Modern Slavery Statement — Lawn Mowing Newham

Lawn Mowing Newham is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all areas of our operations and supply chain. We operate a strict zero-tolerance policy toward any form of forced labour, child labour, or exploitation. This statement explains our approach across our local lawn care business, including Newham lawn mowing services and related landscaping activities, and sets out how we identify, assess and mitigate modern slavery risks.

Our statement applies to all employees, contractors and suppliers engaged by Lawn Mowing Newham. We require that everyone working on behalf of the company complies with our standards. To achieve this we maintain clear policies, accessible training and ongoing due diligence. The expectation is simple: fair pay, freedom of movement, and lawful working conditions for all people engaged in lawn mowing services in Newham and adjacent areas.

Key commitments include:

• Zero tolerance for modern slavery or human trafficking in any form.
• Transparent supply chains with documented checks and records.
• Accessible reporting channels so concerns can be raised safely and swiftly.

Policy, Due Diligence and Supplier Audits

We conduct risk-based due diligence on our suppliers and subcontractors to ensure compliance with anti-slavery obligations. Our supplier onboarding includes vetting of labour practices, right-to-work checks and contractual clauses that require compliance with our anti-slavery policy. For medium and high-risk suppliers we perform scheduled supplier audits and site visits and review payroll and employment records. These measures apply to our core services such as lawn-mowing Newham contracts as well as seasonal and subcontracted landscaping work.

Supplier audits are a central control. Audits include documentary review and, where appropriate, unannounced inspections. We assess recruitment practices, working hours, accommodation (if provided), and grievance mechanisms. Non-compliance triggers corrective action plans and, when necessary, termination of supply arrangements. Suppliers must demonstrate continuous improvement and open access to audit records.

Reporting Channels and Worker Protections

We maintain multiple reporting channels for workers, contractors and third parties to raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Reports can be made anonymously through independent hotlines or via designated internal channels. All reports are taken seriously, promptly investigated and escalated where appropriate. Whistleblowers are protected and every allegation is addressed according to our disciplinary and remediation procedures.

In addition to audits and reporting, we provide training for managers and staff involved in recruitment, procurement and supplier management to ensure they can recognise signs of modern slavery. Our HR and compliance teams review contracts and supplier performance regularly, and we embed anti-slavery clauses into procurement documents for all Newham lawn mowing and landscaping tenders. We require suppliers to cascade these standards to their own subcontractors.

Annual review and continuous improvement. We review this Modern Slavery Statement at least once every year as part of our governance cycle. The annual review examines the effectiveness of our policies, supplier audit results, reported incidents, and training outcomes. Findings from the review inform updates to our risk assessments, procurement processes and training content to strengthen our mitigation measures.

In conclusion, Lawn Mowing Newham affirms its commitment to eradicating modern slavery from its operations and supply chains. We will continue to enforce a zero-tolerance policy, conduct thorough supplier audits, maintain secure reporting channels and undertake an annual review to measure progress. These actions reflect our determination to ensure ethical, lawful and humane working conditions across all lawn care services, Newham landscaping projects, and related supplier relationships.
