Understanding the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act

uflpa

The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) is a U.S. legislation aimed at preventing the importation of goods made with forced labor from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) in China. The Act establishes a rebuttable presumption that any goods mined, produced, or manufactured wholly or in part in XUAR are made with forced labor, and therefore, prohibited from importation into the United States.

Under this Act, companies must demonstrate that their supply chains are free from forced labor, particularly if they source from regions known for human rights abuses.

What Constitutes Forced Labor Under the UFLPA?

The Act defines forced labor as all work or service which is exacted from any person under the menace of any penalty and for which the person has not offered themselves voluntarily. This includes forced labor practices affecting the Uyghur population and other ethnic and religious minorities in China.
