The Modern Slavery Baseline Assessment (MSBA), developed by The Mekong Club, is a crucial tool for organisations looking to improve their understanding of internal practices, meet compliance requirements, and establish themselves as leaders in anti-slavery and social sustainability efforts within their industries.
Developed by a team of international experts, the MSBA evaluates your internal capacity to assess and respond to modern slavery risks in alignment with internationally recognised frameworks: the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, (CSRD), the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs).
The MSBA is also accessible to non-members, at a competitive rate. It offers a practical starting point for transforming commitment into meaningful, measurable change.

Choose the support that fits your needs
Every organisation is at a different stage in strengthening its approach to modern slavery and human rights due diligence. The MSBA offers two levels of support: the MSBA Scorecard provides a clear baseline, benchmarking and high-level recommendations, while the MSBA Strategic Roadmap delivers deeper analysis, prioritised recommendations and a practical plan for improvement.
