Forced labor has been a consistent topic in the supply chain world for years. As a result, there is a wealth of information regarding forced labor and the initiatives taken globally to act preventatively. There are multiple indicators of forced labor, including isolation, restriction of movement, withholding of wages, deception, excessive overtime, and intimidation. Many statutes address forced labor, including:
- USMCA
- Trafficking Victims Protection Act
- Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act of 2020
- Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act
