Bromley Skip Hire - Modern Slavery Statement

This Modern Slavery Statement explains Bromley Skip Hire's commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking across our operations and supply chain. We set out a clear zero-tolerance position and the practical measures we take to identify, manage and mitigate risks. Our anti-slavery statement reflects the core values of the business and underlines that exploitation of people has no place in our services, procurement or sub-contracting arrangements.

Zero-tolerance policy and core principles

Bromley Skip Hire operates a zero-tolerance policy towards slavery, forced labour and human trafficking. We require all colleagues, contractors and suppliers to adhere to this anti-slavery policy. Every employee is expected to act with integrity and report concerns. We treat any allegation seriously and will investigate promptly, taking decisive action including contract termination and legal referral where breaches are found.

Scope, obligations and supplier audits

Our slavery and human trafficking statement covers direct operations and our supply chain, including subcontractors who provide haulage, site services and waste processing. We conduct regular supplier audits and due diligence assessments focusing on:

• Verification of labour standards and right to work checks
• Review of recruitment fees and use of third-party labour providers
• Site-level inspections and documentation audits
• Contract clauses requiring compliance with our anti-slavery standards

We use a risk-based approach to target supplier audits where the potential for exploitation is higher. Our procurement team incorporates modern slavery risk assessments into supplier onboarding and periodic reviews. Where risks are identified we require corrective action plans, capped timescales for remediation and follow-up audits to ensure compliance.

Training, awareness and reporting channels: Bromley Skip Hire maintains regular staff training and awareness sessions to help employees spot indicators of exploitation. We provide clear, confidential reporting channels, including an internal whistleblowing route and anonymous reporting mechanisms. Reports are accepted from staff, suppliers and third parties and are handled confidentially. We will protect anyone who raises concerns in good faith and ensure that reports are investigated by senior management.

Our supplier audit programme is supported by contractual requirements and verification checks. We expect suppliers to demonstrate continuous improvement and collaborate on corrective measures. Non-compliance triggers escalation: remediation support, probationary terms, or contract cessation. We document findings in audit reports and monitor remediation progress until all issues are closed.

Governance, responsibility and continuous improvement: Responsibility for implementing our modern slavery policies sits with the senior leadership team, with operational oversight from our compliance and procurement leads. We integrate the anti-slavery statement into governance reviews and align our approach with industry best practice. Internal controls, KPIs and incident logs enable transparency and management oversight.

Annual review and public reporting: Bromley Skip Hire will review this statement and related policies at least once every 12 months. The annual review examines supplier audit outcomes, training uptake, reported incidents and remediation effectiveness. Where necessary the statement and procedures will be updated to reflect changes in our supply chain, regulatory standards or lessons learned from investigations. This Modern Slavery Policy review process ensures ongoing improvement and accountability.

Conclusion: Our anti-slavery statement is a practical pledge to prevent exploitation within Bromley Skip Hire and across our suppliers. We remain committed to transparency, to carrying out regular supplier audits and to maintaining safe, confidential reporting channels. With a strong zero-tolerance approach, clear governance and an annual review cycle, we will continue to strengthen our response to modern slavery and protect vulnerable workers throughout our operations.
