Modern Slavery Statement — Gardening Services Euston

Gardening Services Euston is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all areas of its operations. This statement sets out our unequivocal zero-tolerance policy toward forced labour, bonded work, child labour and any form of exploitation across our workforce and supply chain. As a provider of Euston gardening services and garden maintenance Euston clients rely on, we recognise our responsibility to protect vulnerable workers and ensure ethical practices.

Our policy applies to every person who works for or on behalf of Gardening Services Euston, including direct employees, subcontractors and suppliers. We operate across multiple sites and deliver a range of garden services in Euston; therefore we apply consistent standards in recruitment, contracting and day-to-day management. All staff are made aware that compliance is mandatory and that breaches will result in prompt investigation and appropriate action.

We maintain robust supplier due diligence and supplier audits to mitigate risks. Our approach to supplier management includes:

• Screening of new suppliers for risks related to modern slavery;
• Contract clauses that require compliance with our anti-slavery standards;
• Periodic on-site and remote audits to verify working conditions, documentation and subcontracting practices.

We invest in training for all staff engaged in garden maintenance Euston projects to recognise signs of exploitation and to understand safe recruitment practices. Managers receive enhanced instruction on how to conduct vetting, verify right-to-work documentation and how to respond to suspected abuses. Recruitment partners are expected to follow ethical recruitment principles; third-party labour providers must demonstrate the absence of recruitment fees.

Our reporting channels are designed to be accessible, confidential and safe. Workers and members of the public can raise concerns without fear of retaliation through anonymous reporting systems, internal reporting to designated officers, and escalation to senior management where appropriate. We explicitly encourage the use of protected reporting routes, and we monitor reports to ensure timely investigation and corrective action. All reports are treated seriously and investigated impartially.

Where evidence of modern slavery is found, Gardening Services Euston will act immediately to protect victims, suspend involved personnel, and initiate remediation in partnership with specialist agencies. We also work collaboratively with suppliers to implement corrective plans and, where necessary, terminate relationships with persistent non-compliant partners.

Our supplier audit programme for Euston garden services includes scheduled and unannounced assessments. Audits assess payroll practices, working hours, living conditions (where applicable), and subcontracting chains. We require suppliers to maintain transparent records and to cooperate fully with investigations. Remediation is documented and tracked until satisfactory outcomes are achieved.

We uphold a clear zero-tolerance position: any confirmed instance of modern slavery results in immediate remedial action and could lead to termination of contracts and referral to authorities. We apply proportionate disciplinary measures internally, and we seek to support affected individuals through safe exit strategies, access to support services and, where possible, alternative employment that meets legal standards.

An annual review of our policies, training, risk assessments and supplier performance is carried out by senior management to evaluate effectiveness and to drive continuous improvement. This review informs updates to our prevention strategies and ensures that Gardening Services Euston remains aligned with best practice and legal obligations. The outcomes of these reviews are used to refine our audit schedules, enhance training materials and strengthen contractual clauses with suppliers.
