adopt transparent recruitment practices, prohibit recruitment fees, and ensure that workers retain control of identity documents. These measures reduce the risk of forced labour and align with international best practice for a removal company in London and beyond.

We commit to an annual review of our Modern Slavery Statement and related policies. This review assesses the effectiveness of training, audits, remediation efforts and reporting channels. It includes stakeholder feedback, audit outcomes and a refreshed risk assessment of the supply chain. Findings from the annual review inform continuous improvement actions and updates to governance arrangements, ensuring our anti-slavery response evolves with changing risks in the removals and logistics sector.
