Focus on Labour Exploitation (FLEX) is a British charity working to end human trafficking for labour exploitation. FLEX is based in London and conducts research, advocacy and awareness-raising in order to prevent labour abuses, protect the rights of trafficked persons and promote best practice responses to human trafficking for labour exploitation.[1][2][3]

History

[edit]

FLEX was founded in 2013 by Caroline Robinson and Claire Falconer. In 2015 FLEX developed the Labour Exploitation Accountability Hub, a free online resource which provides legal information on corporate and government accountability for human trafficking and labour exploitation worldwide.
