These datasets match information on child labor and forced labor worldwide from ILAB’s three flagship reports (Findings on the Worst Forms of Child Labor; List of Goods Produced by Child Labor or Forced Labor; and List of Products Produced by Forced or Indentured Child Labor) with U.S. import trade data, including Harmonized Tariff Schedule Codes, to empower users to advance efforts in supply chain transparency as well as strategic sourcing priorities. There are 3 tables combining data from ILAB’s essential reporting with U.S. import trade data. For more information, see ILAB’s International Child Labor and Forced Labor Reports page and ILAB’s Better Trade Tool page.
