Scope and Application

This statement applies to all Carpet Clean activities, including procurement of equipment, cleaning supplies and contracted services. Our policy reaches beyond direct employees to subcontractors, temporary labour and partner organisations. We use the terms Carpet Cleaning, Carpet Clean services and Carpet Clean company interchangeably to describe our commitment to ethical standards in the cleaning sector. Carpet Clean requires alignment with our expectations as part of contractual terms and supplier onboarding.

The overall scene appears to depict professional cleaning staff prepared for house or office cleaning tasks, emphasizing cleanliness and readiness, with subtle regional links to London or the UK through the context of professional cleaning services.Supplier Due Diligence and Audits

Carpet Clean undertakes robust supplier due diligence to mitigate risks of modern slavery. This includes risk-based audits, review of labour practices, and verification of worker rights. We prioritise suppliers who demonstrate compliance with labour laws, provide fair wages, and maintain safe working conditions. Audit activities include document reviews, site visits and interviews where appropriate, and are designed to identify red flags such as restricted movement, withheld wages, excessive working hours or lack of contractual transparency.

Audits are complemented by training for procurement and operational teams to spot indicators of exploitation. Where concerns are identified, CarpetClean will require remediation plans, ongoing monitoring and, where necessary, termination of relationships with suppliers who fail to remedy breaches. Our approach combines prevention, detection and remediation to ensure our carpet cleaning supply ecosystem operates ethically.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

Carpet Clean encourages all workers, contractors and stakeholders to raise concerns through dedicated reporting channels. We maintain confidential and secure mechanisms for reporting suspected modern slavery or unethical practices. Reports are treated seriously and investigated promptly by trained personnel. Carpet Clean protects whistleblowers from retaliation and supports safe disclosure, recognising that transparency is essential to eradicating modern slavery from our operations.

Key elements of our reporting approach include:

  • Anonymous reporting options for those who cannot disclose identity;
  • Independent investigation procedures to ensure impartial review of allegations;
  • Protection and support measures for affected workers while investigations proceed.

Policies, Contracts and Training

Carpet Clean embeds anti-slavery clauses in supplier contracts, requires compliance with ethical standards, and integrates modern slavery awareness into staff induction and ongoing training. Procurement teams evaluate suppliers on ethical criteria as part of contract award and renewal processes. We use a combination of contractual obligations, performance monitoring and capacity building to encourage continuous improvement across the supply base.
