Skip Hire Bromley Modern Slavery Statement

Our commitment as a leading skip hire Bromley operator

This statement sets out the steps that Skip Hire Bromley and its affiliates take to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. We recognise that the waste management and skip hire sector can be exposed to labour risk, and we will not tolerate any form of forced labour, bonded labour, or human trafficking. Our commitment applies across all activities including skip collection, transfer, materials processing and subcontracted services provided within Bromley and externally.

Zero‑tolerance policy and expectations

We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery. All employees, contractors and partners engaged with our Bromley skip hire services must adhere to this policy. We require compliance with applicable employment law, pay minimum wages, and prohibit the retention of identity documents or any practice that restricts freedom of movement. Our policy is clearly communicated in recruitment, on contracts and in supplier agreements. Anyone found to be complicit in modern slavery will face contractual termination and appropriate legal action.

Supplier due diligence and supplier audits form a core part of our approach. We conduct risk-based assessments of suppliers to identify where the risk of exploitation is greatest and carry out regular audits, both on-site and remote, to verify compliance. These reviews include checks on:

Key audit areas include:

• Verification of worker identity and right to work;
• Review of wage records and working hours;
• Confirmation of voluntary employment and freedom to leave;
• Health and safety compliance and accommodation conditions where provided;
• Contractual terms that prohibit labour-hire practices that risk exploitation.

Reporting channels and support mechanisms are available to all staff, suppliers and third parties who wish to raise concerns. We provide confidential reporting routes through internal channels, anonymous whistleblowing pathways and escalation to senior management. Reports are investigated promptly, with protections for whistleblowers and support for affected workers. We encourage early reporting of any suspicious activity related to the supply chain for both skip-hire Bromley operations and contracted partners.

To ensure robustness, our compliance programme includes regular training for staff and contractors, contractual clauses requiring anti-slavery compliance from suppliers, and the use of corrective action plans where non-compliance is identified. We also employ proportionate measures such as supplier re-assessment, immediate suspension of services and collaboration with relevant enforcement bodies if necessary. Our Bromley skip hire procurement teams are trained to integrate modern slavery considerations into tender evaluation and supplier onboarding.

We maintain clear governance and oversight. The board receives regular updates on modern slavery risks and mitigation activities in relation to skip hire in Bromley and beyond. Our anti-slavery champion coordinates cross-departmental activity to ensure consistent implementation of policy, and we document findings from audits and investigations to drive continuous improvement.

Annual review: we commit to an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and our associated policies, to assess effectiveness, refresh risk assessments and update our actions. The review process includes analysis of audit results, reported incidents, remediation outcomes and changes in our operational footprint. Where necessary, we will adjust our supplier controls and training to reflect evolving risks. By embedding these practices into the culture of Skip Hire Bromley, we reaffirm our pledge to a responsible supply chain and the eradication of modern slavery in all forms.
