About this course
Modern slavery, also known as contemporary slavery or neo-slavery, refers to institutional slavery that continues to exist in present day society. There will be new compliance and reporting obligations for large corporations and other entities operating in Australia. This will help companies evaluate their supply chains and ensure that no slavery has been used in producing the products they sell.
This should apply not only to goods produced in their own factories but also to their suppliers, and suppliers of their suppliers, all the way down the supply chain. Corporations and other entities who fail legislation, depending on their location and income, can face large fines and even imprisonment.
