Beyond Compliance: Effective Reporting Under the Modern Slavery Act – A Civil Society Guide for Commercial Organizations on the Transparency in Supply Chains Clause
Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act, ‘Transparency in Supply Chains’ (TISC) requires every organisation carrying on a business in the UK with a total annual turnover of £36m or more to produce a slavery and human trafficking statement for each financial year of the organization. Organizations are required to publish this statement on their website and must include a link to the statement in a prominent place on the website’s homepage. The guidance is intended to share initial thinking around how the provisions on transparency in supply chains in the Modern Slavery Act 2015 can be used to drive positive change and help prevent slavery and forced labour from occurring.
