Security Industry Authority brought together senior pioneers from the 30 largest private security businesses to discuss labour exploitation. This summit followed a similar event in December 2024, at which the 20 largest businesses were represented.
These events form part of Operation EMPOWER, which is the SIA’s response to labour exploitation. EMPOWER involves a dedicated multi-disciplinary team that includes intelligence specialists and criminal investigators working closely with HMRC. The event was intended to build on work started in December with a wider range of voices from the industry.
