Modern slavery risk assessment

Gold, Stefan; Gutierrez-Huerter O, Gabriela; Trautrims, Alexander

Abstract

Agrifood supply chains have high risks of labor exploitation. with aAround two million people working under conditions of modern slavery and forced labor – as the most extreme end of the labor exploitation continuum – in this sector worldwide (ILO and Walk Free Foundation, 2017). So far, the concept of sustainable food system has focused on issues of food security, nutrition for society and consumer health in a way that planetary boundaries are not crossed but it has largely neglected parts of the social dimension of sustainability, in particular agricultural workers’ rights and working conditions.
