Do you think you would recognize human trafficking if you encountered it? Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery, and it is happening all over the world – even in the United States. Traffickers come from all walks of life, and their victims are men, women, and children. It is estimated that up to 20 million people are being held in slavery worldwide today. The US federal government has a zero-tolerance policy on human trafficking that applies to its employees and to employees and agents of contractors and subcontractors. In this course, you will learn how to avoid the activities prohibited under the Combating Trafficking in Persons regulations. You'll also learn about indicators of trafficking in persons and what to do if you suspect that prohibited activities are occurring in the conduct of any work your company is doing for the US government.This course was developed with subject matter support provided by The Potomac Law Group, PLLC.
