Overview

The U.S. Department of Labor presents Comply Chain: Business Tools for Labor Compliance in Global Supply Chains to help mitigate risk of child and forced labor in supply chains for companies and industries.

The app targets companies and industry groups seeking to develop robust social compliance systems for their global production. Comply Chain provides a practical, step-by-step guide on critical elements of social compliance, and is designed for companies that do not have a social compliance system in place or those needing to strengthen their existing systems.
