Our standard payment terms for our suppliers paid through our accounts payable process is 30 days. However, we do have a range of payment terms which are negotiated with individual suppliers on a case by case basis. In addition to our normal payment processes, we also make a significant number of payments through our network of funeral locations. These payments generally represent disbursements incurred on behalf of our customers and, as such, are not subject to our formal payment terms and conditions. We have included these suppliers within our reporting. We endeavour to pay these suppliers promptly (usually within 7-14 days of receipt of invoice or provision of service).

Dignity aims to resolve all disputes promptly and will normally do so by contacting suppliers directly. Any disputes over payments are directed to the accounts department. Disputes can be escalated up the management chain if subsequently required.
For example, signatories to The Prompt Payment Code must commit to paying 95% of their invoices within 60 days.
