Kern van de disclosure
This disclosure requires the organization to identify operations and suppliers considered to have significant risk for incidents of forced or compulsory labor.
The disclosure should identify the relevant types of operations and suppliers and the countries or geographical areas in which they are located.
The assessment is risk-based. An operation or supplier can fall within the disclosure even where no confirmed forced-labor incident has been identified.
The organization should also describe measures taken during the reporting period that were intended to contribute to the elimination of all forms of forced or compulsory labor.
The disclosure does not require a percentage of operations or suppliers assessed, a complete inventory of all sites and suppliers or publication of every individual supplier name.
General supplier ESG screening, modern-slavery policies or human-rights training do not replace the required risk identification unless they provide information specific to forced or compulsory labor.
Dit educatieve materiaal van LRA ondersteunt het opstellen van de disclosure. Raadpleeg voor de exacte vereisten altijd de officiële Global Reporting Initiative-bron.

Illustratieve voorbeelden
Synthetisch, geschreven door LRA — niet afkomstig uit een bedrijfsrapport en geen tekst uit een standaard.
Illustrative synthetic example — Apparel manufacturing
Cut-and-sew operations using migrant workers in Countries A and B were considered to have significant risk for incidents of forced labor because of recruitment debt and restrictions on workers’ ability to leave employment.
Labor agencies, textile processors and subcontracted facilities in Countries A, B and C were also considered to have significant risk.
During the reporting period, the organization prohibited recruitment fees, required reimbursement of identified fees, strengthened labor-agency contracts and completed worker interviews and forced-labor-specific audits.

Illustrative synthetic example — Food processing and logistics
Seasonal packing operations in Country D and third-party logistics providers and labor agencies in Regions E and F were considered to have significant forced-labor risk.
The assessment identified recruitment debt, compulsory deposits and retention of worker documents as relevant indicators.
Measures taken during the reporting period included stronger recruitment controls, contract revisions, worker interviews and supplier corrective-action plans.
