Modern Slavery Statement — Business Waste Removal Bethnal Green

Business Waste Removal Bethnal Green is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. We recognise our responsibility to maintain ethical practices across every service we provide to businesses in Bethnal Green and the surrounding areas. This statement sets out the steps we take to ensure that exploitation has no place in our waste collection, recycling and disposal operations.

Our zero-tolerance position is clear: we will not tolerate forced labour, exploitation, or any form of modern slavery in our workforce or that of our contractors. This commitment applies to all staff, drivers, operatives and third-party providers engaged in commercial waste removal in Bethnal Green. Every employee is expected to adhere to our standards and to report concerns through the channels we provide.

Scope and Approach

This statement applies to the company’s activities across all business waste removal services in Bethnal Green and our procurement of goods and services. We take a risk-based approach to identify where labour exploitation might occur in the lifecycle of waste management: from manual handling and on-site labour to subcontracted transport and temporary placements. Our approach emphasises prevention through policy, training and ongoing oversight.

Policies and Responsibilities

Senior management has overall responsibility for compliance with this modern slavery policy and ensures it is implemented across our Bethnal Green business waste removal operations. Managers and procurement staff are required to apply due diligence when engaging suppliers and contractors, ensuring contractual terms prohibit exploitative practices.

We operate a supplier code of conduct that requires suppliers to confirm adherence to labour standards. Supplier selection and ongoing engagement includes verified identity checks, confirmation of legal right to work, and clear contractual clauses allowing audits and termination if modern slavery risks are identified. These measures protect both workers and the integrity of our services.

To support these measures we maintain a structured programme of supplier audits and performance reviews. Audits include documentation checks, site visits where feasible, and interviews with staff in the supply chain. We prioritise higher-risk suppliers and those in roles historically susceptible to exploitation when selecting audit targets.

Our modern slavery prevention also relies on clear reporting channels. Employees, contractors and freelancers involved in waste removal for businesses in Bethnal Green are provided with multiple secure and confidential ways to raise concerns. Reports can be made internally to designated officers and through anonymous mechanisms where necessary to protect whistleblowers. All reports are investigated promptly and with appropriate confidentiality.

The organisation provides training for staff and managers on recognising signs of exploitation and on the correct response if modern slavery is suspected. Training covers indicators such as withheld wages, restricted movement, unusual recruitment practices and suspicious subcontracting. Empowering our teams is central to reducing risk across Bethnal Green business waste removal operations.

Monitoring, Transparency and Annual Review We commit to an annual review of this statement and to public accountability for progress. Each year we will assess the effectiveness of our policies, the outcomes of supplier audits, training completion rates and any incidents or remediation actions taken. The review informs continuous improvement of our modern slavery mitigation strategy and helps shape procurement and compliance priorities for future years.
