  • Workers are a primary source for identifying risks of labor abuses in on-the-ground operations.
  • Companies should inform workers and other stakeholders who contribute to risk and impact assessments how the information they provide is used.
  • Workers across a company’s supply chain should help lead in both identifying labor abuses and developing solutions.  Companies should use this information when considering business risks, including in environmental and geopolitical risk mapping.
  • Risks change as the environment evolves and a company’s operations change. Companies should continually seek feedback from workers and integrate this information into their risk management processes.
  • Where remedy is required, workers should play a crucial role in verifying that it is sufficient and fully resolves all forced labor conditions.
