Modern Slavery Statement — Lawn Mowing Kenton

Lawn Mowing Kenton is committed to the highest standards of ethical conduct and responsible business practice. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our approach to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. We take a zero-tolerance policy to any form of forced labour, exploitation or trafficking in people, and we expect the same standard from all suppliers and partners.

Our commitment covers Kenton lawn mowing, lawn maintenance in Kenton and related landscaping services. We maintain policies and controls designed to identify and prevent risks across our workforce and those engaged through subcontractors. We will not tolerate any practice that undermines the dignity or rights of workers.

Scope and Risk Assessment

We regularly assess risks in our operations and in the supply chain for our Kenton grass cutting and garden care services. This assessment focuses on areas where vulnerability is higher, including seasonal labour, subcontracted teams and suppliers of materials or casual workers. Our risk framework includes:

• Identification of high-risk supplier categories
• Checks on recruitment practices and worker contracts
• Review of conditions for temporary and contract workers

We operate a zero-tolerance policy across all Kenton lawn mowing and landscaping operations. Any evidence of forced labour, retention of identity documents, withholding pay or threats towards workers will trigger immediate investigation and remedial action, up to contract termination and reporting to the relevant authorities. Our policy is clear: no exceptions.

Supplier due diligence and audits

Supplier audits form a core element of our prevention measures. We carry out:

regular supplier assessments, on-site audits where practical and remote verification of labour practices. These reviews evaluate recruitment channels, employment terms, working hours and wage compliance. Where non-conformances are found, suppliers must agree to corrective action plans within agreed timeframes. Persistent or severe breaches lead to suspension or removal from our approved supplier list.

We also include anti-slavery clauses in our contracts with subcontractors and key suppliers for Kenton grass cutting and general garden services. Our procurement teams work to ensure transparency and traceability, especially for outsourced labour and supply of key materials. Supplier audits are supported by documentation reviews and, when necessary, interviews with workers to verify conditions.

Reporting channels and whistleblowing

We provide multiple, confidential reporting channels so that workers, suppliers and members of the public can raise concerns about modern slavery without fear of retaliation. Reports can be made through internal reporting lines, anonymous mechanisms and third-party whistleblowing arrangements. All allegations are treated seriously and investigated promptly by designated compliance personnel.

Reports are managed with respect for confidentiality and the safety of the reporter. Anyone who raises a concern in good faith will be protected from detrimental treatment, and corrective measures will be proportionate to the findings.

Training and awareness

We provide training to staff who are likely to encounter risks associated with modern slavery, including procurement, site managers and supervisory teams involved in Kenton lawn mowing operations. Training covers recognition of indicators, how to respond to disclosures and how to use the available reporting channels.

Our prevention programme is supported by clear roles and responsibilities, and by routine communication to raise awareness across all teams engaged in lawn care and landscaping.

Annual review and continuous improvement — We review this Modern Slavery Statement, our policies, and the effectiveness of our actions at least once a year. The annual review includes analysis of audit outcomes, reports received, corrective actions taken and any changes in risk profile. Findings are used to strengthen controls, update training and refine supplier engagement. The results of the review inform our ongoing commitment to eliminate modern slavery from our operations and the wider supply chain for Lawn Mowing Kenton and related services.
