Modern slavery is a crime and a gross violation of fundamental human rights. It takes various forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour and human trafficking all of which have in common the deprivation of a person’s liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain. We are committed to improving our practices to combat slavery and human trafficking.
