Following the recent US import ban on shipments of Giant products from Taiwan due to indications of forced labour, the Taiwan Bicycle Association (TBA) has this week introduced an industry-wide Human Rights Due Diligence initiative. In a statement, the association said, "To meet growing global expectations for Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) and sustainable supply chain governance, the Taiwan Bicycle Association (TBA) has announced an industry initiative encouraging suppliers across the value chain to undertake supply chain due diligence, with a particular focus on human rights and forced labor."
