Modern Slavery Statement — Commercial Building Pressure Washing

We commit to a zero-tolerance policy on all forms of modern slavery, human trafficking and forced labour across our commercial building pressure washing operations. This statement applies to our full suite of commercial pressure washing and building pressure washing services, including exterior façade cleaning, industrial surface restoration and high-rise maintenance. Our approach is grounded in respect for human rights and in practical steps to prevent, detect and remediate any instance of exploitation in the supply chain.

Our values require that every person engaged in pressure washing for commercial buildings is treated fairly, receives appropriate pay and works under safe conditions. We expect the same standards from subcontractors and suppliers who support our commercial exterior pressure washing activities, and we embed these expectations contractually.

Policy and Governance

Our governance framework sets clear accountability for modern slavery risk management in commercial building pressure washing projects. The senior management team holds ultimate responsibility for implementation and the compliance manager oversees due diligence, reporting and corrective action. We maintain a zero-tolerance stance; any confirmed breach results in termination of contracts and remedial action for affected workers.

Key commitments include:

• Risk-based due diligence on suppliers and subcontractors engaged in pressure washing for commercial properties.
• Worker protection measures including verification of age, employment eligibility and safe working practices.
• Transparent reporting channels for suspected exploitation and a process for remediation.

Our procurement contracts for commercial pressure washing require suppliers to comply with our anti-slavery terms and allow us to perform audits and inspections.

Supplier Audits and Due Diligence

We operate a risk-based supplier audit programme specific to building and commercial pressure washing supply chains. Audits combine documentation review, electronic checks and on-site assessments where appropriate. Priority is given to high-risk suppliers such as labour hire firms, equipment rental businesses and regional subcontractors.

Audit activities include verification of payroll records, contracts of employment, working hours, accommodation arrangements and recruitment fees. Findings trigger a remediation plan with defined timelines. Repeated or serious non-compliance results in contract termination and referral to relevant authorities when required.

We provide training and capacity building to suppliers focused on lawful recruitment, fair wages and safe working practices specific to pressure washing operations on commercial buildings.

Reporting channels are critical. We maintain multiple secure pathways for reporting concerns about forced labour or exploitation in commercial pressure washing projects. These include anonymous internal hotlines, designated ethics officers and escalation protocols to senior management. Reports are treated confidentially and investigated promptly. Whistleblower protections are in place to prevent retaliation.

When an issue is identified, our response follows a defined remediation process: immediate worker safety measures, investigation, corrective actions, supplier sanctions and support for victims. We document incidents and outcomes and use lessons learned to improve controls across all pressure washing for commercial buildings.

We monitor effectiveness using KPIs such as number of audits completed, percentage of high-risk suppliers assessed, and time to resolution of incidents. These metrics inform continuous improvement of our anti-slavery programme.

Training and awareness are provided to our staff, contractors and suppliers working on commercial building pressure washing projects. Training covers identification of modern slavery indicators, safe recruitment practices and how to use reporting channels. We require completion of training as part of contractor onboarding and periodically thereafter.

We also embed contractual clauses that prohibit labour exploitation, prohibit retention of identity documents, and require compliance with local labour laws for all commercial pressure washing engagements. Our procurement team screens new suppliers and includes modern slavery risk in tender evaluations.

This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually by the board and updated as necessary. The annual review considers audit results, incident data, changes in operations that affect pressure washing for commercial properties, and stakeholder feedback. Through this continuous review cycle we strengthen our prevention and response measures and reaffirm our commitment to a slave-free supply chain.

We recognise that eliminating modern slavery in the commercial pressure washing sector requires ongoing vigilance, collaboration and resources. Our company will continue to work with suppliers, industry partners and other stakeholders to uphold human rights, improve transparency and ensure that every commercial building pressure washing project we undertake is conducted ethically and lawfully.
