Modern Slavery Statement — Lawn Mowing Holborn

This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the commitment of Lawn Mowing Holborn to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking across our operations and supply chains. As a provider of Holborn lawn mowing and related grounds maintenance services, we recognise our responsibility to identify, assess and mitigate the risks of forced labour, exploitation and human trafficking within our business and the businesses of our contractors and suppliers.

Our organisation operates with a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery. We require all staff, contractors and partners engaged in lawn mowing in Holborn and wider Holborn lawncare activity to comply with our ethical standards. Any instance of suspected exploitation or coercion will be treated seriously, investigated promptly and, where necessary, reported to the appropriate authorities.

We apply consistent due diligence to our recruitment, employment and procurement processes. For employees and direct hires we confirm identity, verify right to work and maintain transparent payroll and working hour records. For contractors and suppliers we require documented assurances that their practices align with our values and legal obligations.

Risk Assessment and Supplier Audits

We conduct regular risk assessments focusing on services and products most exposed to modern slavery risk within the gardening, grounds maintenance and lawn care sectors. Our supplier audit programme targets suppliers that provide labour, landscaping materials and outsourced services. Audits include review of working conditions, recruitment fees, employment contracts and sub-contractor relationships. Where non-compliance is identified, we demand corrective action plans or terminate relationships if adequate remediation is not achieved.

Controls and Monitoring

Controls include contractual clauses that stipulate anti-slavery obligations, periodic on-site checks for high-risk suppliers, and examination of wage and time records. We use a risk-based approach to determine the frequency of supplier audits and require suppliers to maintain their own anti-slavery policies consistent with ours. Our procurement team is trained in identifying indicators of forced labour and exploitation in the context of Holborn lawn mowing and general lawncare supply chains.

To reinforce these measures we maintain clear reporting channels for concerns or allegations, accessible to employees, contractors and third parties. Reports may be made confidentially and without fear of retaliation. We commit to investigating all reports thoroughly and taking appropriate action to protect individuals and remediate harms.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing: We operate multiple safe reporting channels. Staff are encouraged to raise concerns through their line managers, HR or via an internal secure reporting system. Contractors and third parties can notify us through documented procedures. We ensure reports are logged, assessed and escalated where necessary; any substantiated incidents prompt immediate remedial steps and support for affected workers.

Training and awareness are central to our prevention strategy. All staff involved in recruitment, procurement and supplier management receive targeted training on recognising modern slavery indicators and responding appropriately. We also provide guidance to partners engaged in Holborn lawn mowing, to strengthen the broader supply chain and improve detection and prevention of abuse.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement: This statement and our associated policies are subject to an annual review to ensure effectiveness, compliance and continuous improvement. The review examines audit outcomes, reported incidents, remedial actions and the evolving risk landscape for lawn maintenance services in central London. Findings lead to updated controls, enhanced training and, where required, strengthened contractual terms with suppliers.

Our key commitments are summarised below:

• Zero-tolerance policy: No acceptance of forced labour in any part of our operations or supply chain.
• Supplier audits: Risk-based audits and corrective action requirements for contractors and suppliers.
• Reporting channels: Secure, confidential routes for raising concerns and whistleblowing protections.
• Annual review: Regular evaluation of policies, training and outcomes to strengthen our response.

By maintaining these measures and applying them across our Holborn lawncare and landscaping activities, Lawn Mowing Holborn seeks to play an active role in eradicating modern slavery wherever it may occur. We believe that transparency, robust supplier oversight and protection for vulnerable workers are essential to delivering ethical services and sustaining public trust in our sector.

We will continue to refine our approach as part of an ongoing commitment to responsible business practice and to the fundamental human rights of everyone connected to our operations in Holborn and beyond.
