Raising the bar for businesses

​

The strategic plan places a strong emphasis on:

• A collaborative framework that puts lived-experience perspectives at the heart of policymaking; encouraging government, businesses, and civil society to work together.

• Greater support for survivors, meaningful engagement with vulnerable communities, and deeper cross-sector collaboration.

• A push to amend the Modern Slavery Act 2018 to require mandatory due diligence.

​

It’s about more than just a vision of people with lived experience shaping policy. It’s about raising the bar for businesses. The Commissioner is calling upon businesses to elevate their efforts beyond simply reporting, and to embed due diligence processes into their core operations. This ensures that ethical practices become a standard part of business operations, not just a checkbox. While the precise scope and timing of regulatory change remain uncertain, the Commissioner signals that business action must evolve.

 

As strategy becomes reality, iPRO is ready.

​

iPRO is helping businesses build long-term organisational capability to manage modern slavery risks and respond to legislative change. iPRO’s emphasis on providing practical tools for compliance and measurable impact enables organisations to easily integrate meaningful modern slavery due diligence and prevention into their operations without unnecessary complexity.

​

The Modern Slavery Assessment and Reporting Tool provides a standardised, data-driven way for organisations to seamlessly integrate these processes. From supply chain risk assessments to action plans, policies, education, reporting, and statements; it’s the most complete and affordable modern slavery due diligence platform on the market.
