Modern Slavery Statement — House Clearance Vauxhall

House Clearance Vauxhall is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all aspects of our business. This statement sets out our policies and the steps we take to ensure that Vauxhall house clearance operations are conducted ethically, responsibly and transparently. Our commitment is underpinned by a zero-tolerance policy to any form of forced labour, exploitation or trafficking within our workforce, supply chain or service delivery.

We recognise the shared responsibility of all stakeholders in preventing exploitation across the home clearance sector. As a specialist provider of vauxhall house clearance and related clearance services, we actively promote fair working conditions and lawful employment practices. Our staff receive training to identify warning signs of modern slavery and to escalate concerns through the correct channels.

Scope and Principles

Our policy applies to every part of our operations — from collections and removals to storage and disposal — and extends to third-party contractors and sub-contractors involved in house clearance in Vauxhall. We insist on compliance with labour laws and international standards, and we require evidence of lawful employment and right-to-work where applicable. We will not tolerate exploitative practices and will take decisive action against any breach.

Supplier Due Diligence and Audits

We operate a robust supplier management process for all Vauxhall clearance services and partner relationships. Prospective suppliers are screened for compliance with anti-slavery standards before onboarding. Where suppliers provide labour-intensive services, we conduct risk-based audits and request documentation that demonstrates adherence to decent work practices.

Audits are carried out periodically and on an ad hoc basis if concerns arise. Our audit process includes site visits, document reviews, and interviews with personnel. Suppliers must demonstrate transparent recruitment and payroll practices and show records of contracts, timesheets and identifications that confirm workers receive lawful pay and are not subject to coercion or retention of personal documents.

To strengthen accountability, we include clear contractual clauses that require compliance with this modern slavery policy. Failure to remedy identified non-compliance within an agreed timeframe may lead to suspension or termination of supplier agreements and, where necessary, referral to relevant enforcement authorities.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing — We maintain confidential reporting routes for employees, contractors and third parties who suspect or witness modern slavery. Reports can be made internally through designated HR and compliance contacts, and we guarantee protection from retaliation for those raising concerns in good faith. In addition to internal escalation, we will cooperate with law enforcement and statutory bodies when required.

Key measures include:

• Clear whistleblowing procedures that protect anonymity and ensure impartial investigation.
• Regular training so staff recognise indicators of exploitation and know how to report.
• Prompt investigation of allegations and corrective action where violations are found.

Monitoring, Review and Continuous Improvement — The effectiveness of our anti-slavery measures is kept under regular review. We commit to an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and associated policies, evaluating audit findings, incident reports and changes in risk profiles across the region and supply chain. The review process informs updates to training, supplier controls and contractual safeguards to ensure our Vauxhall house-clearance activities remain free from exploitation.
