📌 Today marks the International Day for the Abolition of Slavery. Around the world, it’s estimated that 50+ million people live in modern slavery.

Many are migrant workers, who are vulnerable to exploitation due to the ongoing practice of charging workers for employment offers.

A sobering reminder on #WorldChildrensDay: @ilo estimates 160 million children aged five to 17 are in child labor around the world.

That’s roughly 1 in 10 children worldwide. 🧵

Child labour tends to occur deep in raw materials supply chains, which means it can go unnoticed. What can brands do? https://t.co/pwpfB7Yesp

[Fair Labor Association @FairLaborAssoc]

While governments are responsible for creating and enforcing laws that protect children, companies of all sizes and in all countries are responsible for ensuring that they know the risks of child labor in their own operations and in all tiers of their supply chains.
