SYDNEY - Australian NGO Fair Supply has published a research paper examining the effectiveness of Canada’s recently introduced legislation aimed at identifying forced labour and child labour in the country’s supply chains.
The paper delves into the ‘Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act’ which, after coming into force in January 2024, stipulates that an institution producing, purchasing or distributing goods in Canada or elsewhere must, on or before 31 May of each year, make a report publicly available on its measures to reduce forced and child labour.
