This guide for employers, jointly developed by the Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF) and the International Labour Organization (ILO) through the project From Protocol to Practice: A Bridge to Global Action on Forced Labour, aims at providing practical guidance to employers on how to identify risks of forced labour in company recruitment, employment and sourcing practices, and how to effectively prevent and eliminate these risks.
