Modern Slavery Statement for Cleaner Putney
Cleaner Putney is committed to conducting business with integrity, dignity, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child labour in any part of our operations or supply chain. As a responsible Putney cleaning service, we recognise that modern slavery can occur in many forms, including coercion, debt bondage, and exploitation. We are determined to prevent these abuses through clear governance, careful supplier selection, and ongoing oversight.
Our commitment applies to every level of the business. We expect all employees, contractors, and suppliers to uphold the same ethical standards and to act with honesty and accountability. Cleaner Putney does not tolerate any practice that compromises a person’s freedom, safety, or wellbeing. We believe that a strong anti-slavery framework is not only a legal and moral obligation, but also an essential part of maintaining trust in our Cleaner Putney operations and broader business relationships.
To support this position, we operate a robust due diligence process for all key suppliers and service partners. Before entering into new arrangements, we assess the nature of the work, the countries involved, and the supplier’s labour standards. Higher-risk relationships may be subject to enhanced checks, including document reviews, labour practice questionnaires, and verification of recruitment methods. These supplier audits help us identify warning signs early and ensure that our supply chain remains aligned with our ethical expectations.
Our Zero-Tolerance Policy
Cleaner Putney applies a strict zero-tolerance policy toward any form of modern slavery. If we discover evidence of exploitation, we will act immediately and proportionately, which may include suspending a supplier relationship, escalating concerns to senior management, or reporting matters to the relevant authorities. We also require our teams to remain alert to indicators such as restricted movement, retention of identity documents, unexplained wage deductions, or workers appearing fearful, isolated, or controlled by others.
Training and awareness are important parts of prevention. Staff involved in procurement, operations, and management receive guidance on recognising risks and responding appropriately. This helps ensure that our Cleaner Putney service remains vigilant across both direct activities and outsourced arrangements. We encourage a culture where safeguarding human rights is treated as a shared responsibility, supported by practical decision-making and consistent review of working practices.
We also seek to promote transparency within our supply chain. Suppliers are expected to confirm that they comply with applicable labour laws and that they take steps to prevent exploitation within their own operations. Where risks are identified, we may request corrective actions, additional evidence, or termination of the relationship if improvements are not made. Through these measures, Cleaner Putney aims to reduce vulnerability and strengthen ethical standards across every stage of service delivery.
Reporting, Oversight, and Review
Concerns about modern slavery can be reported through internal reporting channels, including line managers, senior leadership, or designated safeguarding routes. All concerns are handled seriously, discreetly, and without retaliation against those who raise them in good faith. We encourage prompt reporting of any suspicious behaviour, because early disclosure can help protect vulnerable individuals and limit harm. Our approach is designed to make speaking up safe, practical, and effective.
Senior management reviews reported concerns, supplier findings, and control measures to ensure that our response remains effective. This oversight includes evaluating the outcomes of supplier audits, monitoring trends in risk, and confirming that corrective actions are completed on time. By keeping modern slavery risks under regular review, Cleaner Putney strengthens accountability and demonstrates that its commitment is active rather than symbolic. We expect every part of the business to support this process.
This statement will be reviewed annually to reflect changes in legislation, business practices, and supply chain risk. Each review will consider whether our policies, reporting channels, training, and supplier controls remain fit for purpose. Where needed, we will update our processes to improve prevention and response. Cleaner Putney remains committed to continuous improvement and to operating as a responsible Putney cleaning company that rejects exploitation in all its forms.
