Forced Labour Training is a crucial program designed to educate individuals on the definition, indicators, and prevention of forced labor, also known as modern slavery, particularly within global supply chains. This training is increasingly vital in Saudi Arabia as the Kingdom actively works to align with international labor standards, having recently launched its National Policy for the Elimination of Forced Labor in early 2025 and ratified the ILO’s 2014 Protocol to the Forced Labour Convention.
Training empowers employees, especially those involved in procurement and human resources, to conduct due diligence, assess risks within their supply chains, and understand their role in reporting and addressing potential cases of forced labor, thereby promoting ethical sourcing and protecting vulnerable workers.
