Increasing globalisation is making supply chains incredibly complex in a world of chaos and risk. This creates a major challenge for companies seeking to address human rights and prevent forced labour and human trafficking in their supply chain, as required by the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
According to the International Labour Organisation (ILO), almost 21 million people are currently victims of forced labour. This unethical, exploitive behaviour is a major issue in the global supply chain, where the complex use of third-party contractors and vendors by companies with a multi-national reach has made it increasingly difficult to expose and combat. It’s an issue that is also a growing concern for governments, organisations and consumers around the world.
Join us for an one-hour webinar moderated by SAI Global’s Colin Campbell to explain the challenges organisations face when it comes to modern slavery and how companies can create, categorise, and manage the complete life cycle of policies and procedures through the use of technology. Colin will be accompanied by two of the most knowledgeable subject matter experts in the industry.
The agenda will cover:
