Modern Slavery Statement for Golders Green House Clearance

Golders Green House Clearance is committed to preventing modern slavery, forced labour and human trafficking across all aspects of our operations and supply chains. This statement explains our policies and actions to ensure that our Golders Green house clearance activities and related services are free from exploitation. We apply a zero-tolerance policy to any form of slavery or exploitation and make clear that compliance with legal and ethical labour standards is a non-negotiable requirement for all engagements.

We take a proactive stance: all staff are trained to recognise signs of coercion, debt bondage and other abuses, and managers are accountable for enforcing standards in every job we undertake. Our zero-tolerance policy is supported by written procedures, staff briefings and contractual obligations for partners. Golders Green clearance services are delivered with respect for human rights, fair pay and safe conditions for workers and contractors.

Our corporate code of conduct sets the expectations for behaviour and labour standards. These obligations are enforced through operational oversight, performance reviews and disciplinary measures where necessary. We require everyone involved in house clearance in Golders Green to adhere to the same principles, whether direct employees, subcontractors or suppliers.

Supplier Management, Screening and Audits

We apply rigorous supplier due diligence before onboarding third parties. Prospective suppliers for house clearance Golders Green work must demonstrate lawful employment practices, legitimate business registration, and transparent payroll processes. Contract clauses explicitly prohibit exploitative practices and grant us the right to audit and terminate relationships if obligations are breached.

Regular supplier audits are a central control: these audits combine documentation reviews, interview techniques and, where appropriate, site visits to validate working conditions. Audits focus on wages, working hours, recruitment fees, identity verification and freedom of movement. Audit frequency is determined by risk assessment and may range from routine annual checks to intensified reviews when concerns arise.

Our supplier assurance measures include:

• Pre-engagement screening covering business legitimacy and labour policies;
• Documentation checks of contracts, payslips and working hour records;
• Worker interviews to confirm voluntary employment and acceptable conditions;
• Corrective action plans with clear milestones where non-compliance is found;
• Escalation and contract termination where remediation is inadequate.

Reporting Channels, Investigations and Annual Review

We maintain confidential reporting channels so employees, contractors and third parties can raise concerns without fear of reprisal. Reports are recorded, assessed and investigated by senior management in accordance with our procedures. We aim to ensure anonymity where requested and to protect whistleblowers from any form of retaliation. All allegations relating to modern slavery in our Golders Green clearance operations are taken seriously and are investigated promptly and impartially.

Our investigation process collects evidence, engages with affected individuals and, where appropriate, refers matters to external authorities. Remedial actions may include victim support, disciplinary steps for perpetrators, and systemic changes to procurement and operational practices. We collaborate with relevant agencies when required to secure the welfare of any affected workers and to ensure legal obligations are met.

This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed at least annually by senior leadership to evaluate effectiveness and to implement improvements. The annual review examines training uptake, the results of supplier audits, incident logs and the performance of reporting channels. Where gaps are identified we will update policies, enhance supplier engagement, expand auditing and refine our training to further reduce the risk of modern slavery in all Golders Green house clearance activities. We are committed to continuous improvement and to maintaining a transparent, robust approach to eradicating modern slavery across our business and supply chains.
