Modern Slavery Statement — Garden Clearance Pinner

Garden Clearance Pinner is committed to the highest standards of ethical conduct. We have a zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery and human trafficking in any part of our operations or supply chains. This statement sets out our approach and the measures we take to prevent exploitation in our garden clearance in Pinner activities and related services.

We operate with transparency and accountability. Our zero-tolerance policy is communicated to all staff and contractors, and is embedded in company procedures. Every employee and subcontractor engaged in Pinner garden clearance receives training on identifying signs of forced labour, debt bondage and other forms of modern slavery. We expect the same standards from suppliers, third-party partners and anyone providing materials or labour to support Garden-clearing Pinner projects.

To ensure compliance we conduct regular supplier audits and risk assessments. Audits include documentation checks, site visits and interviews where necessary. Our supplier audit programme prioritises high-risk suppliers and those delivering manual labour for Pinner garden clearance operations, and includes verification of right-to-work documentation, fair payment records and safe working conditions. We also require written assurances and anti-slavery clauses in supplier contracts.

We maintain robust reporting channels for concerns and disclosures. Staff are encouraged to report suspicious activity via anonymised internal channels, whistleblowing lines and through direct reporting to senior management. Reporting channels are maintained confidentially and staff are protected from retaliation. If a report relates to our garden clearance in Pinner work or any supplier, it is investigated promptly and proportionately.

Our investigations follow a clear protocol: immediate risk assessment, safeguarding any affected individuals, suspension of suspicious contracts, and cooperation with law enforcement and relevant authorities when appropriate. We maintain records of investigations and remedial actions, including termination of contracts and restitution where necessary. These steps form part of our commitment to eradicate modern slavery from all Pinner garden clearance operations.

We take a proactive approach to prevention through procurement standards and training. Our procurement policy requires due diligence on new and existing suppliers engaged in Pinner garden clearance services. Key measures include:

• Regular supplier audits and on-site inspections focused on labour conditions and subcontracting;
• Mandatory contractual clauses prohibiting forced labour and requiring timely pay;
• Training for procurement and site teams to spot signs of exploitation and to use reporting channels.

Staff responsible for purchasing receive annual training on ethical sourcing, and we include anti-slavery responsibilities in job descriptions for managers overseeing garden clearance projects.

Our company supports continuous improvement. We publish this modern slavery statement to make our stance clear: no tolerance for exploitation, and a commitment to remedial action. The statement explains how our supplier audits and reporting channels operate, and how we respond to allegations related to Garden Clearance Pinner and allied activities.

As part of governance, an annual review is conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of our measures. The

Annual Review

examines audit findings, training completion rates, incident records and supplier performance. Outcomes of the review lead to updated policies, additional training and enhancements to our supplier audit programme to address newly identified risks in Pinner garden clearance and related activities. This review is central to continuous improvement and accountability.

Accountability and next steps

We allocate senior management responsibility for implementation and reporting on this statement. Strong leadership and clear accountability ensure that our Pinner garden clearance commitments are not merely aspirational. We will continue to monitor, audit and improve our practices annually, strengthen supplier engagement and promote a culture in which anyone involved in garden-clearing Pinner operations can report concerns safely and confidently.
