Canada: Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act

This report outlines the steps taken by IKEA Supply AG and IKEA Food Supply (Canada), Inc. to prevent and reduce the risks of forced labour and child labour within their supply chains, as mandated by Canada's Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act. It details amendments to previous reports and outlines actions taken in FY 2024, including risk assessments, remediation measures, and training initiatives.

The document covers IKEA's structure, operations, and supply chain, focusing on due diligence processes and adherence to the IWAY standard, which encompasses principles on children's rights and fundamental labour rights. It addresses identified cases of forced labour, particularly those related to debt bondage, and the remediation efforts undertaken.

Furthermore, the report highlights progress in training and competence development for suppliers and partners, emphasizing ethical recruitment and the improvement of working conditions for migrant workers. IKEA remains committed to strengthening its internal procedures to ensure remediation rights and support for all actors within the IKEA value chain.
