Better Trade Collective helps companies respond confidently and effectively to forced labor allegations, and more importantly, design processes to prevent forced labor and enforcement actions in the first place.

As former senior officials at the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of International Labor Affairs, and key interagency partners with U.S. trade and import enforcement agencies, we understand the regulatory, evidentiary, and stakeholder demands companies face when navigating forced labor enforcement.

The Better Trade Collective team understands evolving U.S. enforcement priorities on forced labor, including supply chain investigations, import detentions, evidentiary documentation expectations, rebuttable presumption standards, and corrective action pathways—helping organizations navigate both compliance and remediation with confidence. We also support organizations in developing remediation strategies that meet government expectations, strengthen supplier accountability, and ensure long-term compliance with labor regulations.
