A new study underscores the critical role of collaboration in eradicating forced labor, with 50 million people in slavery and $150 billion in illicit profits annually. Supply chain transparency is essential—not optional. Since 2022, U.S. Customs has seized over $2 billion in goods linked to forced labor under laws like the UFLPA. However, beyond compliance, companies need thorough human rights assessments and audits to mitigate risks and safeguard integrity. https://lnkd.in/gr68tidc Partner with Rezylient and FloraTrace to enhance transparency and protect your supply chain. https://lnkd.in/gvwJJYU5 https://lnkd.in/gY8JTTzh #ForcedLabor #SupplyChainTransparency #HumanRights #UFLPA #GlobalCompliance #SupplyChainIntegrity #Rezylient #FloraTrace

The US Senate has passed the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, aiming to ban all imports from China’s Xinjiang region. The bill assumes products from the region are tied to forced labor, shifting the burden to companies to prove otherwise. https://lnkd.in/ga7gvuv5 Co-sponsors Senator Marco Rubio and Senator Jeff Merkley called for swift action from the House, warning that American businesses must not profit from human rights abuses. This legislation builds on existing bans on Xinjiang-made cotton, tomatoes, and solar products. With over a million Uyghurs reportedly detained since 2016, the Senate’s move intensifies pressure on businesses to rethink supply chains and avoid any connection to forced labor.

Managing supply chains has never been more challenging these days. Geopolitical tensions, evolving regulations like the UFLPA, and demands for sustainability create mounting pressure for businesses to maintain full visibility—right down to raw materials. Without the right strategy, companies risk fines, shipment delays, and reputational damage. But with smart technology, data, and automation, you can stay ahead of the curve. https://lnkd.in/giKSkEWq Here are 3 strategies to navigate today’s regulatory landscape and building a resilient, compliant supply chain. • Full visibility is non-negotiable: New regulations like UFLPA and CSDDD require companies to monitor suppliers beyond Tier 1 to prevent compliance risks and disruptions. • Automation saves time and cuts costs: AI-powered tools streamline supply chain mapping, identify risks early, and eliminate the need for manual tracking. • Balance AI with human oversight: AI accelerates decisions, but trusted data and human input ensure compliance and accuracy in legal and operational workflows. 📲 Connect with Rezylient or FloraTrace today to build a resilient, transparent supply chain! https://lnkd.in/gvwJJYU5 https://lnkd.in/gY8JTTzh #SupplyChain #RiskManagement #Compliance #UFLPA #Automation #AI #Sustainability #Rezylient #FloraTrace
