Modern Slavery Statement — House Clearance Chislehurst

House Clearance Chislehurst is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms across our operations and supply chains. Our zero-tolerance approach means we will not knowingly engage with suppliers, contractors or partners who exploit workers or permit forced labour. This statement explains our policies, the steps we take to identify and mitigate risk, and our ongoing commitments as a Chislehurst house clearance specialist.

We recognise that roles in waste removal, home clearance and property clearance can be vulnerable to exploitation without careful controls. We insist on transparency and expect the same standard from any business dealing with our home clearance Chislehurst services. Respect for human rights is embedded in our procurement and operational practices.

Zero-Tolerance Policy

Our zero-tolerance policy forbids all forms of modern slavery, including forced labour, debt bondage, human trafficking and exploitation. The policy applies to all employees, subcontractors and suppliers working with our Chislehurst house-clearance teams. Breaches are treated seriously and will result in termination of contracts and, where appropriate, reporting to the relevant authorities.

Due Diligence and Risk Assessment

We conduct risk assessments across the house clearance sector to identify high-risk activities and geographies. Our due diligence process covers recruitment practices, payment of wages, working hours and accommodation where applicable. For any domestic clearance project in Chislehurst or nearby, we evaluate third parties before engagement and monitor performance throughout the contract.

Supplier audits are a core part of our approach. We carry out supplier checks, site visits and documentation reviews to confirm compliance with our anti-slavery standards. Audits include verification of:

• employment contracts and right-to-work documentation,
• wage and payment records, and
• health and safety and worker welfare provisions.

Where concerns are identified during supplier audits for our house clearance Chislehurst operations, we implement corrective action plans and provide a timeframe for remediation. Persistent non-compliance results in contract termination and exclusion from future tenders.

We maintain accessible reporting channels so employees, contractors and external parties can raise concerns confidentially. Reports can be made through internal whistleblowing procedures and anonymous reporting mechanisms we operate for the Chislehurst home clearance service. All allegations are investigated promptly and sensitively, with appropriate protections for whistleblowers.

Training and awareness form part of our preventative measures. Staff and subcontractors involved in house clearance Chislehurst activities receive regular training on recognising signs of exploitation, safe recruitment practices and the proper use of reporting channels. Training materials are updated to reflect evolving risks and regulatory expectations.

Monitoring, Remedy and Annual Review

We review the effectiveness of this Modern Slavery Statement at least once every year. The annual review includes evaluation of supplier audit outcomes, incident reports, remediation actions and training completion rates. If modern slavery risks are identified, we take immediate remedial action, including supporting affected individuals, cooperating with authorities and revising controls to prevent recurrence.
