Risks By Sector

 
Human and labour rights risks are present across all modes of transport used in supply chains. Here, the risks that companies must identify and address are detailed in relation to the specific transport sectors they can occur in: maritime shipping, road transport, warehousing and logistics, and fisheries.

Maritime Shipping
Isolation at sea, complex ownership structures, and weak enforcement create heightened risks for seafarers.
Road Transport
Fragmented contracting and time pressure expose drivers to fatigue, violence, and unsafe working conditions.
Warehousing and Logistics
Algorithmic management, productivity pressure, and insecure work create growing risks in logistics operations.
Fisheries
Fishing is the most dangerous work in the world. The ILO recognises it as a high-risk sector for forced labour and human trafficking.
