Get a quoteRubbish Clearance Dulwich is committed to conducting all aspects of our operations ethically, responsibly, and in full compliance with applicable laws. This Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement outlines the steps we take to prevent modern slavery, forced labour, and human trafficking within our business and supply chains.
Rubbish Clearance Dulwich provides waste removal and rubbish clearance services to residential, commercial, and public sector clients. Our operations rely on a network of suppliers and contractors that may provide vehicles, equipment, waste transfer services, recycling facilities, protective clothing, and labour support. We recognise that risks can arise at multiple points in the supply chain, particularly in sectors involving manual labour, transport, and waste processing.
We operate a clear zero-tolerance stance towards all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking. This applies to our own activities and to everyone who works on our behalf. We will not knowingly engage with any supplier, contractor, or business partner that is involved in, or turns a blind eye to, exploitation, forced labour, servitude, debt bondage, child labour, or human trafficking.
Our managers and supervisors are responsible for upholding this policy in their areas of control and ensuring that staff and suppliers understand our expectations. Any breach of this policy is treated as a serious matter and may result in termination of contracts or employment and, where necessary, referral to the relevant authorities.
We seek to build long-term relationships with suppliers and contractors who share our commitment to ethical conduct. As part of our due diligence process, we assess the risk of modern slavery in our supply base and implement proportionate controls. These include verifying business credentials, checking references where appropriate, and seeking assurance that suppliers comply with relevant labour and human rights standards.
Where we identify higher-risk activities or geographies, we may conduct more detailed desk-based reviews, request additional documentation, or carry out site visits. We reserve the right to conduct supplier audits focusing on working conditions, recruitment practices, and subcontracting arrangements. If significant concerns are identified, we will work with the supplier on corrective action plans or discontinue the relationship if improvements are not made within agreed timescales.
We expect everyone working for or with Rubbish Clearance Dulwich to support the prevention of modern slavery. Managers are briefed on the key indicators of exploitation, such as restricted freedom of movement, retention of identity documents, signs of coercion, or unusual wage arrangements. Operational staff are encouraged to be vigilant and to report any concerns immediately.
We maintain clear internal reporting channels so that employees, contractors, and other stakeholders can raise suspicions or concerns about modern slavery in confidence. Reports can be made to line managers, senior management, or designated points of contact within the business. We will investigate all reports promptly and sensitively, take appropriate action, and protect anyone who raises concerns in good faith from victimisation or retaliation.
Rubbish Clearance Dulwich recognises that combating modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility. We are committed to continually improving our systems, due diligence processes, and staff awareness to better identify and manage potential risks. Lessons learned from audits, investigations, and feedback are used to strengthen our controls and refine our approach.
This Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement is reviewed at least once every 12 months to ensure it remains accurate, effective, and aligned with relevant legislation and best practice. The review considers changes in our business operations, supply chains, and risk environment. Any necessary updates are approved by senior management and communicated internally and externally as appropriate.
By maintaining a zero-tolerance approach, robust supplier oversight, clear reporting channels, and a commitment to continuous improvement, Rubbish Clearance Dulwich aims to play its part in the wider effort to eradicate modern slavery and human trafficking.
