The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the materiality of working conditions in the meat-producing sector, including the urgent need to improve labour standards and corporate practices among animal protein producers to help mitigate labour risk. This is particularly relevant in the face of broader industry trends that pose serious human capital challenges, such as the transition to a green economy.
The FAIRR Initiative and PIRC, therefore, invite you to a webinar where we will explore the link between environmental and labour issues in the industrial meat sector. We will also look at how labour risk can be more effectively addressed by companies and their investors via worker-centric solutions.
Speakers
Rachit Gupta, Senior Corporate Governance Analyst, Aviva
Cristina Figaredo Research & Engagement Manager, FAIRR Initiative
Alice Martin, Labour Specialist, PIRC
Additional guest TBC
Call to Action:
Investors are encouraged to address labour issues in food supply chains before they evolve into material risks.
