Managing risks associated with modern slavery

Modern slavery
Managing risks associated with modern slavery.pdf

Written by ETI and Ergon Associates. Produced with the assistance of the International Finance Corporation (IFC), CDC Group Plc, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the UK Department for International Development (DFID).

This practical guidance is meant to support the private sector, a key actor in the fight against modern slavery. This 'good practice note' does not set new standards but aims to provide practical tools to support environmental and social due diligence, as well as monitoring processes that many investors and companies already have in place. It also aims to provide an understanding of why action is necessary, how to manage and address issues, and the need for cooperation with others.
