Webcast Overview
Forced labor enforcement is rapidly reshaping trade compliance, moving from government expectations to binding trade restrictions with real business consequences. Continued enforcement under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA), new U.S. Section 301 tariffs targeting forced labor practices, and the EU Forced Labor Regulation (EUFLR) are creating distinct yet overlapping challenges for companies with global supply chains.
KPMG LLP (KPMG) is pleased to invite you to a TradeWatch webcast examining this evolving landscape and its practical implications for global business. KPMG Trade & Customs professionals, joined by Isabelle Glimcher from the NYU Stern Center for Business and Human Rights, will share regulatory insights and real-world considerations for companies working to build robust anti-forced labor programs.
Please join our speakers as they discuss:
- The evolving regulatory landscape: Why forced labor has become a core trade compliance and market access issue across jurisdictions, and the resulting business, operational, and reputational risks.
- U.S. and EU forced labor enforcement frameworks: Key UFLPA, Section 301, and EUFLR requirements and recent developments, including how U.S. and EU regimes compare with respect legal mechanisms, burdens of proof, enforcement triggers, and potential business consequences.
- Building a comprehensive global compliance program: How companies can leverage and evolve their existing UFLPA compliance framework to develop a scalable, risk-based global program that addresses continued and emerging requirements, strengthening traceability, documentation, and cross-functional governance, including data and analytics needed to successfully manage risk.
