Difference between modern slavery and child labour

What Tony’s Open Chain calls illegal labour*

CLMRS: social traceability

Since 2017 Tony’s Open Chain is implementing the Child Labour Monitoring and Remediation System January (CLMRS) developed by the International Cocoa Initiative (ICI) and

Nestlé. CLMRS works to identify and remediate cases of child labour, as well as to prevent future cases by raising awareness. With support from the International Cocoa Initiative (ICI) and Tony’s, the partner cooperatives implement the CLMRS at all member households.

Each of Tony’s Open Chain partner cooperatives implements the CLMRS, involving the entire community. Each cooperative has a team of community facilitators who conduct awareness raising with farmers and the broader community, visit homes and farms to talk about child labour with parents, and identify cases of children engaged in child labour. The community facilitators are trained on how to have open and trustful conversations with families about child labour, and how to find solutions for individual cases and prevent re-occurrence of child labour.
