The ILO Global Business Network on Forced Labour


The International Labour Organization’s (ILO) Global Business Network on Forced Labour (GBNFL) brings together businesses of all sizes and sectors, and their networks, from around the globe to eradicate forced labour.

Operating across all sectors, and geographies, ILO GBNFL members and partners work to engage smaller enterprises, develop resources and tools, and devise local solutions that help shape national frameworks to create lasting change.

The ILO is uniquely placed, through its tripartite structure, global network, and leading expertise on the subject matter, to bring a coalition of actors together under one umbrella.

ILO GBNFL members are businesses of all sizes and sectors, employer and business membership organizations, industry trade groups and sectoral associations. Other business-led initiatives with complementary mandates and expertise are encouraged to join as partners.
