Modern Slavery Statement for Brixton Removals

Brixton Removals is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking within our operations and supply chain. We recognise that a zero-tolerance approach is essential to protecting workers and maintaining trust in our brand.

As a removal company, we rely on a wide range of suppliers, contractors, and service partners. Our responsibility extends beyond our own workplace, and we expect every party associated with Brixton Removals to share our commitment to ethical practices. We aim to ensure that our removals services are delivered in a way that respects dignity, complies with the law, and supports safe working conditions.

Our Zero-Tolerance Policy

We maintain a clear zero-tolerance policy toward any form of modern slavery. This applies to recruitment, employment, subcontracting, and procurement. Any indication of exploitation, coercion, document retention, debt bondage, or unlawful restriction of movement is treated as a serious concern and may result in immediate corrective action, contract termination, or referral to the appropriate authorities.

To reduce risk across our Brixton removals operations, we carry out due diligence on suppliers and work with partners who can demonstrate ethical labour standards. Our procurement process includes proportionate checks on labour practices, right-to-work controls where relevant, and assessment of business reputation and conduct. We also review subcontracting arrangements to ensure that protections are maintained throughout the chain.

Supplier audits are an important part of our compliance framework. Depending on risk level, audits may include document reviews, worker welfare checks, and verification of wages, hours, and subcontracting practices. Where concerns are identified, we require prompt remediation and monitor progress closely. Repeated or serious breaches may lead to suspension or removal from our approved supplier base.

We also expect suppliers to share our values by maintaining accurate records, using lawful recruitment methods, and avoiding any practice that could conceal exploitation. Our approach to modern slavery prevention is designed to be practical, consistent, and focused on continuous improvement.

Reporting channels are available to raise concerns about suspected wrongdoing, unsafe practices, or potential modern slavery risks. Matters can be reported through management, human resources, or any designated internal compliance route. We encourage early reporting so that concerns can be investigated quickly and confidentially, with the aim of protecting those who may be vulnerable.

We do not tolerate retaliation against anyone who raises a concern in good faith. All reports are handled sensitively and assessed according to the seriousness of the issue. If an allegation involves a supplier or contractor, we may pause work, conduct an internal review, and seek independent evidence before deciding on the next steps.

Training and Awareness

Relevant staff receive awareness training to help them recognise warning signs, understand escalation procedures, and apply the principles of ethical sourcing. This training supports our wider commitment to preventing exploitation across Brixton Removal activities and encourages a culture of vigilance and accountability.

This statement is reviewed annually to reflect changes in legislation, business activity, risk exposure, and best practice. The annual review allows us to strengthen controls, update supplier expectations, and refine our monitoring arrangements. Where necessary, we revise our policies and procedures to ensure that the Brixton Removals modern slavery statement remains effective and relevant.

We understand that eliminating modern slavery requires ongoing attention, informed judgement, and active participation from our teams and partners. By maintaining high standards, strengthening audit processes, and supporting secure reporting, we aim to uphold a responsible and ethical Brixton removals business model.

Brixton Removals remains firmly committed to continuous improvement and to acting decisively where risks are identified. Through this statement, we reaffirm our dedication to lawful, transparent, and humane practices in every part of our operation and supply chain.
