概要

This briefing paper provides recommendations for businesses on how to improve access to remedy for migrant workers vulnerable to modern slavery in their supply chains. Workers should be able to access remedy through the courts (judicial remedy) and non-judicial mechanisms. This briefing focuses on non-state non-judicial remedies. This avenue is often a migrant worker’s only line of recourse to labour abuses in contexts where state-based mechanisms do not effectively address their grievances. Non-judicial access to remedy should, however, never exclude the opportunity for migrant workers to be able to claim their rights through court processes. All governments are urged to improve access to judicial remedies for those affected by corporate human rights abuses and environmental harm.
