Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury Modern Slavery Statement
This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury is taking to prevent modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation within our operations and supply chains. We recognise our responsibility to uphold human rights and to conduct business in a way that respects the dignity and wellbeing of every individual who contributes to our services.
Our Commitment and Zero-Tolerance Policy
Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury has a clear zero-tolerance approach to all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking. We will not knowingly engage with any organisation, contractor, or individual that is involved in practices that exploit people or breach fundamental human rights. This commitment applies to every aspect of our business, from direct employment to the sourcing of equipment, products, and subcontracted services. All managers and staff are expected to act in line with this policy and to challenge and report any practice that appears inconsistent with it.
Our Business and Supply Chains
Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury provides professional deep cleaning services across a range of commercial and residential properties. Our supply chains include the procurement of cleaning equipment, materials, and consumables, as well as the use of specialist contractors for certain services. We recognise that some parts of our supply chain may present a higher risk of modern slavery, particularly where work is low paid, seasonal, or delivered through complex subcontracting arrangements. We are committed to identifying and managing these risks proactively.
Due Diligence and Supplier Audits
We conduct due diligence on new suppliers and review existing suppliers to ensure they share our commitment to preventing modern slavery. As part of this process, suppliers are required to confirm that they comply with all applicable labour and human rights laws, do not use forced, bonded, or involuntary labour, and have appropriate measures in place to prevent exploitation within their own operations and supply chains.
Where proportionate to the level of risk, Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury undertakes supplier audits, which may include review of policies, workforce conditions, recruitment practices, and the use of subcontractors. If any supplier fails to meet our standards or is unable to demonstrate genuine efforts to improve, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate the relationship in line with our zero-tolerance stance.
Training, Awareness, and Reporting Channels
We are committed to raising awareness of modern slavery among our staff, particularly those involved in recruitment, procurement, and contract management. Training and guidance are provided so that employees understand the signs of exploitation and know how to respond appropriately.
Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury encourages all employees, contractors, and suppliers to report any concerns about modern slavery or unethical labour practices. Reports can be made through internal management channels or directly to senior leadership. Reports may be made confidentially, and we will not tolerate any form of victimisation or retaliation against individuals who raise concerns in good faith. All reports will be taken seriously, investigated promptly, and addressed with appropriate remedial action.
Ongoing Monitoring and Annual Review
We recognise that tackling modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility that requires continuous improvement. Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury regularly monitors its practices, reviews feedback from staff and suppliers, and updates processes where necessary to strengthen protections against exploitation.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed and approved at least once every 12 months by the senior management of Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury. As part of the annual review, we assess the effectiveness of our actions, consider any incidents or concerns raised, and set priorities for further improvement. Updates to this statement will reflect changes in legislation, best practice, and the evolving nature of our business and supply chains.
Deep Cleaning Bloomsbury is fully committed to maintaining transparent, ethical, and responsible operations, and to working with our partners to eradicate modern slavery in all its forms.
