Social media companies should cooperate to lift industry standards, innovate solutions, and ensure that modern slavery risks are not merely displaced to another platform. Such cooperation should also involve meaningful consultation with survivors and anti-slavery experts. Partnerships should have sufficient geographic spread to ensure risk is addressed in different contexts.
This metric assesses whether the company discloses in its modern slavery statement that it collaborates with industry and non-industry stakeholders to learn from experts and peers and/or lift the industry standard for preventing, identifying, and mitigating modern slavery, labour exploitation and human trafficking risks, and enabling effective remedy for harms caused or contributed to.
Select as many answer options as apply.
Note: industry initiatives and collaborations must include efforts to combat modern slavery on social media, not collaborations that seek to combat modern slavery in supply chains but do not explicitly mention combatting modern slavery on social media platforms.
* Note on choosing the Year of your answer
Read the MSA Statement carefully to find out what year it covers.
When a statement is referring to a Financial Year (FY) ending in Q1 or early Q2, it should be labeled with the previous year. Example:
- Statement for FY2018/19 ending in April 2019 = 2018
- Statement for FY2018/19 ending in May 2019 (or later) = 2019
