Workshop

Tackling Modern Slavery through Purchasing Practices

New workshop dates coming soon.

Please contact us here for more information.

Overview

Do your purchasing practices mitigate the risks of modern slavery or do they contribute to creating the environment in which modern slavery can thrive? How does your organisation balance the need for ethical purchasing with the drive for positive commercial outcomes? Are you taking a comprehensive approach that addresses tensions in your purchasing practices and processes? Do your purchasing teams understand how their behaviour can drive suppliers towards unethical practices?

The increasing numbers of modern slavery victims reported in the UK and overseas suggests that this is an issue that is not going to resolve itself.

This workshop focuses first on strategic considerations followed by useful practical guidance and advice on operational implementation.

“I thoroughly enjoyed today’s session and have come away with a lot of information that has made me think about what I can do differently within my team and the wider business. Thank you very much for a very good days learning!”

“The workshop helped to raise the awareness of our team around Modern Slavery and will definitely be a good reference to build on areas where we have gaps in our understanding as a team.”
