Episode: ETI on what supply chain due diligence on labour issues looks like
Description: Peter McAllister, executive director, Ethical Trading Initiative, and Ian Welsh discuss trends in how companies are engaging with modern slavery in supply chains, and why forced labour keeps appearing in new places.
McAllister argues the case for transparency and normalising in consumer eyes that there are going to be problems and it’s how they are fixed that’s important. He outlines why businesses should adopt a due diligence approach to track labour migration, and how to ask the right questions internally for companies and when engaging with suppliers.
