Expanding worker voice and labor rights in global supply chains: Standard setting, verification, and traceability
Migrant workers are the backbone of many global supply chains, performing some of the hardest tasks with few protections, low pay, and at high risk for abuse, including being lured into debt bondage (International Business Leaders Forum [IBLF], 2010). Migrant workers number about 169 million, with about 58 million in ‘irregular migration’ (i.e. not authorized to work; International Labour Organization [ILO], 2021: 2–3). A seminal study revealing many female migrants in forced labor in the Malaysia electronic industry caused a global rethink of auditing (Verité, 2014). Reports by the ILO and other revealed extensive forced labor and trafficking abuses in the global fishing industry, spurring efforts to correct (FishWise, 2017; ILO, 2015). Broadly speaking, the ILO addresses migrant worker rights through its Decent Work Agenda, Conventions and Recommendations, and in alignment with the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda and the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). New opportunities exist, however, for measurably improving labor rights protections in global supply chains through improved standard setting and enhanced verification of conformance to the standards as well as product traceability. While the ILO has had some limited engagement in this realm, it may find greater success with sustained
期刊介绍:
Global Social Policy is a fully peer-reviewed journal that advances the understanding of the impact of globalisation processes upon social policy and social development on the one hand, and the impact of social policy upon globalisation processes on the other hand. The journal analyses the contributions of a range of national and international actors, both governmental and non-governmental, to global social policy and social development discourse and practice. Global Social Policy publishes scholarly policy-oriented articles and reports that focus on aspects of social policy and social and human development as broadly defined in the context of globalisation be it in contemporary or historical contexts.
