Forced Labor Due Diligence Solution for Importers
Uncover hidden forced labor risks in your supply chain to maintain market access and protect your brand.
An Evolving Regulatory Landscape for Forced Labor
Nations around the globe are cracking down on forced labor in supply chains. Manufacturers need to proactively screen their supply chains for evidence of forced labor and other human rights abuses.
In the U.S., Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) compliance requires that companies complete due diligence on high-risk materials to prove they are not sourced from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) of China.
In the EU, numerous supply chain sustainability regulations, such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (SCDDA), require documented programs to eliminate forced labor from parts and products.
Without a system to collect and validate this supply chain data, your global market access is at risk.

New Forced Labor Data Challenges for Manufacturers
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data, like forced labor analysis, has grown from a “nice to have” to a “must-have.” But collecting forced labor data presents all sorts of challenges:
- Forced labor is often not self-disclosed, requiring additional screening
- Suppliers lack knowledge on ESG topics
- Data can be full of gaps as you look deeper into the supply chain
The Worst Risks Are Hidden in Your Supply Chain
Complex supply chains can hide forced labor and human rights violations.
Suppliers in high-risk regions might lack the program maturity they need to provide you with forced labor data and may require extra support and education.
