Modern slavery poses a real and ongoing risk across both international and national supply chains. While Australia’s legislative modern slavery framework has been in operation for over four years, many entities are failing to comply with mandatory reporting obligations, identify risks in their supply chains and comply with commitments made in their annual reports. In the midst of a Federal Government review of the Modern Slavery Act, now is the time for business to ensure they are complying with their reporting obligations and taking active steps to prevent modern slavery risks. Join Jasmine O’Brien, Sladen Legal Employment Law Principal, to discuss:

• modern slavery in Australia;

• obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2018;

• whether your business is required to make a modern slavery statement;

• addressing modern slavery risks in supply chains and operations; and

• possible changes to the Australian modern slavery framework.
