Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

Rubbish Clearance Mayfair is committed to conducting its business with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement sets out the steps we take to identify, prevent, and address modern slavery and human trafficking risks within our operations and supply chains. It applies to all employees, workers, contractors, and suppliers engaged by Rubbish Clearance Mayfair.

Our Zero-Tolerance Approach

Rubbish Clearance Mayfair maintains a strict zero-tolerance policy towards all forms of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child labour. We do not accept or condone any practice that exploits individuals or undermines their fundamental rights and freedoms. Every person working for or with us is expected to uphold this commitment and to act ethically and lawfully in all business dealings.

All members of staff, from management to frontline operatives, are reminded that compliance with this policy is a condition of working with Rubbish Clearance Mayfair. Any breach, or suspected breach, of this policy may lead to disciplinary action, including termination of employment or contract, and may be reported to the relevant authorities where appropriate.

Our Supply Chain and Supplier Standards

Our operations rely on a network of suppliers and subcontractors providing services, vehicles, equipment, uniforms, and waste processing facilities. We recognise that risks of modern slavery can be present in these supply chains, particularly where multiple tiers of sourcing and labour are involved.

Rubbish Clearance Mayfair requires all suppliers to comply with applicable labour, employment, and human rights laws and to adhere to ethical standards that align with our own. We expect suppliers to ensure that their own workers are employed voluntarily, are of legal working age, and work in safe conditions, and that they receive fair pay and appropriate rest periods.

Supplier Audits and Due Diligence

We carry out proportionate due diligence on our key suppliers and subcontractors. This includes assessing the nature of their operations, their approach to labour management, and the countries and sectors in which they operate. Where appropriate, we request information and documentation relating to employment practices, worker welfare, and policies on modern slavery.

Rubbish Clearance Mayfair reserves the right to conduct audits of suppliers, either directly or through third parties, to verify compliance with our expectations. Where findings indicate a risk of modern slavery or related abuses, we will work with the supplier to develop corrective actions and timeframes. If a supplier is unwilling or unable to address serious concerns, we may suspend or terminate our relationship with that supplier.

Training, Awareness, and Reporting Channels

We are committed to raising awareness of modern slavery risks among our employees and managers so that they are able to recognise warning signs and respond appropriately. Training and guidance are provided to relevant staff, particularly those involved in procurement, supplier management, and recruitment.

Rubbish Clearance Mayfair encourages anyone working for us, or on our behalf, to report concerns about possible modern slavery or human trafficking in our operations or supply chains. Concerns may be raised with a line manager, a senior manager, or directly with the company directors. Reports can be made confidentially, and we will treat all concerns seriously, investigate promptly, and protect individuals who raise concerns in good faith from any form of retaliation.

Continuous Improvement and Annual Review

We recognise that combating modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility. Rubbish Clearance Mayfair is committed to continually improving its practices and controls to better identify and address modern slavery risks. This includes reviewing our supplier selection processes, contractual terms, and internal training programmes on a regular basis.

This Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement is reviewed annually by the company directors to ensure it remains effective, relevant, and aligned with current legislation and best practice. Where necessary, the statement and associated procedures will be updated to reflect changes in law, guidance, or our business activities. The directors of Rubbish Clearance Mayfair take overall responsibility for implementing this statement and for ensuring that appropriate resources are made available to uphold our zero-tolerance approach.
