Beyond Tier 1: Mastering Due Diligence in Indirect Labor

September 11, 2026

The International Labour Organization estimates that forced labor generates $236 billion in illegal profits annually. Labor and human rights risks dominate parts of the supply chain that have historically been the hardest to monitor, presenting a direct link between low visibility and worker vulnerability. 
That is, unless you have the right tools.
The companies best positioned are those whose HRDD infrastructure can do two jobs at once: establish a continuous worker feedback loop to identify and remediate risks in service sectors early, AND provide the robust documentation required to satisfy global supply chain transparency mandates.
Join Antoine Heuty, Sr. VP of Human Rights at EcoVadis and Aparna Moitra, Sr Manager Customer Success and Methodology at EcoVadis, share why moving beyond the Tier 1 horizon and implementing regional tier-n monitoring is your best defense against hidden labor liabilities.
What You Will Learn: 
A practical breakdown of the indirect labor blind spot and why facility maintenance, logistics, and service sectors represent high-risk profiles.
How to implement tier-n human rights monitoring and use regional canvassing to uncover hidden labor problems before they escalate.
Real-world learnings from the field, featuring exclusive results from the Global Affairs Canada (GAC) funded Labor Rights Project in Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana.
Proactive steps to leverage digital Worker Voice tools to build a continuous feedback and remediation mechanism across deeper supply tiers.
