Confused by New Zealand’s proposed Modern Slavery Reporting Bill? Learn how legislation could affect your business at our expert-led breakfast event on 19 June 2024.

Our event is an unmissable opportunity to get ahead of any potential regulatory changes. It will help you understand the impact of modern slavery and how to de-risk your business, project success, and reputation.

With the infrastructure industry facing greater slavery risks thanks to complex international supply chains and a workforce that can be vulnerable to exploitation, you will hear from key leaders in the field, including:

• Rebekah Armstrong​​​​, Head of Advocacy and Justice, World Vision
• Alexandra Monson, Group Manager - Sustainability, Ventia

Why attend?

Although New Zealand has yet to enact its modern slavery bill, the commitment is clear: New Zealand businesses will undoubtedly in future have to take action to address and reduce slavery risks, in line with other countries around the world.

Our breakfast event is your chance to engage with experts, showcasing to stakeholders, customers, and communities that you are proactively driving positive change in your business and industry before any legislation is passed.

Key takeaways

You will learn:

• How modern slavery poses a risk to your operations, supply chains, and project success
• Common ‘at-risk’ areas in infrastructure procurement
• The implications of likely new laws – transparency, reporting, and compliance
• The practical anti-slavery solutions and strategies that you can implement now
• Due diligence in contracts and tenders
• Best practice examples

Places are limited. Register now to secure your spot.
