Modern Slavery Statement for Cleaner Brixton
Cleaner Brixton is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our operations. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, child labour, and any form of exploitation within our business and supply chain. We recognise that responsibility begins with leadership, and we expect the same standards from everyone who works with or for us.
As a provider of professional cleaning services, Cleaner Brixton understands that our sector can present risks linked to labour exploitation, subcontracting, and informal recruitment practices. To address these risks, we have implemented clear controls designed to promote fair treatment, lawful employment, and transparent working conditions. Our commitment applies to employees, agency workers, contractors, and suppliers alike.
This Cleaner Brixton modern slavery policy is supported by due diligence procedures that help us identify and reduce risk. We ask suppliers to confirm compliance with relevant labour, employment, and immigration laws, and we reserve the right to terminate relationships where concerns cannot be resolved. Our approach is practical, proportionate, and focused on continuous improvement.
Supplier management is central to our anti-slavery programme. We conduct supplier audits and reviews to assess employment practices, wage compliance, worker accommodation standards where relevant, and the use of subcontractors. Where a higher-risk supplier is identified, we may request documentation, carry out deeper checks, or implement corrective actions with deadlines. These reviews help ensure that our cleaners and support workers are protected throughout the chain of service delivery.
Cleaner Brixton also requires suppliers to maintain accurate records and to cooperate fully during assessments. We expect every supplier to have their own robust safeguards, including recruitment checks, right-to-work verification, and a clear mechanism for reporting concerns. In this way, our Cleaner Brixton statement supports responsible sourcing and ethical operations across all business activities.
Reporting channels are an essential part of our safeguarding framework. Any worker, supplier, or stakeholder who suspects exploitation may raise concerns through internal management routes, confidential reporting procedures, or designated safeguarding contacts. We treat all reports seriously, investigate promptly, and protect individuals from retaliation. Concerns may include coercion, withheld wages, excessive working hours, or any sign of abuse. We encourage early reporting so that issues can be addressed quickly and fairly.
Our training programme reinforces awareness of modern slavery risks and supports staff in recognising warning signs. Relevant colleagues receive guidance on ethical recruitment, labour rights, and escalation procedures. Managers are expected to act decisively if they identify a potential breach. We also review our purchasing and contracting processes to make sure commercial pressure never overrides responsible practice. Ethical conduct is not optional; it is a core part of how Cleaner Brixton operates.
Annual review is built into our governance approach. Each year, we assess the effectiveness of our controls, evaluate incident reports, review supplier performance, and update our procedures where needed. This review allows us to respond to emerging risks, strengthen oversight, and maintain accountability. If lessons are identified, we use them to improve our policies and training. Our leadership team signs off the statement annually and ensures that action points are tracked to completion.
Cleaner Brixton believes that tackling modern slavery requires vigilance, transparency, and shared responsibility. We will continue to strengthen our safeguards, maintain a zero-tolerance policy, and work only with partners who respect human dignity. By combining risk assessment, supplier audits, reporting channels, and annual review, we aim to ensure that modern slavery has no place in our business or supply chain.
