Modern slavery is the exploitation of people and can be a complex issue for businesses. Not only do companies risk great reputational damage through any involvement with modern slavery practices, but many organisations have no idea that modern slavery practices such as human trafficking and labour exploitation are even taking place in their supply chain to try to prevent it.
Victims of modern slavery are very often mistreated, housed in squalid accommodation, forced to work long hours and regularly have their human rights violated. Training employees in spotting the signs and performing due diligence is key to ensuring businesses are fulfilling their moral and mandatory responsibilities towards preventing modern slavery in the supply chain.
Modern slavery is a serious crime resulting in an abuse of human rights. It is constituted in the Modern Slavery Act 2015 as the offences of ‘slavery, servitude and forced or compulsory labour’ and ‘human trafficking’. Transparency is vital for addressing the role of businesses in preventing modern slavery from occurring in their supply chains and organisations.
Failure to comply with the Modern Slavery Act2015 Act can have a significant reputational impact on organisations as well as being devastating for the lives of those working in their supply chain. Awareness on modern slavery and prevention are an integral part of compliance processes and procedures. It is also important for organisations to be transparent and accountable to stakeholders, customers and the public whose lives are affected by their business activity.
The Modern Slavery Act 2015 is the main legislation in the UK which tackles with modern slavery in the supply chain. Under the Act, businesses must report annually on the measures they have taken during the financial year to ensure that slavery and human trafficking are not taking place in their own business or in their supply chains.
