Global brands are at risk of using forced labor through their Chinese supply chains. They use critical minerals or buy minerals-based products sourced from China's Xinjiang region. The report comes as China and the United States continue talks aimed at easing trade dispute. Joe Biden signed a law to block imports from the Xinjiang region unless businesses can prove the items were made without forced labor. The law initially targeted solar products, tomatoes, cotton and apparel, but the U.S. Government recently added new sectors for enforcement, including aluminum and seafood.
