This week Kat speaks with Sian Lea, Managing Director of Shiva Foundation about the work they do to address modern slavery in the hotel industry’s supply chains. Specifically, we speak about their Stop Slavery Blueprint, which is an accessible toolkit that hoteliers can use to guide them through this process. We discuss ways to manage supply chains and the impact of the Modern Slavery Act Transparency in Supply Chains requirement.
