Asia-Pacific leads growing push for mandatory human rights due diligence

Asia-Pacific is emerging as the leading region in the drive to make human rights due diligence mandatory for companies. Anti-slavery group Walk Free reports growing momentum for laws that would require businesses to identify and address human rights risks, such as forced labour, in their operations and supply chains. This mirrors similar legislative moves worldwide, including due diligence rules in Europe.

Why now: Governments and advocacy groups are actively debating new laws that would make human rights due diligence legally binding for companies.
