Review of child labour in Coca-Cola's Guatemalan sugar supply chain
"Review on Child and Forced Labor and Land Rights in Guatemala's Sugar Industry", Mar 2015
The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) established industry-leading commitments to protect the land rights of farmers and communities in the world’s top sugarcane-producing regions, advancing its ongoing efforts to drive transparency and accountability across its global supply chain. In support of this goal, TCCC partnered with UL’s Responsible Sourcing group (UL) to conduct a research study examining the incidence and impact of child labor, forced labor and land rights issues in Guatemala. This study combines field assessments with robust qualitative research and stakeholder engagement to help improve TCCC’s commitments in the area of human rights and sustainable agriculture.
