Modern Slavery Statement for Carpetcleaning SE24

Carpetcleaning SE24 is committed to conducting business with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent forced labour, human trafficking, debt bondage, and all forms of exploitation within our operations and supply chain. We recognise that responsible carpet cleaning services must be built on ethical sourcing, fair treatment, and clear accountability.

Our zero-tolerance policy applies to every level of the business. We do not accept any form of modern slavery, whether in recruitment, employment, subcontracting, transport, procurement, or facilities support. All workers must be employed voluntarily, treated with dignity, and paid in line with applicable laws. We require managers to apply this policy consistently and to take immediate action if concerns arise.

As part of our approach, Carpetcleaning SE24 carries out supplier audits to assess labour practices, documentation, and compliance controls. These audits help us identify risks in higher-risk categories such as uniforms, cleaning products, logistics, and outsourced services. We also expect suppliers to maintain accurate records, confirm the legal right to work of their staff, and ensure that subcontractors follow the same standards.

Risk Management and Oversight

Modern slavery risks are reviewed during supplier onboarding and periodically thereafter. Where concerns are identified, we investigate promptly and may require corrective actions, enhanced monitoring, or termination of the relationship. Our procurement decisions are guided not only by cost and quality, but also by the supplier’s ability to uphold ethical labour practices. We do not knowingly work with organisations that tolerate abuse, coercion, or unsafe working conditions.

Staff are trained to recognise warning signs such as document retention, excessive hours, restricted movement, or unexplained wage deductions. This training supports a culture where concerns can be raised early. Internally, we encourage everyone to remain alert to behaviours that may suggest exploitation in any part of the carpet cleaning supply chain.

We maintain secure and accessible reporting channels so that employees, contractors, and suppliers can raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Reports may be made through line management, senior leadership, or designated internal compliance routes. Every report is treated seriously, handled confidentially where possible, and assessed in a timely manner. No one will suffer disadvantage for speaking up in good faith.

Our Commitments

Carpetcleaning SE24 expects all business partners to share our values and to comply with relevant modern slavery and labour laws. We seek written assurances from suppliers that their workforce is free to choose employment freely and that they do not use forced, trafficked, or child labour. Where appropriate, we request evidence of recruitment practices, wage records, and worker welfare measures.

We understand that risks can evolve over time, particularly where supply chains become more complex or new service providers are introduced. For that reason, our compliance controls are designed to be proportionate, practical, and continually improved. If a breach is suspected, we will investigate, take decisive action, and, where necessary, suspend or end the arrangement.

The company’s leadership is responsible for ensuring this statement is implemented, monitored, and embedded across day-to-day operations. By promoting openness, careful supplier selection, and active oversight, Carpetcleaning SE24 aims to reduce the possibility of exploitation and uphold the highest standards of responsible business conduct.

Annual Review

This statement will be reviewed annually to confirm its continued effectiveness and to reflect changes in legislation, operating practices, and supply chain risk. The review will consider audit outcomes, reported concerns, training completion, and any remedial actions taken. Updates will be made where needed to strengthen our controls and improve our response to emerging risks.

Our annual review also helps us measure whether our carpet cleaning business remains aligned with our modern slavery prevention commitments. We will continue to improve our due diligence, reinforce our zero-tolerance policy, and enhance supplier oversight wherever necessary.

Carpetcleaning SE24 is committed to continuous improvement and to operating in a way that protects vulnerable people from exploitation. Through careful monitoring, transparent reporting, and a firm ethical stance, we aim to ensure that modern slavery has no place in our business or supply chain.
