Camden Town Removals Modern Slavery Statement

This Modern Slavery Statement is made by Camden Town Removals in relation to our financial year and outlines the steps we are taking to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in our business operations and supply chains. We recognise our responsibility to act ethically, to respect human rights, and to ensure that our activities do not contribute to exploitation in any form.

Camden Town Removals provides removals and related services across a range of residential and commercial customers. Our operations depend on a network of suppliers and contractors, including vehicle and equipment providers, storage facilities, packaging suppliers, and agency labour. We understand that these areas can carry risks of labour exploitation, and we are committed to identifying, assessing, and mitigating those risks.

Our Zero-Tolerance Approach

Camden Town Removals has a clear and uncompromising zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking. This policy applies to all directors, employees, agency workers, contractors, and anyone working on our behalf. We will not knowingly engage with any organisation or individual involved in forced labour, servitude, debt bondage, child labour, or any form of human trafficking.

We expect the same high standards from all our suppliers and business partners. Where we identify a breach or serious risk of breach, we will take appropriate action, which may include suspension of work, termination of contracts, or referral to relevant authorities. Our aim is both to protect vulnerable individuals and to support ethical business practices throughout our sector.

Supplier Standards and Audits

We are committed to working only with suppliers that share our values and comply with applicable labour and human rights laws. Our procurement decisions take into account a supplier’s approach to working conditions, recruitment practices, and overall ethical conduct.

As part of our due diligence, we require suppliers to confirm that they do not use forced, compulsory, or trafficked labour and that they provide safe and fair working conditions. We reserve the right to conduct audits or assessments of key suppliers, focusing on higher risk categories such as labour agencies, overseas sourcing, and subcontracted services. These audits may involve onsite visits, document reviews, and interviews with workers where appropriate and feasible.

Where non-compliance is identified, we will work with suppliers to implement corrective actions within a reasonable timeframe. If issues are not resolved, we will consider ending the business relationship.

Training, Awareness, and Reporting Channels

We recognise that effective prevention of modern slavery depends on awareness and vigilance. Camden Town Removals provides training and guidance for relevant employees, especially those involved in recruitment, site management, and supplier engagement. This training covers the signs of modern slavery, how to raise concerns, and the responsibilities of managers and staff.

We encourage all employees, contractors, and third parties to report any suspicion or concern about modern slavery or unethical labour practices in our business or supply chains. Concerns can be raised through internal reporting channels to management or through confidential reporting mechanisms where available. Reports will be treated seriously, investigated promptly, and handled with appropriate sensitivity to protect those raising concerns from victimisation.

Continuous Improvement and Annual Review

Camden Town Removals is committed to continually improving our processes to combat modern slavery. We review our policies, risk assessments, and supplier management practices on an ongoing basis, taking into account evolving legislation, industry guidance, and lessons learned from our own operations.

This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed and approved at least annually by the leadership of Camden Town Removals. As part of the review, we evaluate the effectiveness of our measures, consider feedback from stakeholders, and set objectives for further improvement. We are dedicated to increasing transparency in our activities and to working collaboratively with suppliers, employees, and partners to help eradicate modern slavery in all its forms.

This statement reflects the commitment of Camden Town Removals to ethical conduct and respect for human rights throughout our business and supply chains.
