Make Sure You Are Complying with International Forced Labor Laws
Save time and effort in maintaining compliance while supporting your import supply chain
It can be challenging for businesses in international trade to keep up with new and emerging government regulations that ban the import of goods manufactured with forced labor, including recently released rulings such as the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act. Companies, who are aware that they are ultimately responsible for items they are shipping, turn to robust software solutions to help them mitigate risk, strengthen compliance and enable growth.
Descartes has a suite of compliance solutions that quickly identifies overseas suppliers who use forced and other prohibited forms of labor in their manufacturing process and stops those shipments from entering their supply chains.
These solutions work by screening suppliers against official government lists of organizations engaged in illicit labor practices. Screening can be completed online, in batches or through integration with your ERP or other business systems.

“Screening with Descartes gives us a high level of confidence regarding compliance and due diligence, both on a day-to-day basis and when entering new markets or signing up new partners. And by integrating the Descartes system into our other business processes, we not only reduced the burden on our organization to do these processes manually, but we've improved compliance.”
