Which piece of UK legislation includes a provision for transparency in a company’s supply chain?
A.
Companies Act
B.
Modern Slavery Act
C.
Working Time Directive
D.
Health and Safety at Work Act
The Answer Is:
B
This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
The Modern Slavery Act 2015 introduced a requirement for companies with turnover above £36 million to publish annual slavery and human trafficking statements, disclosing actions to ensure transparency in supply chains. The L5M5 study guide (old p.62, new p.90) stresses its role in combating forced labour and human trafficking. While the Companies Act (A) focuses on governance, the Working Time Directive (C) regulates working hours, and the Health and Safety Act (D) ensures workplace safety, only the Modern Slavery Act addresses supply chain transparency.
