End Human Trafficking

Manpower ruler



Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery, which forces an estimated 12.3 million people into forced labor or sexual servitude at any given time. Trafficking human beings is now the third largest illegal industry on the planet, following only arms and drug smuggling, and it is present in every country and territory in our network. For this reason, Manpower Inc. has engaged in the End Human Trafficking Now! campaign, which is championed by the Suzanne Mubarak Women’s International Peace Movement (SMWIPM).

Manpower Inc. was the first company to sign the Athens Ethical Principles, which declare a "zero tolerance" policy for working with any entity, which benefits in any way, from human trafficking. This includes our clients, vendors and business partners. Our effort to engage more companies in support of the Principles has resulted in more than 12,000 organizations signing up directly, or through the commitment of their industry federations. We have also secured the support of a number of global union organizations. Visit End Human Trafficking Now for more information about trafficking and the global fight to end it.

We invite you and your company to join us and stand up against human trafficking by signing the Athens Ethical Principles by completing our form.
