About the data
State-imposed forced labour is when governments force their citizens to work to for economic development, to punish political dissents, or to discriminate against minorities. When state-imposed forced labour occurs, it becomes impossible for brands to conduct third-party audits or due diligence to verify the absence of forced labour, prevent or mitigate forced labour, or remediate forced labour.
