Modern Slavery Statement — Office Clearance Honor Oak

Company declaration header image representing commitment This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the commitment of Office Clearance Honor Oak to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in all areas of our business and supply chain. We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of forced labour, bonded labour, child exploitation or human trafficking, and we expect the same standards from our contractors, suppliers and partners involved in any Honor Oak office clearance or related services.

Our policy applies to all employees, contractors and third parties engaged to support Honor Oak office clearance activities and broader office clearance in Honor Oak operations. The policy defines modern slavery risks, the legal framework we follow and the responsibilities of management and staff. We require managers to ensure that recruitment, payment and working conditions are transparent and that no fees are charged to workers by recruitment agencies.

Illustration of governance and board oversight The Board has appointed a senior executive with responsibility for anti-slavery compliance and oversight of our supplier relationships. Contractual clauses require suppliers to confirm they operate compliant labour standards and to grant us the right to audit where necessary. We expect all suppliers contributing to an Honor Oak office clearance project to adhere to our standards and to cooperate fully with any investigations into suspected violations.

Due Diligence and Supplier Audits

We undertake risk-based due diligence across our supply chain for office clearance and reuse activities, including an assessment of recruitment practices, third-party labour providers and waste handling partners. Our approach to supplier audits includes:

  • Pre-engagement screening of new suppliers for labour practice risks;
  • Periodic scheduled audits and targeted unannounced inspections;
  • Remediation plans and follow-up assessments where non-compliance is found.

Image symbolizing supplier audits and inspections We maintain supplier performance metrics and require documented evidence of pay, working hours and identity checks. Where modern slavery risks are identified in subcontractors supporting office clearance projects, we work with the supplier to implement corrective actions and, where necessary, escalate contractual consequences including suspension or termination.

Supplier audits are complemented by training for our procurement and operations teams to ensure they can recognise red flags such as withheld documents, excessive recruitment fees, or restricted worker movement during Office Clearance Honor Oak assignments.

Reporting Channels, Monitoring and Remediation

We provide clear, accessible reporting channels for employees and supply chain workers to raise concerns, including anonymous reporting mechanisms and safe internal escalation routes. Reports are handled confidentially and investigated promptly. We protect whistleblowers from retaliation and ensure fair treatment of any workers affected by our investigations.

Graphic representing monitoring and remediation actions Our monitoring framework includes key performance indicators such as audit completion rates, number of corrective actions implemented and training completion percentages. When issues are confirmed, remediation may include restitution, changes to working conditions, contractual sanctions or collaboration with authorities where appropriate. We will never ignore evidence of exploitation.

Seal indicating annual review and board approval This statement is subject to an annual review to assess effectiveness and to drive continuous improvement. The review considers audit outcomes, risk mapping, training results and stakeholder feedback and is presented to senior management and the Board for approval. As part of our commitment to transparency, we will update policies and practices to strengthen prevention, detection and remediation across all office clearance and Honor Oak operations.

Office Clearance Honor Oak recognises that eliminating modern slavery requires ongoing vigilance, collaboration with supply chain partners and a culture of ethical procurement. Our ambition is to ensure every clearance is conducted with respect for human rights and without exploitation.

We will continue to invest in supplier engagement, regular audits, workforce training and robust reporting channels. By maintaining a firm zero-tolerance approach, conducting proportionate supplier audits and ensuring accessible reporting mechanisms, Office Clearance Honor Oak affirms its responsibility to prevent modern slavery and to act swiftly and transparently where issues arise.

Signed on behalf of Office Clearance Honor Oak: this statement has been approved at the highest level and will be reviewed annually to ensure continued relevance and effectiveness in safeguarding human rights across our operations and supply chain.
