Prioritising the Eradication of Modern Slavery
Event Information
About this Event
If we cannot see it , we cannot fix it!
When it comes to Modern Slavery, Procurement professionals tend to look at offshore supply chains to implement legislation that requires some entities to report on the risks of modern slavery in their operations and supply chains, and actions taken to address those risks.
In this webinar we will challenge the project and procurement professionals to look a little closer to home and understand what modern slavery can look like in our own backyard and what influence we have, to make real change over and above simply complying with the Act itself.
Join The ProForum Community’s guest panellists who will discuss Modern Slavery legislation along with examples of modern slavery conditions in Australia and NZ, you may be surprised at just what is going on.
