Bill S-211, An Act to enact the Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act and to amend the Customs Tariff, referred to as Canada’s “Modern Slavery Act” (the Act) is set to come into force on January 1, 2024. The Act creates reporting obligations for a wide range of businesses including many that you would not expect. At the same time, existing US forced labour legislation is already creating havoc with supply chains.

Join us to learn more about what Bill S-211 means for your business, including Canadian reporting obligations and disclosure requirements, as well as US obligations, inspection and enforcement provisions, and legal and reputational risks. The session also covers steps your business can take to prepare under the Canadian and US rules.
