Shoreditch, located in London's East End, has seen a remarkable transformation over the past few...
This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps taken by Rubbish Clearance Shoreditch to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. We are committed to conducting our business responsibly, ethically, and in full compliance with applicable laws and recognised labour standards.
Rubbish Clearance Shoreditch has a zero tolerance policy towards all forms of modern slavery, including forced labour, servitude, child labour, bonded labour, and human trafficking. This policy applies to everyone working for or on behalf of our business, regardless of location or role.
We expect the same high standards from all of our suppliers, subcontractors, and business partners. Any breach or suspected breach of this policy is treated seriously and may result in the termination of contracts, removal from approved supplier lists, and, where appropriate, reporting to the relevant authorities.
Rubbish Clearance Shoreditch provides waste removal and rubbish clearance services in Shoreditch and surrounding areas. Our operations rely on a network of suppliers and subcontractors, including labour providers, vehicle and equipment suppliers, recycling and disposal facilities, and providers of uniforms and protective equipment.
We recognise that modern slavery risks can arise in supply chains involving low-skilled labour, waste handling, logistics, and the manufacture of workwear and equipment. We are committed to identifying and addressing these risks in a proactive and transparent manner.
We require our suppliers and subcontractors to comply with all applicable employment laws, including legislation relating to minimum wage, working hours, health and safety, and the prohibition of forced and child labour. Our standard terms of business incorporate clear expectations on ethical conduct and labour practices.
Where we identify higher risk categories, such as labour provision, waste processing, or imported goods, we may conduct audits or request evidence to verify compliance. These checks can include on-site inspections, document reviews, and confirmation of right-to-work processes. Failure to cooperate with our due diligence or to meet our standards may lead to corrective action or the ending of the business relationship.
Responsibility for implementing this statement rests with the senior management team of Rubbish Clearance Shoreditch. Managers are responsible for communicating expectations to their teams and suppliers and for escalating any concerns that arise.
Employees whose roles involve procurement, supplier management, or supervision of frontline teams receive guidance on recognising signs of modern slavery and how to report concerns safely. We aim to build awareness throughout the business so that modern slavery risks are identified early and addressed promptly.
All employees, agency workers, contractors, and suppliers are encouraged to report any concerns about modern slavery or unethical labour practices connected to our business or supply chain. Concerns can be raised directly with line managers or with a senior manager within the company.
Reports can be made confidentially, and we will take all concerns seriously. We do not tolerate victimisation or retaliation against anyone who raises a concern in good faith. Any allegation will be investigated and, where appropriate, may be escalated to external authorities.
Rubbish Clearance Shoreditch is committed to continuous improvement in the prevention of modern slavery. We will review this statement at least once every twelve months, or sooner if required by changes in legislation, our business operations, or our understanding of the risks in our supply chains.
The annual review will consider the effectiveness of our actions, the outcome of any audits or investigations, feedback from workers and suppliers, and any incidents or concerns raised during the year. Where necessary, we will update our policies, enhance our due diligence, and strengthen our training and communication to ensure our approach remains robust and effective.
This statement reflects the commitment of Rubbish Clearance Shoreditch to uphold human rights, protect vulnerable workers, and conduct business with integrity at all times.
