We are extremely concerned about the update to the credibility section of the modern slavery statutory guidance published yesterday by the Home Office. ❓ But what is it?

Without forced labour import controls, the UK will continue to be a ‘dumping ground’ for goods made with forced labour. Anti-Slavery International has long campaigned for an import ban on goods made with forced labour in the UK.

Modern slavery is a ‘low risk, high reward’ crime in the UK. This has to change. We’re proud to be part of the consortium launching the #DecadeOfDignity report, a strategic roadmap to eradicate exploitation by 2036. No more looking the other way.

In June 2025, Anti-Slavery International, alongside partners at Corporate Justice Coalition & MPs Richard Burgon, & Ellie Chowns handed a petition with 145,000+ signatures into 10 Downing Street & the Department for Business and Trade (DBT).

This #EarthDay, we're highlighting a critical but often overlooked connection between climate change and modern slavery. Climate change threatens ecosystems, which in turn increases people's vulnerability to forced labour, forced marriage, and human trafficking.

The UK has committed to closing loopholes for low-value imports by 2029 – but in the meantime, the door is left open to risky imports.

Women’s History Month is a time to remember and honour women’s achievements throughout history. We'd also like to spotlight the challenges of many women migrant workers, who are often overlooked and who remain trapped in exploitative working conditions in systems like Kafala.

For many Uyghurs, daily life is still shaped by coercion, surveillance, and separation from loved ones. Refusing work is not an option. These abuses don’t stop just because we’ve looked away or we don’t see them.

Many of the everyday products we use and consume, like our phones, clothes, and even our easter eggs, could be linked to forced labour. This is unacceptable.

What should Anti-Slavery International’s role be in a world where global trade, conflict, migration, digital connectivity & climate change, along with huge disparities of wealth between & within countries, are all part of perpetuating old & creating new forms of exploitation in modern slavery?

Uyghurs, and other Turkic and Muslim-majority peoples have been systematically subjected to forced labour by the Chinese Government, but their struggles don’t often make headlines.

We call for immediate action by home & destination country governments, employers & international institutions to safeguard the rights of migrant workers in all countries affected by the conflict. 1/2 bit.ly/4lmX52T @antislavery.org @equidem.bsky.social @ituc.bsky.social @idwfed.bsky.social

Anti-Slavery International are deeply concerned about the UK Government’s earned settlement proposal & the recent announcement from the Home Secretary that would reduce refugees’ status from 5 years to 30 months, & the impact this may have on modern slavery survivors.

Restrictions on freedoms, wage theft and isolation are all realities often faced by migrant workers in countries where sponsorship systems exist, such as in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries.
