Verité Reports: Research on Indicators of Forced Labor in the Production of Goods

September 20, 2012

Verité released several reports based on research carried out from 2008 to 2011 on the presence of indicators of forced labor in the production of shrimp in Bangladesh; brazil-nuts, cattle, corn, and peanuts in Bolivia; sugar in the Dominican Republic; coffee in Guatemala; fish in Indonesia; tuna in the Phillippines; as well as on working conditions in the production of rubber in Liberia.

The purpose of the research was to increase understanding about the nature of forced labor in the supply chains of a broad spectrum of goods in various countries around the world. The research aimed not to determine the existence or scale of forced labor in these countries and sectors, but rather to identify the presence of indicators of forced labor and factors that increase workers’ vulnerability to labor exploitation.

Verité's 9 reports are provided below:

  1. Lessons Learned During Research on Indicators of Forced Labor in the Production of Goods
