A future without modern slavery: EU-legislation and upcoming requirements for the textiles sector

With the European Commission's proposal for a Regulation to prohibit products made with forced labour on the EU market, the EU plans to ban all products made under such conditions for domestic consumption, export and import. The regulation will have wide-ranging impact as it covers all companies and products, regardless of size or sector in which they operate. In this session we will hence look at the potential impact of this Forced Labour Ban on the textile sector and how companies can begin to prepare for the upcoming obligations in their supply chains.
