Why Join?
Modern slavery is far more common, and far closer to everyday business, than most people assume. According to the IOM, on any given day, an estimated 50 million people are living in modern slavery — nearly one in every 150 people in the world. Of these, around 28 million are in forced labour. And it is not a problem confined to distant or developing economies: more than half of all forced labour is found in upper-middle income or high-income countries.
This means the risk reaches into the operations and supply chains of ordinary, well-run, listed companies. For this reason and given the increasing emergence of regulation, investor expectations, identifying, preventing and addressing modern slavery should be an essential part of responsible human rights and supply chain management. Engaging with this topic is not an admission that something is wrong. It is a mark of a well-governed, prepared business — one that understands where its risks sit and is taking credible steps to manage them.
This workshop is designed to give you that footing: clear, practical and grounded in international standards, without assuming prior expertise.
What you'll gain
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Recognise what modern slavery is, the forms it can take, and how and where these risks can arise — both within an organisation's own operations and across its supply chains.
- Understand the key international standards, frameworks and regulatory expectations shaping labour and human rights due diligence, and what they ask of businesses and market participants.
- Apply a practical, staged approach — prepare, align, implement and communicate — to identify, prevent, address and report on modern slavery risk in a way that is credible and proportionate.
