Upcoming webinar enables businesses to navigate complexities confidently
This article was produced in partnership with Avetta
On January 1, Canada’s Modern Slavery Act (Bill S-211) came into force — is your organization ready?
In an upcoming webinar, Understanding modern slavery legislation in the workforce, Avetta’s director of sustainability Katie Martin will tackle the critical aspects of the newly implemented bill and dive into its implications for business operations going forward.
“We designed this must-attend presentation to guide safety and procurement leaders through the latest rules and regulations, and provide compliance and risk management strategies,” says Martin, a multidisciplinary leader with over a decade of experience designing, implementing, and assessing ESG and Sustainability programs for both Fortune 500s and startups at scale across a variety of sectors.
“Complying with the latest legal requirements and ethical standards is essential when running your business. And whether its workplace safety or supply chain management, keeping your business up to code is crucial.”
Bringing that wealth of knowledge to the webinar, Martin will cover what the new rules and regulations are, how to understand compliance with Bill S-211, share real-world insights into risk management and how to detect risks in your supply chain, and highlight innovative technologies and other practices for success.
Summing it up as “a crash course in complying made easy,” this all-encompassing presentation sets out how businesses can safeguard their organization against modern slavery risks by leveraging best industry practices and adopting innovative solutions — but Martin stresses this webinar is about more than compliance. It’s about building out strong, comprehensive, and up-to-date employment practices that will take your organization into the future.
“We want to help you not only meet legal requirements but enhance your commitment to ethical practices within your organization and supply chains,” she says. “In an ever-changing business landscape, you need to know how to navigate complexities confidently.”
