Summary

The study examines 15 Europen corporations' Supplier Codes of Conduct. The analysis concludes that there is still much progress to be made in ensuring prevention of human trafficking by these companies, not only in developing and enforcing policies and procedures, but also in engaging with external parties to help develop the right approach to fight trafficking and standardising best practices, or making the optimal methods for fighting forced labour a normal part of business.
