Forced Labour Regulation.
A ban on products made with forced labour on the EU market
What FLR requires.
The Forced Labour Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2024/3015) prohibits placing products made with forced labour on the EU market. It applies from 14 December 2027 and affects all economic operators placing products on the EU market, including importers.
Forced Labour Regulation is next on the same infrastructure in Regweaver OS.
Why it's hard.
Deep value chains
Forced labour risk can sit several tiers away from the company placing the product on the market.
Importers are in scope
Companies importing products carry the same prohibition as producers.
Information from suppliers
The information needed sits with suppliers, often beyond your direct ones.
Overlap with CSDDD
Due diligence on human rights and forced labour often covers the same suppliers.
How Regweaver helps.
Forced Labour Regulation requirements as structured requests
Turn Forced Labour Regulation requirements into structured requests that run through the same relationships as your other frameworks.
Across the value chain
Send requests to suppliers and partners in every tier you work with, and see which answers are outstanding.
Evidence tied to the requirement
Every answer and document is linked to the requirement it supports, so the trail is there when someone asks.
Versioned records
Answers and evidence are versioned and timestamped, so you can show what was known and when.
Who's affected.
You may not be in scope — but your customers are.
Companies in scope
Regulation impacts organisations — but execution happens across teams.
