Act vs Action - Legislation not enough to combat modern slavery

2015-12-03 10:44:00| Daily apparel & textile news and comment - from just-style.com

Leslie Johnston, executive director of the C&A Foundation and a board director at GoodWeave believes the UK's Modern Slavery Act - which obligates large companies to report and declare their steps to address slavery - can only do so much. She is instead calling on businesses to take a broader approach to abolish slavery within supply chains and engage consumers to create change.
