Modern Slavery Statement — Office Clearance Bromley Commitment

Office Clearance Bromley is committed to a proactive stance against modern slavery and human trafficking across all aspects of our office clearance activities. This statement sets out our approach to preventing forced labour, exploitation and any form of coerced work within our operations and supply chains. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy and require all colleagues, partners and suppliers to share this commitment.

Our policy applies to every element of our Bromley office clearance work, including final disposal, recycling and rehoming of office furniture and equipment. Office clearance in Bromley must be conducted with respect for human rights and legal employment standards. We expect all sub-contractors and temporary labour to meet the same standards we set for our core team.

We operate a clear set of controls to enforce our policy. These include documented terms in contracts, verification of right-to-work, and clear expectations regarding hours, pay and working conditions for anyone supporting our office clearances Bromley clients. Staff are trained to identify potential signs of exploitation and to escalate concerns swiftly and securely.

Supplier Due Diligence and Scheduled Supplier Audits

We take supplier relationships seriously and perform structured due diligence before onboarding new partners. Our supplier audits are risk-based and include ongoing checks to ensure compliance with modern slavery standards. Audit activities may include:

• Document review for employment records, contracts and subcontractor agreements
• On-site visits and interviews with workers where practical
• Assessment of recruitment practices and labour providers

Failure to demonstrate acceptable controls and corrective action plans can lead to contractual termination. We also use audits to identify areas for improvement and to work collaboratively with suppliers to remediate issues.

Reporting Channels and Safe Escalation

We provide multiple reporting channels so that employees, subcontractors and third parties can raise concerns about suspected modern slavery. Reports can be made confidentially and will be investigated promptly. Our reporting mechanisms include:

• Internal compliance reporting to senior management
• Confidential whistleblowing route to our designated compliance lead
• Escalation to relevant authorities where criminal behaviour is suspected

We emphasise non-retaliation and protection for anyone reporting in good faith. All reports are treated seriously and, where appropriate, we will work with law enforcement and specialist organisations to ensure the safety and welfare of any potential victims.

Continuous improvement is integral to our approach. We monitor key performance indicators related to modern slavery risk, supplier compliance and training completion across our teams. Regular reviews help ensure our Bromley office clearance activities maintain high ethical standards and adapt to emerging risks.

Training for staff involved in office clearance operations, procurement and supply chain management is compulsory and refreshed regularly. Staff learn to spot indicators of exploitation, understand reporting routes and apply supplier audit findings in their day-to-day decisions. We also require that labour providers used for any office clearances demonstrate robust recruitment safeguards.

Annual review and governance: This statement is reviewed at least once every 12 months by our senior leadership team and governance committee to assess effectiveness and update policies, procedures and supplier controls where necessary. The review considers audit outcomes, reported incidents, training metrics and changes in legislation or risk profiles. Any material changes will be reflected in an updated statement to ensure ongoing alignment with best practice.
