Department of Labor May 15, 2020 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of International Labor Affairs (``ILAB'') amends a provision of its procedural guidelines (``Guidelines'') for the development and maintenance of a list of goods from countries that ILAB has reason to believe are produced by child labor or forced labor in violation of international standards (``List''). The Guidelines establish the process for the public submission of information and the evaluation and reporting process to be used by the U.S. Department of Labor's (``DOL or Department'') Office of Child Labor, Forced Labor, and Human Trafficking (``Office'') in ILAB in maintaining and updating the List. DOL is required to develop and make available to the public the List pursuant to the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2005.
