Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement — Office Clearance Soho

At Office Clearance Soho we set out a clear and uncompromising position: we have a zero-tolerance policy to modern slavery and human trafficking across our operations and supply chains. This Office Clearance in Soho statement explains how our Soho office clearance activities, procurement practices and subcontractor arrangements are managed to prevent exploitation, forced labour and related abuses. We are committed to continuous improvement and to ensuring every colleague and partner understands their responsibilities.

Our Zero-Tolerance Policy

We maintain a zero-tolerance stance: any evidence of modern slavery, forced labour or human trafficking will result in immediate action, including contract termination and referral to the appropriate authorities. Our policy applies to all employees, contractors and suppliers involved in office-clearance soho projects, and is embedded into our contractual terms. We will not tolerate exploitation in any form and we will act swiftly to protect victims and remediate risks.

Expectations of Suppliers and Partners

All suppliers who support Office Clearance Soho operations must comply with our standards. We require clear contractual commitments, right-to-work checks and transparency about labour sources. Our procurement process screens vendors for ethical practices and adherence to labour laws, and we reserve the right to terminate agreements where standards are not met. Suppliers must demonstrate responsible practices across their subcontractor networks.

Due Diligence and Risk Assessment

We conduct regular risk assessments across our supply chain to identify areas of potential modern slavery exposure. This includes evaluating high-risk services such as manual labour, logistics and short-term subcontracted roles often used in Soho office clearances. The assessment informs targeted due diligence and corrective action plans. Risk-based checks support prioritisation of supplier audits and resources.

Supplier Audits and Monitoring

Our supplier audit programme combines desk-based reviews with on-site inspections where necessary. Audit activities focus on working conditions, wage compliance, worker records, subcontractor oversight and recruitment practices. We evaluate suppliers against clear criteria and escalate non-compliance with timelines for remediation. Key audit elements include:

• Verification of employment contracts and wage records
• Assessment of recruitment fees and debt bondage risks
• Interviews with workers and spot checks on sites

These audits underpin our commitment to transparent and ethical supply chains for office-clearance SoHo projects.

We require corrective action plans when audits identify issues and follow up until concerns are resolved. Persistent or serious breaches will trigger contract suspension or termination and may be reported to enforcement agencies. Our aim is to remediate and prevent recurrence, not simply to remove suppliers without opportunity to improve.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

Office Clearance Soho provides multiple confidential reporting channels for employees, suppliers and third parties to raise concerns about modern slavery or unethical practices. Reports are treated seriously and investigated promptly. We protect whistleblowers from retaliation and ensure reports lead to proportionate action. Reports are handled by trained compliance personnel and governance oversight is provided by senior management.

Training, Governance and Responsibility

We deliver regular training to staff and procurement teams covering identification of modern slavery indicators, safe reporting procedures and supplier management. Governance is maintained through defined responsibilities: senior management owns policy and strategy, operations managers oversee implementation in Soho office clearance work, and compliance teams manage audits and investigations. Everyone has a role in preventing exploitation.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement

This modern slavery declaration is reviewed at least annually to ensure its effectiveness and to reflect evolving risks and regulatory expectations. Findings from audits, incident reports and training outcomes inform updates to policy, supplier controls and risk assessments. We commit to continuous improvement and to publishing progress on our efforts to eradicate modern slavery from our operations and supply chains.
