The article argues that #Migration should be understood not as a linear journey to a destination but as a broader labour regime in which both mobility and enforced immobility generate value, vulnerability and #Inequality. https://t.co/W4dapYdKJu

🔶New issue of Futures of Work. This issue explores how borders shape workers’ lives, treating them not as neutral lines but as contested and ideological forces. The articles show how bordering practices structure labour mobility and inequality. https://t.co/0MdJUb2uT4

#ModernSlavery exploits people for profit. Survivors should be seen as individuals with skills and dignity, guiding business and policy. Laws must protect, not punish, and the future of work should embed fairness, accountability, and survivor engagement. https://t.co/GSwL4QBRgX

The Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner supports victims, prosecutions, prevention, and research, but weakened protections highlight the need for corporate accountability, Commissioner independence, and stronger labour enforcement. #ModernSlavery https://t.co/eeZbr8tVzA

The articles highlight widespread criticism of the Modern Slavery Act but also propose ways to strengthen legislation, ensure business accountability, and uphold dignity for exploited people. https://t.co/RUkvA3SwR2

The article argues that “modern slavery” rhetoric has replaced real labour reform with spectacle and control, calling for a return to fair wages, strong unions, and true worker justice. #Unions #Inequality #ModernSlavery https://t.co/dCcR978Y60

Survivors of modern slavery face neglect, weak protections, and disbelief, especially in #NorthernIreland. This piece calls for reform of the Modern Slavery Act, stronger survivor support and a shift from blaming victims to demanding accountability. https://t.co/2Pqf0ElzIq

Ten years on from the #ModernSlaveryAct 2015, the UK has raised awareness and pushed disclosure among companies but still lacks clear definitions, strong enforcement and meaningful change in the lives of many vulnerable workers. https://t.co/RUkvA3SwR2

🔶New issue of Futures of Work! Issue 33 examines how, ten years later, the UK’s #ModernSlaveryAct remains landmark legislation, raising awareness but failing to curb exploitation, revealing rising tensions. https://t.co/uqn1Z9Ne6F
