Modern Slavery

Modern slavery covers slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking. It is often intertwined with organised crime and victims are treated as commodities and exploited for criminal gain.
The Modern Slavery Act, (the “Act”), was published in 2015 and builds upon existing legislation, consolidating a number of different offences into a single act. These offences are set out and defined below:

Slavery Servitude

Forced Labour
Human Trafficking
Where a person exercises ownership over another.
Where a person is coerced into providing services and is unable to effect a change in his/her circumstances.
Where a person is forced to work or provide a service, fearing reprisal if he/she does not comply.
Where a person arranges or facilitates the travel of another person with the knowledge or intention to exploit that person.

Section 54 of the Act also brings into effect a requirement for large organisations with UK
operations to provide a statement detailing the steps that they have taken to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking are not taking place within their business or supply chains.
