The Bribery Act came into force in 2011 but it is only in the last year or so that cases have come to court.

The Modern Slavery Act - It doesn't affect my organisation, or does it? (June 2016)

This webinar will explain the Modern Slavery Act and how to ensure compliance, provide a checklist of what to do now and give examples of best practice, as well as examples of what constitutes modern slavery. It may surprise you. This will be of use to directors, accountants and auditors, in all types and sizes of organisations.
