TISCreport UK Modern Slavery Act Companies in Compliance List 2020

Published on: 12 October 2020

TISCreport Companies in Compliance List 2020
Last year 1013 companies made it into the list of those with statements that had met the minimum compliance criteria set in the Home Office Statutory Guidance. This year sees a slight increase with 1135 companies on the list, which we hope will be accelerated by the implementation of recommendations for the next iteration of the UK Modern Slavery Act. As before, we hope that this list will help to encourage companies still struggling to meet those criteria to update their statements using real, live examples from their sector. Happy Anti-Slavery Week!
