Modern Slavery Statement for End of Tenancy Cleaning

End of Tenancy Cleaning is committed to conducting business ethically and responsibly. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our approach to preventing modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that zero tolerance is essential, and we expect the same commitment from everyone we work with. Our standards apply across all activities linked to end of tenancy cleaning services, from procurement to service delivery.

We understand that modern slavery can affect people in many forms, including debt bondage, restricted movement, withholding of wages, and coercion. To help reduce this risk, End of Tenancy Cleaning follows a clear policy framework based on respect, fairness, and accountability. We aim to ensure that all workers involved in our Endoftenancy Cleaning activities are treated lawfully and with dignity, and we monitor for signs of abuse in our business relationships.

Our zero-tolerance policy means we will not knowingly work with any supplier, contractor, or partner involved in slavery or human trafficking. This applies to all areas of our end of tenancy cleaning operations, including materials, transport, subcontracting, and staffing support. If any concern is identified, it is investigated promptly, and action is taken where necessary, which may include suspension or termination of the relationship.

Supplier Due Diligence and Audits

Supplier screening is a key part of our prevention strategy. Before engagement, we assess business practices, ownership structure, labour controls, and evidence of ethical conduct. Existing suppliers are reviewed through periodic supplier audits and risk-based checks. These audits may include document reviews, workforce verification, and confirmation that employment practices comply with relevant laws and ethical standards.

We place particular focus on higher-risk categories such as temporary labour, subcontracted services, and product sourcing. In these areas, End of Tenancy Cleaning may request written declarations, supporting records, and corrective action plans. Where appropriate, we reserve the right to carry out more frequent audits or request additional assurance. This helps strengthen the integrity of our end of tenancy cleaning services and supports continuous improvement across the supply chain.

If a supplier fails to meet our expectations, we require immediate remediation. Where remediation is not possible or progress is unsatisfactory, we will end the relationship. Our approach is designed to prevent exploitation before it occurs and to ensure that our cleaning business remains aligned with ethical and legal obligations.

Reporting Channels and Response

We encourage anyone connected with our operations to report concerns in good faith. Reporting channels are available for workers, suppliers, managers, and third parties to raise suspected cases of modern slavery, unsafe treatment, or unethical conduct. All concerns are treated seriously, reviewed promptly, and handled with discretion. Reports may be made through internal management routes, and individuals are protected from retaliation for speaking up.

When a report is received, Endoftenancy Cleaning assesses the risk, gathers relevant facts, and decides on appropriate action. This may include interviewing relevant parties, reviewing records, or escalating the issue to senior management. If a potential case of exploitation is identified, we will cooperate with the proper authorities and take immediate steps to reduce harm. We maintain a clear reporting process so that our end of tenancy cleaning operations remain safe and ethical.

Training supports our reporting culture by helping staff recognise warning signs such as control over documents, unexplained fear, or restricted pay. Awareness is especially important in service industries where work may be outsourced or involve short-term labour. We reinforce that speaking up is a responsibility, not a risk.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement

This End of Tenancy Cleaning modern slavery statement is reviewed annually to confirm that it remains effective and relevant. The review considers supplier audit results, incident reports, legal developments, and any changes in our operating model. Senior management oversees the process and may update policies, controls, and training based on emerging risks.

We use the annual review to strengthen our procedures and enhance accountability across the organisation. This includes refreshing due diligence checks, improving documentation, and refining escalation steps where needed. By revisiting our controls each year, Endoftenancy Cleaning demonstrates ongoing commitment to ethical conduct and the prevention of modern slavery in all parts of our business.

Our statement reflects a long-term commitment to responsible practice. We will continue to improve, monitor, and act on risks as they arise, ensuring our end of tenancy cleaning services are delivered with integrity, respect, and transparency.
