WASHINGTON - Despite US efforts to curb apparel imports made with forced labour, goods produced with forced labour may still be entering the US supply chain through indirect routes, such as from countries like Bangladesh and Vietnam, according to a new report.
A new analysis commissioned by the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) raises concerns that laws like the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) may not be sufficient to prevent forced labour goods from reaching American consumers.
