Modern Slavery Statement — Lawn Mowing Bow

This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the position of Lawn Mowing Bow and related operating teams regarding the prevention of modern slavery and human trafficking across our services. We confirm a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of forced labour, human trafficking or exploitation in our operations and supply chain. Our Bow lawn mowing and grounds maintenance activities are conducted with respect for human rights, dignity and lawful employment.

We apply these principles across our workforce, contractors and subcontractors engaged in lawn care and other grounds services. This statement covers lawn mowing in Bow, subcontracted horticultural work and any ancillary logistics. All staff and suppliers must comply with our code of conduct and contractual terms that explicitly prohibit modern slavery. We require evidence of legal right to work and fair pay practices for everyone working on our sites.

Our approach to supplier management includes thorough due diligence and ongoing monitoring. We conduct risk-based supplier audits focusing on recruitment practices, working hours, wage compliance and contract transparency. Key elements of our supplier controls include:

• Pre-engagement screening and risk assessment
• Contract clauses prohibiting forced labour and rights to audit
• Periodic on-site and remote supplier audits with corrective action plans

We are committed to continuous improvement. Our procurement and operations teams apply a risk-based approach to identify where exploitation may occur, prioritising high-risk labour-sourcing practices. All contracts include clear anti-slavery clauses and the right to terminate arrangements where suppliers fail to address non-compliance. This commitment applies across Bow lawn services, seasonal contracts and specialist subcontracts.

Reporting channels are essential to detect and address concerns. We provide secure and confidential routes for employees and third parties to raise concerns about exploitation. Reports can be made through internal whistleblowing channels and through designated supervisors; all reports are taken seriously, investigated promptly and treated in confidence. We ensure protections against retaliation for reporters and provide support to affected individuals.

We maintain training programmes for managers and operatives to recognise signs of modern slavery and to respond appropriately. Regular briefings on ethical sourcing and labour standards are part of our induction and refresher training. Our teams engaged in Bow lawn mowing receive targeted guidance on monitoring subcontractor labour practices and verifying documentation.

Enforcement of our zero-tolerance policy includes investigative procedures, remedial actions and where necessary contract termination. When instances of non-compliance are identified we require suppliers to implement corrective actions and we monitor progress. Remediation may include worker restitution, changes to recruitment practices and strengthened supervision to prevent recurrence.

We publish an annual review of our efforts to combat modern slavery in the context of lawn and grounds services. The annual review evaluates the effectiveness of our supplier audits, training, reporting mechanisms and remediation measures. As part of that review we monitor key performance indicators such as audit coverage, number of concerns raised and the time taken to resolve issues.

In conclusion, every member of the Lawn Mowing Bow team is responsible for upholding human rights and preventing exploitation. We will continue to strengthen our policies, enhance supplier audits and maintain accessible reporting channels. This statement will be reviewed at least annually, and updated actions will be prioritised where risks are identified, ensuring our Bow lawn mowing services remain ethical, lawful and transparent.
