Muswell Hill House Clearance Modern Slavery Statement

This Modern Slavery Statement is issued by Muswell Hill House Clearance and sets out our commitments to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms across our operations and supply chains. We recognise our responsibility to uphold human rights and maintain ethical standards in every project, whether listed as Muswell Hill house clearance or referenced in other terms across contracting and subcontracting activities.

Our policy and scope

We operate a zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery. This policy applies to all employees, contractors, suppliers and business partners engaged by Muswell Hill clearance services. We require that anyone working on behalf of the company adheres to the highest standards of integrity and respect for worker rights. The policy is regularly communicated, accessible to staff, and forms part of contractual terms with suppliers.

Zero-tolerance approach

We maintain a strict stance: any instance or credible allegation of forced labour, exploitation, bonded labour, or human trafficking is investigated. Where breaches are identified we will take robust action, which may include contract termination and referral to law enforcement. We will not tolerate any compromise of worker welfare in our house clearance operations, whether operating as Muswell Hill House-Clearance teams on site or engaging third-party removal specialists.

Due diligence and risk assessment

We conduct regular risk assessments to identify areas where modern slavery risks may arise. These assessments consider geographic risk, service types, use of subcontractors and employment practices. Our due diligence process includes pre-engagement checks and ongoing monitoring. Where higher risk is identified, we deploy enhanced scrutiny and require evidence of ethical labour practices from suppliers.

Supplier audits and supply chain controls

To ensure compliance we implement a programme of supplier audits and performance checks. Our approach includes:

• Initial supplier screening to verify legal compliance and labour standards;
• Regular audits — both desk-based and on-site where necessary — focusing on recruitment practices, wages, and working conditions;
• Contract clauses requiring suppliers to confirm they do not use forced or trafficked labour;
• Corrective action plans for any non-conformance, with clear timelines and escalation routes.

We use a mix of self-assessments and third-party verification for high-risk providers, and we document findings to inform continuous improvement.

Our supplier engagement emphasises transparency and collaboration. We encourage open dialogue and expect full cooperation during audit processes.

Reporting channels and whistleblowing We maintain secure and confidential reporting channels for employees, sub-contractors and supply partners to raise concerns. Reports can be raised anonymously and will be handled promptly and impartially. All reports are taken seriously and investigated. Retaliation against a whistleblower will not be tolerated, and we commit to protecting those who raise concerns in good faith.

Training, awareness and responsibility

Education and awareness are central to preventing modern slavery. We provide targeted training to staff, managers and procurement teams involved in house clearance and clearance logistics. This training covers the identification of red flags, how to report concerns, and the obligations of suppliers. Line managers are accountable for day-to-day compliance and for ensuring contractual partners meet our standards.

Monitoring, remediation and continuous improvement We monitor the effectiveness of our measures through audit outcomes, supplier performance metrics and incident response reviews. Where issues are identified, we will implement remediation plans that prioritise the welfare of affected individuals and seek to restore fair working conditions quickly. Muswell Hill house clearance operations will apply corrective measures and, where necessary, cease relationships with persistent non-compliant suppliers.

Governance and annual review Our Board and senior management are responsible for oversight of this Modern Slavery Statement and the effectiveness of prevention measures. The statement is reviewed at least annually to reflect legislative changes, audit findings and evolving best practice. We commit to publishing updates and ensuring that policies remain robust and relevant across all Muswell Hill clearance services.

Conclusion This statement reflects our ongoing commitment to combat modern slavery in all forms across Muswell Hill House Clearance and associated operations. Through clear policies, supplier audits, protected reporting channels, and an annual review cycle we strive to protect human rights and promote ethical supply chain practices.
