New California law requires disclosure regarding human trafficking and slavery in supply chains
The California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010 took effect on January 1, 2012. The law requires many companies doing business in California to disclose what efforts, if any, they have taken to eliminate human trafficking and slavery from their supply chains.
Who does the law apply to?
The law applies to every "retail seller and manufacturer" having annual worldwide gross receipts in excess of $100 million and "doing business in the state" of California under the terms of California's revenue and tax code. Whether a company is a manufacturer or retail seller depends on whether the company has a manufacturing or retail trade as its principal business activity code on its California tax return.
