Soho House Clearance: Modern Slavery Statement and Commitment
Soho House Clearance affirms its commitment to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking across all operations. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the policies and measures adopted by Soho House clearance services and SohoHouse Clearance teams to ensure that forced labour, child labour and human exploitation have no place in our business or supply chain. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of modern slavery and are committed to continuous improvement.
We recognise that risks can arise in complex supply chains for clearance, removals, disposal and related services. Our Soho House Clearance policy requires all employees, contractors and partners to adhere to ethical labour standards, respect human rights and report any concerns. The policy is supported by mandatory training modules, contract clauses and procurement controls designed to minimise risk and to ensure transparency.
As part of our approach to responsible sourcing, supplier audits and supplier due diligence are key. We conduct risk-based assessments of suppliers offering clearance services, waste management, transportation and storage. Where necessary, we perform on-site inspections, review payroll and employment records, and require corrective action plans. The supplier audit programme is structured to identify labour rights violations and to ensure compliance with our standards.
Policies, Procedures and Reporting Channels
Our procedures include clear contractual obligations for suppliers, mandatory modern slavery clauses and the right to terminate relationships with suppliers who breach our standards. We have established multiple, confidential reporting channels that enable staff, contractors and third parties to raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Reports can be made through internal reporting systems and anonymous whistleblowing mechanisms. All reports are treated seriously and are investigated promptly.
Investigation protocols are documented and maintained to ensure consistency. When a potential modern slavery case is identified, our response includes immediate risk mitigation, protection for victims, engagement with relevant authorities and corrective remediation with the supplier. Soho House Clearance Ltd insists on fair treatment for affected individuals and seeks to remediate harms resulting from non-compliance.
We also encourage responsible purchasing practices within the organisation. Procurement teams follow a risk-based supplier segmentation, prioritising higher-risk categories for detailed scrutiny. Our internal audit and compliance functions coordinate with procurement to ensure that supplier audits, contract monitoring and performance reviews are integrated into supplier management cycles.
Training, Monitoring and Annual Review
Training is a core element of our prevention strategy. All staff involved in sourcing, contract management and site operations receive regular training on recognising signs of exploitation, appropriate escalation routes and how to support vulnerable individuals. We promote awareness across the business so that reporting channels are well-known and accessible.
Monitoring includes periodic reviews of supplier performance metrics, audit outcomes and corrective actions. We maintain records of supplier audits and remediation plans and follow up to confirm that required changes are implemented. Supplier audits feed into our continuous improvement cycle and inform where further engagement or contract termination is necessary.
This statement is reviewed annually by senior management and the board to assess effectiveness and to update measures in line with evolving risks and regulatory expectations. The annual review includes analysis of incident reports, audit findings, training completion rates and progress on remediation activities. Through this ongoing process, Soho House clearance services reaffirms its duty to eradicate modern slavery and to uphold the highest standards of human dignity across our operations and supply chain.
