Developments in Human Trafficking and Forced Labor Prevention

  • Summary

  • In this solo episode of the Hidden Traffic Podcast, host Gwen Hassan discusses recent developments in human trafficking and forced labor prevention. She shares with listeners a snapshot of where Hidden Traffic is headed over the next few months as 2022 draws to a close. There has been a flurry of activity around the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, Gwen claims. It has been driving broader conversations among companies about their supply chains, serving as an impetus to examine where they source their products from and if they have been enabling entities that violate human rights. Even companies that are truly domestic have now started full-scale risk assessment processes for forced labor risk within their supply chain. It really has stemmed from UFLPA work, because many of them are concerned they may have private label goods that are manufactured for them under a contract manufacturing arrangement overseas. They've become aware of the fact that they may be caught up in a forced labor situation, even if it's not their own labor or their own manufacturing. Resources Gwen Hassan on LinkedIn
