Frontline commercial waste collection in Camden Town; company commitment to anti-slavery This Modern Slavery Statement explains the approach of Commercial Waste Camden Town to prevent modern slavery, forced labour and human trafficking across our operations and supply chain.

Our Zero-Tolerance Policy

Commercial Waste Camden Town operates a zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery. We will not knowingly engage with suppliers, partners or workers involved in exploitation, coercion or other forms of forced labour. All staff are required to adhere to our code of conduct and escalation procedures; breaches are treated as severe misconduct and will lead to disciplinary action, contract termination and referral to the appropriate authorities where necessary.

A family of four, consisting of a father, mother, and two children, standing outside a stone building with a white door in the background. They are holding bright green plastic storage boxes typically used for rubbish or waste collection, with one box in each person's hands. The father, wearing a plaid shirt and jeans, stands on the left, smiling and looking at the camera, holding a box down by his side. The mother, dressed in a white blouse and jeans, stands on the right, also smiling, holding a box close to her torso. The two children, a girl and a boy, stand between their parents, each holding a box, with the girl in a grey sweater and jeans and the boy in a striped shirt and jeans. The scene is set on a small grassy area adjacent to the stone wall, with natural daylight illuminating the family and the surrounding environment, which suggests a typical rubbish collection or waste disposal context associated with domestic waste management services in Camden Town or similar areas. The scope of this statement includes refuse handling, collection, recycling, disposal and ancillary services in Camden Town. We recognise that the waste management sector can present vulnerabilities, particularly in subcontracted labour, temporary staffing and cross-border supply chains. Our aim is to reduce risk through clear policies, proactive monitoring and collaborative engagement with the industry and local stakeholders.

Supplier Due Diligence and Audits

We assess suppliers using a risk-based approach, prioritising those providing labour, logistics and processing services. Supplier audits and on-site inspections form a core part of our due diligence. Typical audit criteria include:

  • Verification of right to work and labour contracts
  • Evidence of wage compliance and working hours
  • Health and safety and living conditions assessments
  • Subcontractor management and chain of custody transparency

A large commercial waste collection vehicle, painted in dark grey with reflective red and white safety markings, is parked on a paved surface under a clear blue sky. The vehicle features an enclosed rear compactor area designed for rubbish collection, with a hydraulic lifting mechanism at the rear for loading waste bins. On top of the truck, a smaller green skip is visible, filled with a mixture of waste materials including white plastic bags, cardboard, and other refuse. The surrounding environment appears to be an open, outdoor space, possibly a waste disposal or recycling yard, with a flat, paved surface and a slight upward slope in the background. The truck's wheels and tires are visible, and the overall scene is well-lit with natural daylight, highlighting the metallic and plastic textures of the vehicle and waste materials. This image is relevant to rubbish removal services offered by Commercial Waste Camden Town, located in the London Borough, and showcases typical equipment used in waste collection operations in the area. Audits are conducted both by trained internal teams and by independent third parties where increased risk is identified. Findings lead to action plans with clear timelines; failure to remediate serious issues results in contract suspension or termination. We strongly encourage suppliers to adopt the same standards and to cascade expectations to their own subcontractors.

We maintain multiple reporting channels to ensure concerns about modern slavery can be raised safely. These include internal confidential reporting mechanisms, a protected whistleblowing process, and the option to report issues anonymously. Reports are investigated promptly and impartially, and we protect whistleblowers from retaliation. Our governance framework ensures that every report is tracked to closure and that lessons learned inform future prevention activity.

A young man with light brown hair and a friendly smile, wearing a light pink short-sleeved shirt, is standing outside in front of a brick building with a white-framed window. He is holding a large blue plastic recycling bin with a white recycling symbol printed on the side, filled with various waste items including paper, cardboard, plastic bottles, and other general rubbish. The scene is set on a paved driveway or pathway with green bushes and white flowers in the background, suggesting a residential area in Camden Town, London. The sky is bright, indicating a clear day, and the overall environment appears clean and well-maintained. This image relates to rubbish collection and waste disposal services provided by Commercial Waste Camden Town, emphasizing the importance of proper waste management and recycling practices in the local community. Training forms part of our prevention strategy: staff, managers and procurement teams receive mandatory training on recognising modern slavery indicators, risk mitigation and reporting procedures. We also run targeted training for site supervisors and partners involved in collection and transfer operations in Camden Town. Regular communications keep the topic visible and reinforce our expectations.

Three large plastic wheelie bins are lined up outdoors on a paved surface, with the red bin closest to the foreground, followed by a yellow bin in the middle, and a dark green bin in the background. The bins have textured plastic surfaces and are equipped with sturdy handles for lifting and manoeuvring. They are positioned parallel to each other along a curb or driveway, with a grassy area visible behind them. The scene is well-lit, suggesting daylight, and the bins are likely used for waste disposal in a residential or commercial setting, consistent with rubbish removal services in Camden Town. The image highlights the practical aspect of waste management containers, which are central to efficient rubbish collection and disposal processes managed by companies like Commercial Waste Camden Town. Risk assessment and continuous monitoring underpin our approach to commercial waste in Camden Town. We map our supply chain, review high-risk categories and implement proportionate controls. Where necessary we engage independent experts to test processes and validate compliance. We believe transparency builds resilience and reduces the likelihood of exploitation throughout the waste management lifecycle.

Supplier audit outcomes are managed through corrective action plans, with timescales and verification requirements. Where suppliers fail to meet agreed standards and do not implement remedial steps, we will suspend or terminate relationships. We also seek to support suppliers to improve by sharing good practice and connecting them with capability-building resources.
