The world of forced labor regulations is changing fast, and the consequences for non-compliance remain serious. Recent and upcoming rules are popping up everywhere, from Canada and Mexico to the EU and beyond, in addition to parallel U.S. regulations like the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA).
