Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

Finsbury Park Removals is committed to conducting its business with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement sets out the steps we take to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking from occurring within our own operations and throughout our supply chains.

We recognise that modern slavery is a serious global issue that can take many forms, including forced labour, servitude, human trafficking, and child labour. As a provider of removal and associated services, we are committed to identifying, mitigating, and addressing any risks of modern slavery linked to our activities.

Our Zero-Tolerance Policy

Finsbury Park Removals has a clear zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. We will not knowingly engage with any individual, organisation, or business that is involved in or complicit with such practices. We expect the same high standards from our employees, contractors, and all third parties we work with.

Our zero-tolerance policy is embedded in our internal procedures and forms part of our expectations for all those who represent us. Any breach or suspected breach of this policy is treated as a serious matter and may result in disciplinary action, termination of contracts, or referral to the appropriate authorities.

Our Business and Supply Chains

Our core business involves domestic and commercial removals, storage, packing, and related logistics services. To deliver these services, we engage a range of suppliers, including vehicle and equipment providers, storage facilities, subcontracted labour, and various professional and support services.

We acknowledge that certain areas of our supply chain, such as temporary labour and subcontracted services, may carry higher risks of labour exploitation. We are committed to ensuring that these risks are understood, monitored, and reduced through responsible sourcing and active oversight.

Supplier Standards and Audits

Finsbury Park Removals expects all suppliers and subcontractors to operate in full compliance with applicable labour, employment, and human rights laws. We communicate our zero-tolerance stance on modern slavery to key suppliers and make it clear that adherence to these standards is a condition of doing business with us.

We carry out proportionate checks on new and existing suppliers, which may include requesting information about their labour practices, policies, and training. Where we identify higher-risk relationships, we may conduct more detailed assessments or audits to review working conditions, recruitment practices, and evidence of right-to-work checks.

If a supplier is found to be in breach of our standards or unable to demonstrate adequate controls, we will work with them to address the issues within a reasonable timeframe. If meaningful improvement is not achieved, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate the relationship.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

We actively encourage the reporting of any concerns about modern slavery or unethical labour practices. Employees, contractors, and suppliers are expected to raise concerns at the earliest opportunity if they suspect that any person associated with our business or supply chain may be at risk.

Concerns can be raised internally through management channels or via our established whistleblowing procedures. Reports can be made confidentially, and individuals are assured that they will not suffer any detrimental treatment or retaliation as a result of raising a concern in good faith.

All reports are taken seriously and investigated promptly. Where appropriate, we will cooperate fully with law enforcement and other relevant bodies to ensure that any instance of modern slavery is addressed effectively.

Training, Awareness, and Continuous Improvement

We are committed to increasing awareness of modern slavery risks among our workforce, particularly those involved in recruitment, supplier management, and operational oversight. Training and guidance are provided as appropriate to help staff identify indicators of exploitation and understand the correct escalation routes.

We continuously review our procedures and seek opportunities to improve our approach, drawing on evolving best practice, industry guidance, and legislative developments. Our aim is to build resilience against modern slavery throughout our operations and to promote responsible practices across the wider removal services sector.

Review and Approval

This Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains accurate, effective, and aligned with our business activities and legal obligations. As part of the review, we consider any incidents reported, audit findings, changes in our supply chain, and feedback from stakeholders.

The statement has been approved by the leadership of Finsbury Park Removals, who are responsible for overseeing its implementation and ensuring that sufficient resources are allocated to support our commitments. It applies to the financial year to which it refers and will be updated and reissued each year as required.
