Modern Slavery Statement for Landscapers Manorpark

Landscapers Manorpark is committed to operating with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights across every part of our business. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps we take to prevent modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that the landscaping sector can involve seasonal labour, subcontracting, and extended supplier networks, which may increase risk. For that reason, our approach is built on vigilance, accountability, and zero tolerance for any form of abuse.

Our policy applies to all employees, contractors, suppliers, and business partners connected to Landscapers Manorpark. We expect every person acting on our behalf to uphold lawful, ethical, and fair working practices. This includes ensuring workers are free to leave employment, receive clear terms of engagement, are paid correctly, and are not subjected to coercion or intimidation. We communicate these expectations through contractual terms, procurement checks, and internal compliance procedures.

We believe that preventing modern slavery begins with awareness. As part of our ongoing commitment, we provide internal guidance so that teams understand the warning signs of exploitation, including restricted movement, withheld wages, identity document retention, and poor living or working conditions. Safeguarding workers is not only a legal duty but also a core part of how Landscapers Manorpark conducts responsible business.

Supplier oversight is a central part of this statement. Landscapers Manorpark conducts supplier audits and review checks to assess labour standards, subcontracting arrangements, and compliance with ethical requirements. Where appropriate, we request evidence of recruitment practices, worker contracts, payroll processes, and right-to-work procedures. These audits help us identify risks early and take corrective action where needed.

We apply a risk-based approach when evaluating suppliers. Higher-risk categories, such as labour providers, seasonal staffing agencies, and outsourced service partners, are subject to more detailed scrutiny. If concerns arise, we may request additional documentation, conduct follow-up reviews, or suspend the relationship until issues are resolved. In serious cases, we reserve the right to terminate contracts where ethical standards are not met.

Our procurement process is designed to support responsible sourcing across the landscaping supply chain. Landscapers Manorpark expects suppliers to share our values and to maintain accurate records that demonstrate fair employment practices. We encourage openness and cooperation so that potential problems can be identified and addressed before harm occurs. This helps ensure that our business relationships are based on respect and lawful conduct.

We recognise that workers and stakeholders must have safe and accessible ways to raise concerns. Reporting channels are available for any suspected breach of this statement, including concerns about modern slavery, unsafe recruitment, unpaid wages, or exploitation. Reports may be made internally through management and compliance routes, and all concerns are handled confidentially and with sensitivity. No one will suffer retaliation for raising a genuine concern in good faith.

Landscapers Manorpark takes every report seriously and responds promptly. Where necessary, we investigate allegations, gather evidence, and take appropriate action to protect affected individuals. This may include working with suppliers to remedy issues, escalating concerns to relevant authorities, or ending commercial relationships where cooperation is not forthcoming. Our approach is guided by fairness, urgency, and the need to protect vulnerable workers.

We also aim to create a culture in which Landscapers Manorpark employees feel confident to speak up without fear. By reinforcing awareness and accountability, we strengthen our ability to detect and prevent abuse. Modern slavery can be hidden, so reporting mechanisms are essential in helping us identify risks that may otherwise go unnoticed.

Responsibility for this statement is shared across leadership, procurement, and operational teams. Senior management reviews the effectiveness of our controls, monitors supplier performance, and supports action plans where weaknesses are identified. Training and internal communication are used to keep modern slavery prevention visible throughout the business. This ensures that ethical standards remain part of everyday decision-making.

We are committed to continuous improvement and will carry out an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement, along with our associated policies and procedures. The review will consider changes in legislation, business activities, supply-chain risk, audit findings, and any reports received during the year. Landscapers Manorpark will update its controls where required so that our response remains effective and proportionate.

This statement reflects our ongoing commitment to responsible practice and the protection of human dignity. Through zero-tolerance principles, supplier audits, clear reporting channels, and annual review, Landscapers Manorpark seeks to play an active role in preventing modern slavery in all forms. We will continue to strengthen our standards and expect the same from everyone who works with us.
