Business & Human Rights Resource Centre - Modern Slavery Registry
The Modern Slavery Registry holds statements made under the UK Modern Slavery Act, the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act, and the Australian Modern Slavery Act. The statements are assessed on three points: board (or equivalent body) approval, director (or equivalent individual) signature, and whether there is a link to the statement on the company’s website homepage. The search feature allows users to search statements by industry, legislation, region, and keyword.
