Introduction to Modern Slavery – Webinar with YORhub
Event/Workshop
GB
Tuesday, 27 February 2024, 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM
What is this session about?
With an estimated 49.6 million victims of modern slavery worldwide, and an estimated 100,000 victims in the UK in 2020, reports of the value of at-risk products consumed by G20 countries annually totals $354 billion.
No supply chain can be considered risk free, and with increasing regulatory due diligence requirements, focus from the investment community through ESG reporting, and more informed consumer expectations, organisations need to raise the bar when it comes to tackling modern slavery issues.
