Modern Slavery Statement — Skip Hire Haringey Commitment

Skip Hire Haringey is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms across our operations and the supply chain. This modern slavery statement sets out our zero-tolerance policy and the practical steps we take as a local skip hire provider and waste management partner in Haringey and surrounding areas. We recognise that forced labour, deceptive recruitment and exploitative practices have no place in our business. Our commitment extends to every contractor, sub-contractor and supplier engaged by our skip hire services.

Our policy applies company-wide and to all variations of our service offering, whether described as skip-hire Haringey, Haringey skip hire or skip hire in Haringey. We have a zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery and human trafficking. This means we will not knowingly do business with suppliers who do not meet our standards. We require compliance with employment law, fair pay, humane working conditions and voluntary labour practices. Any breach will trigger immediate action, including contract termination and reporting to the relevant authorities.

We operate a structured supplier audit programme to ensure accountability across our procurement and contractor networks. Audits for skip hire partners in Haringey include verification of workforce records, right-to-work checks where applicable, and inspections of health and safety and working conditions. Our supplier audits use a risk-based approach that focuses on higher-risk categories such as temporary labour, transport subcontractors and third-party waste handlers. Key audit elements include:

• Document checks to confirm legal employment and payroll compliance;
• On-site reviews of working and living conditions where staff are provided by suppliers;
• Interviews (confidential) with workers to detect signs of coercion or exploitation.

We maintain clear and accessible reporting channels to enable employees, subcontractors, suppliers and members of the public to raise concerns about modern slavery or exploitation connected to our skip hire operations. Reports can be made through internal whistleblowing routes and designated reporting lines maintained by our compliance team. All reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly and handled with confidentiality. We protect whistleblowers from retaliation and ensure anonymous reporting is available where required.

Governance, Training and Continuous Improvement

Governance for modern slavery risk sits with our senior management and is integrated into our procurement and compliance frameworks. We provide regular training on modern slavery awareness for staff involved in sourcing, operations and client liaison for skip-hire Haringey services. Training covers identification of red flags, the supplier audit process and appropriate response steps. We also communicate expectations to suppliers and include modern slavery clauses in contracts as a standard requirement. Our approach emphasises prevention through supplier engagement and capacity building rather than only punitive measures.

Annual Review and Public Accountability

We conduct an annual review of our modern slavery policies, risk assessments and the effectiveness of supplier audits. The review evaluates incident records, audit findings and training uptake across all relevant teams supporting skip hire and waste collection services in Haringey. Outcomes of the annual review inform policy updates, strengthened contractual requirements and targeted supplier remediation plans. We commit to refining our approach year-on-year and to publishing an updated statement following each review cycle.

To summarise, Skip Hire Haringey adopts a proactive stance against modern slavery: a clear zero-tolerance policy, a robust supplier audit programme, confidential reporting channels and an annual governance review that drives continuous improvement. We expect every partner in our supply chain to uphold these standards. Through consistent enforcement, training and collaboration we aim to eliminate risks of exploitation from our operations and to promote ethical labour practices across all elements of skip hire and related services in Haringey.
