Modern Slavery Statement for One off Cleaning
One off Cleaning is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all aspects of our operations. This Modern Slavery Statement (also referred to as our modern slavery statement) sets out the steps we take to ensure that forced labour, child labour and other forms of exploitation do not exist within our business or supply chains. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy to any form of slavery or human trafficking and require all staff and contractors to adhere to the highest ethical standards.
Our approach applies to every part of the organisation and to all suppliers, subcontractors and partners engaged to deliver cleaning services. The statement explains the policies, due diligence processes and training that underpin our work. We recognise our responsibility as a service provider and employer, and we publish this declaration to make our commitments transparent and actionable.
We ensure compliance with applicable laws and standards across jurisdictions where we operate. Our procurement and HR policies enforce eligibility to work checks, fair wages and safe working conditions, and we explicitly prohibit retention of identity documents by employers. Our supplier selection criteria include assessments of labour practices and contractual clauses that require adherence to our anti-slavery expectations.
Supply Chain Due Diligence and Supplier Audits
One-Off Cleaning operates a risk-based due diligence process to identify, assess and mitigate modern slavery risks in our supply chain. We perform periodic supplier audits and site visits focused on labour practices, working hours, remuneration and accommodation where provided. Audit activities include:- Document reviews of payroll, contracts and identity checks;
- On-site interviews with workers conducted in a confidential manner;
- Remediation plans for any non-compliance identified, with timelines and follow-up audits.
Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing
We provide multiple confidential reporting channels so employees, contractors and third parties can raise concerns without fear of reprisal. Reports can be made through internal managers, designated compliance officers, or via anonymous reporting mechanisms. All allegations are treated seriously, investigated promptly, and appropriate corrective action is taken where needed. We protect whistleblowers and ensure that reported issues are documented and monitored to closure.
Training, Monitoring and Annual Review
Our staff and management receive regular training to recognise the signs of modern slavery and to understand reporting procedures. We monitor the effectiveness of our policies through key performance indicators, audit outcomes and supplier compliance rates. An annual review of this modern slavery policy is conducted to assess progress, update risk assessments and refine mitigation measures. The review informs improvements to supplier contracts, training curricula and due diligence protocols.The organisation’s governance framework ensures that senior leadership oversees implementation, that remediation is tracked to completion and that resources are allocated for continuous improvement. We publish this statement annually and use lessons learned from audits and reports to strengthen our controls and supplier engagement.
In conclusion, One off cleaning maintains a zero-tolerance policy on modern slavery and human trafficking. Through regular supplier audits, robust reporting channels, comprehensive training and an annual review cycle, we strive to identify and eliminate any risk of exploitation in our operations and supply chains. This commitment forms part of our broader ethical and corporate responsibility obligations and is central to how we operate, contract and engage with others.
