Join a webinar on the risks of forced labour in the electronics industry supply chains
Shared Services Canada (SSC) and Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) are working to protect human rights in electronics supply chains. For this webinar, they have teamed up with Electronics Watch, a non-governmental organization that helps public buyers work to promote and protect the rights of workers, to share their expertise.
