The horrors and injustices of modern slavery and human trafficking exist worldwide and can happen anywhere. To keep them out of the workplace, the supply chain and beyond, organizations need to train employees to know the warning signs and take the proper action.
Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking: Canadian Edition reflects Canada’s Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act. It helps learners understand how these crimes happen, what they can look like and how to spot the warning signs. With this knowledge, learners then explore what to do if they suspect it, as well as the role they play in ensuring supply chain partners are socially and ethically responsible.
When employees know how to spot the signs of modern slavery and human trafficking, they can take the necessary steps to ensure an ethical and responsible culture. That makes training a critical piece for organizations committed to ending these unjust practices.
