Launch: Impacts of Child Labour in Construction Materials: Guidance for Built Environment Professionals
23 September 2026

Child labour affects an estimated 138 million children worldwide, yet it remains a largely overlooked risk within construction supply chains. While our sector has made progress on carbon, biodiversity and modern slavery, child labour presents distinct challenges that are often missed through existing due diligence processes.

Join Built Environment Declares and HACE for the launch of Impacts of Child Labour in Construction Materials: Guidance for Built Environment Professionals.

Developed by Built Environment Declares signatories and child labour specialists at HACE, the report explores where child labour risks exist within construction material supply chains and outlines practical actions for identifying and mitigating them.

In this webinar, the report authors will:

  • Share key findings and recommendations
  • Explore high-risk materials and supply chains
  • Explain the distinction between child labour and modern slavery
  • Discuss emerging business, legal and reputational risks
  • Highlight practical steps for responsible sourcing and procurement
  • Answer questions in a live Q&A
