My paper investigating how brands are working together to tackle modern slavery in the fashion industry is now available online: Horizontal collaboration in response to modern slavery legislation: An action research project in IJOPM emeraldinsight.com/doi/full/… #modernslavery
Yesterday I had the honour of speaking at the House of Lords for the launch of the @BSI_UK standard BS 25700: Organizational responses to #modernslavery. It’s been a privilege being on the committee, working on the standard alongside a diverse group of experts. Link in comments
The world’s first national #modernslavery standard providing organisations guidance for managing the risk of modern slavery.
As this is such an important topic, BSI have also made it free to download lnkd.in/ePHgJFfq
