How corporations are managing compliance with anti-forced labor regulations
A recent KPMG human rights survey illuminates multinational corporations’ efforts in addressing the issue of forced labor.
Although U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) and international trade authorities across the globe are raising the bar on anti-forced-labor measures to ensure that companies understand and trace all elements of their production processes and supply chain, the following survey report illustrates that many companies aren’t keeping pace with these global regulatory mandates.
Multinational corporations can lead the way in safeguarding the rights of the world’s most vulnerable individuals and communities.
As we seek to tackle the daunting global issue of forced labor in the supply chain, it is important to remember that human rights are the basic rights and freedoms belonging to every person in the world, regardless of their race, religion, nationality, gender, or other characteristics. While many companies are appropriately concerned about these issues, progress is needed, from making greater investments of time and budget to forging mutually beneficial partnerships with other organizations dedicated to responsible sourcing and fair labor.
