Modern Slavery Statement for Cleaner Queenspark

Cleaner Queenspark is committed to operating with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights in every part of our business. This modern slavery statement explains the steps we take to prevent slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that responsible cleaning services depend on ethical labour practices, transparent procurement, and ongoing vigilance. Our zero-tolerance policy applies to all employees, contractors, labour providers, and suppliers. Any indication of exploitative work practices is treated as a serious breach of our standards. We expect every person and organisation connected to Cleaner Queenspark to uphold the same principles.

To support this commitment, we assess risks across recruitment, subcontracting, and sourcing of goods and services. Cleaner Queenspark seeks to ensure that workers are employed voluntarily, paid fairly, and able to leave employment in accordance with the law. We do not permit passport retention, fee charging to workers, debt bondage, or intimidation of any kind. Our modern slavery approach is embedded into procurement decisions, staff training, and management oversight. This helps us maintain a safe, lawful, and ethical working environment.

We also require suppliers to confirm that they operate in line with applicable labour and human rights laws. Where appropriate, we carry out supplier audits and review evidence such as employment records, wage practices, and subcontracting arrangements. If a concern is identified, we investigate promptly and request corrective action. In serious cases, we may suspend or end the business relationship. These measures are intended to strengthen the resilience of the Cleaner Queenspark supply chain and reduce the risk of hidden exploitation.

Governance and Risk Management

At Cleaner Queenspark, responsibility for this statement sits with senior management, who review compliance, risk indicators, and any reported concerns. Our risk-based approach focuses on areas where vulnerability is higher, including temporary labour, outsourced services, and low-margin supply categories. We aim to identify warning signs early, using due diligence checks, document reviews, and periodic assessments. The modern slavery statement is not a static document; it supports an active framework for decision-making and continuous improvement.

Training is provided so that staff can recognise indicators of exploitation, such as restricted movement, unusual payroll deductions, or signs that a worker is controlled by another party. We encourage a culture where concerns are raised promptly and treated seriously. Reporting channels are available to help employees and contractors report suspected abuse without fear of retaliation. This includes internal management routes, confidentiality protections, and escalation procedures that ensure concerns are handled appropriately and discreetly.

Our zero-tolerance policy extends to any attempt to conceal abusive practices. If a supplier or labour provider fails to cooperate with an investigation, provides misleading information, or cannot demonstrate compliance, we will take decisive action. Cleaner Queenspark believes that ethical standards must be measurable, enforced, and visible throughout the supply chain. For this reason, our controls include review of onboarding documents, verification of trading relationships, and targeted monitoring where risk is elevated.

Supplier Standards and Monitoring

Due Diligence Expectations

All suppliers working with Cleaner Queenspark are expected to share our commitment to lawful and respectful employment. We prefer to work with suppliers that can demonstrate strong labour controls, clear recruitment practices, and transparent subcontracting. Supplier audits may be planned or unannounced, depending on the risk profile and nature of the service. These reviews help us assess whether working conditions, records, and management processes are consistent with our standards.

Where remediation is possible, we work with suppliers to improve compliance through corrective action plans, enhanced oversight, or additional verification. However, if risk remains unresolved, we will not continue the relationship. Our approach is designed to be practical while remaining uncompromising on human rights. By combining due diligence, monitoring, and enforcement, Cleaner Queenspark strengthens its ability to prevent modern slavery in all forms.

We also maintain clear reporting channels for anyone who suspects wrongdoing. These channels are intended to be accessible, confidential, and effective, allowing issues to be reported at the earliest opportunity. Reports may concern recruitment fees, coercion, unsafe labour arrangements, or unusual control over a worker’s documents or movement. All concerns are reviewed carefully, documented, and escalated when required.

Review and Continuous Improvement

Cleaner Queenspark will conduct an annual review of this modern slavery statement, its risk controls, and its supplier oversight practices. The review allows us to measure progress, identify emerging risks, and update procedures where necessary. It also supports a stronger compliance culture by ensuring our policies remain relevant and effective. Any lessons learned through investigations, audits, or internal reporting are used to improve future practice.

Our commitment is ongoing. We will continue to refine our training, strengthen supplier audits, and expand awareness across the business. Cleaner Queenspark believes that ethical operations are essential to sustainable service delivery and that every worker deserves dignity, fairness, and protection from exploitation. This statement reflects our current position and our determination to maintain a slavery-free workplace and supply chain.
