Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act

The Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act came into force on January 1, 2024. The Act stipulates that any government institution producing, purchasing or distributing goods in Canada or elsewhere must, on or before May 31 of each year, submit a report to the Minister of Public Safety. The report must detail the steps the government institution has taken during its previous financial year to prevent and reduce the risk that forced labour or child labour is used at any step of the production of goods produced, purchased or distributed by the government institution.

For more information, refer to the Women and Gender Equality Canada's annual reports.
