As precarious employment increases, vulnerable workers, including women and migrant workers, are hit the hardest. Workers in the sector are likely to become even more vulnerable as migration flows continue to grow rapidly.3 The apparel and footwear sector is increasingly reliant on migrant workers. As such, it is crucial that companies have the right policies and processes in place to address the dynamic nature of forced labor risks in their supply chains, including the risks to migrant workers. 1 Clean Clothes Campaign (2015), “General Factsheet Garment Industry February 2015.” Accessed 22 October 2018.
