Modern Slavery Statement — Business Waste Removal Norbiton Commitment

Business Waste Removal Norbiton is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all of our operations and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our business or supply chains. This statement sets out our zero-tolerance approach and the concrete steps we take across business waste removal in Norbiton and related services.

We maintain a zero-tolerance policy on modern slavery, forced labour, human trafficking and any form of exploitation. Our policy applies to all employees, contractors and suppliers engaged in commercial waste collection, recycling and Norbiton business waste removal projects. The policy is conveyed through induction, contractor briefings and mandatory training for staff with procurement or site management responsibilities.

Supplier Standards and Due Diligence

Our procurement procedures require suppliers to confirm compliance with modern slavery laws and to adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct. We perform risk-based due diligence prior to appointing new partners for commercial rubbish removal and ongoing engagements. Where risk indicators are identified, we escalate to targeted audits and enhanced checks to validate working conditions and contractual practices.

Supplier Audits and Monitoring

We operate a formal audit programme for high-risk suppliers providing business waste removal services in Norbiton and the wider London boroughs. Audits may be desk-based or on-site and evaluate payroll records, working hours, right-to-work evidence and health and safety compliance. Findings are documented and addressed in corrective action plans with defined timescales.

Our audit approach is pragmatic and aims to continuously improve standards through collaborative engagement. If a supplier fails to remedy serious issues in an agreed timeframe, we will suspend or terminate the relationship. This underscores our commitment to prevent exploitation in the supply chain for any commercial waste removal activity.

Key monitoring activities include:

• Periodic contract reviews and risk assessments for Norbiton commercial waste services;
• Random site inspections and worker interviews when warranted;
• Verification of onward subcontracting arrangements and labour providers.

We provide secure and anonymous reporting channels for workers, contractors and the public to raise concerns about suspected modern slavery or unethical labour practices. These channels are clearly communicated to staff and supply partners and include internal whistleblowing routes and confidential escalation to senior management. Reports are acted upon promptly, investigated thoroughly and recorded in a central case management log.

Response and Remediation — When an allegation is substantiated, we apply proportionate remediation measures focused on the welfare of affected individuals, which may include assistance with safe relocation, medical care and support to access legal and social services. Remediation is guided by the principle of minimizing harm while ensuring responsible contractual outcomes with suppliers.

Training and Awareness — All staff involved in procurement, site supervision and transport of business waste removal services receive targeted training on modern slavery indicators, reporting procedures and ethical procurement practices. We encourage a culture where raising concerns is supported and free from retaliation.

Continuous Improvement and Annual Review — Our approach is subject to continuous improvement. We review this Modern Slavery Statement and related controls at least annually to reflect changes in our business activities, supplier base and evolving legal obligations relevant to Norbiton commercial waste removal. The annual review assesses effectiveness of audits, training uptake, reported incidents and remediation outcomes.

We will update policies, supplier assessment criteria and contract clauses as needed to strengthen prevention and mitigation measures. The review process involves procurement, operations, compliance and senior leadership to ensure accountability and alignment with our corporate ethics.

Conclusion — Business Waste Removal Norbiton recognises the responsibility we carry to prevent modern slavery within our operations and across our supply chains. Through a clear zero-tolerance stance, diligent supplier audits, accessible reporting channels and a structured annual review cycle, we commit to reducing the risk of exploitation associated with commercial waste management in Norbiton and surrounding areas.
