Modern slavery cases in UK retail double in a year, new Unseen report reveals

혐의

A new report by the UK charity Unseen has highlighted a significant increase in cases of exploitation impacting migrant workers within the UK retail sector between 2024 and 2025.

The number of cases reported to Unseen's Modern Slavery & Exploitation Helpline rose from 33 to 65, while potential victims identified more than doubled from 100 to 201.

The report calls for urgent reform of the skilled worker visa and stronger protections for workers, including preventative checks on employers before they receive a sponsor license and throughout the period they employ the workers.
