Modern Slavery Statement for Industrial Pressure Washing Services

This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the commitments and actions of our industrial pressure washing services operation to prevent modern slavery, human trafficking and forced labour across our workforce and supply chain. We deliver industrial pressure washing, industrial cleaning services and commercial pressure washing solutions, and we recognise our responsibility to maintain transparent, ethical practices. Our statement reflects a zero tolerance approach and a pledge to continuous improvement across all sectors of our industrial power washing activities.

We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery within our pressure washing services and related contractors. Zero tolerance means immediate action where risks are identified: suspension of suppliers pending investigation, termination of non-compliant contracts and appropriate remedial steps to protect workers. We require all teams engaged in industrial surface cleaning, high-pressure wash projects and maintenance wash contracts to adhere to these standards and to report any concerns promptly.

Our supplier audits and due diligence processes are central to preventing exploitation. We conduct pre-qualification screening and periodic supplier performance assessments for companies providing equipment, labour or subcontracted industrial power washing support. Key audit activities include:

• Risk assessment of supplier labour practices and geographic exposure to exploitation;
• Document checks, including right-to-work verification and payroll audits;
• On-site inspections and worker interviews during routine industrial cleaning contracts;
• Corrective action plans and follow-up audits until compliance is demonstrated.

Reporting Channels and Whistleblowing

We maintain confidential reporting channels for employees, subcontractors and stakeholders to raise concerns related to modern slavery in pressure washing operations. Reports can be raised internally through line managers and designated compliance officers, and anonymously via our secure reporting mechanisms. We treat all reports with confidentiality, protect whistleblowers from retaliation and investigate allegations thoroughly and impartially. All reported incidents lead to documented investigations and, where necessary, escalation to legal or regulatory authorities.

Policies, Training and Supplier Engagement

To embed responsible practices across our industrial cleaning and pressure washing service lines, we provide targeted training for staff and contractors on identifying signs of forced labour, debt bondage and deceptive recruitment. Training is mandatory for recruitment teams, operations managers and site supervisors who manage heavy-duty wash teams and high-risk contracts. We require suppliers to sign our code of conduct and to demonstrate active measures to prevent modern slavery in their operations.

Our procurement and contract management include clear contractual clauses that address labour standards, remediation obligations and the right to audit. We prioritise suppliers who can demonstrate ethical recruitment practices, fair wage policies and transparent subcontracting. Where risks are elevated, we implement additional controls such as third-party verification, enhanced site visits during industrial pressure washing contracts and collaborative improvement plans.

Monitoring and annual review are core to our accountability. We publish and review this statement each year to evaluate the effectiveness of our actions across the industrial pressure washing and power washing services we provide. The annual review considers audit outcomes, training completion rates, incident reports and remediation progress. Findings drive updates to policies, escalation protocols and supplier selection criteria.

We use measurable indicators to track progress, including the number of supplier audits completed, corrective actions closed, and awareness training hours delivered to teams working on industrial cleaning contracts. Continuous improvement guides our approach: where gaps are found we implement corrective measures and re-audit until satisfactory standards are met.

In summary, our industrial pressure washing services business is committed to preventing modern slavery through a zero-tolerance policy, robust supplier audits, clear reporting channels and a rigorous annual review process. We will continue to strengthen collaboration with suppliers, workers and industry partners to ensure that our heavy-duty cleaning, pressure wash and industrial maintenance operations are free from exploitation and uphold the highest standards of worker welfare.
