Modern Slavery Statement — House Clearance Millbank

House Clearance Millbank is committed to eradicating any form of modern slavery, human trafficking or forced labour across our operations and supply chain. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our policies, the steps we take and our expectations of suppliers and partners. We adopt a zero-tolerance policy towards any practices that may involve exploitation, and we will act decisively where risks are identified. Our Millbank house clearance teams are trained to recognise signs of coercion and to prioritise ethical working practices in every clearance, removal and disposal project.

Our Zero-Tolerance Policy and Commitments

We operate a strict and enforceable zero-tolerance approach. All employees, subcontractors and partners engaged in house clearance in Millbank must comply with our Code of Conduct. Any breach, including the use of forced or bonded labour, confiscation of identity documents, or withholding of wages, will result in immediate action which may include contract termination and referral to the appropriate authorities. We require that all vendors confirm in writing their compliance with anti-slavery laws and our contractual terms.

Supplier Due Diligence and Audits

To manage modern slavery risks in our supply chain, Millbank clearance services include a programme of supplier audits and assessments. Our supplier review process comprises:

• Pre-engagement screening to evaluate labour practices and legal compliance;
• Periodic audits of high-risk suppliers, including site visits and documentation checks;
• Corrective action plans where concerns are found, with timelines for remediation.

Monitoring and Reporting Channels

We provide clear, confidential reporting channels to ensure that concerns about potential slavery or human trafficking can be raised without fear of retaliation. Staff and third parties can report issues through our internal reporting mechanisms, anonymously where necessary. All reports are investigated promptly by a designated compliance officer and documented. We maintain a robust whistleblowing process that protects reporters and ensures transparent follow-up.

Training, Risk Assessment and Contractor Checks

House Clearance at Millbank includes compulsory training for all employees and contractors on identifying and responding to signs of exploitation. Regular risk assessments evaluate geographic, sector and role-based vulnerabilities in our operations. Contractors must provide evidence of fair working conditions, right-to-work documentation and adherence to pay laws as part of contract onboarding. We continue to strengthen preventive measures through ongoing training and supplier engagement.

We also use contractual clauses to obligate suppliers to maintain records and permit audits. Non-compliance triggers a formal review and, where necessary, termination of the business relationship. These measures underpin our commitment to responsible clearance services in Millbank and nearby areas.

Risk mitigation extends beyond audits. We embed modern slavery considerations into procurement, tender evaluation and performance monitoring for all Millbank clearance services. Regular data collection and analysis enable us to identify trends and prioritise resources toward areas of highest risk. Our procurement teams include anti-slavery criteria in supplier scorecards and contract renewals.

Supplier performance is monitored through scheduled reviews. Where deficiencies are identified we require corrective action and work collaboratively with suppliers to improve practices. Failure to reach acceptable standards within agreed timescales will result in cessation of contracts.

We will review this Modern Slavery Statement annually to assess the effectiveness of our actions and update our approach in line with emerging risks and legal developments. The annual review will consider audit outcomes, incident reports, supplier performance and employee training completion rates. Our commitment to eliminating modern slavery from our operations and supply chain is ongoing, and House Clearance Millbank will continue to allocate resources to ensure transparency, accountability and continuous improvement in everything we do.
