UK Modern Slavery Act

Stay informed about company-wide regulation compliance

In 2015, the Parliament of the United Kingdom passed the UK Modern Slavery Act. The law includes provisions to prohibit the trafficking of individuals for the purpose of modern slavery. The law requires that businesses disclose statements confirming steps to ensure that slavery and human trafficking are not taking place inside the business.
