All forms of forced or compulsory labor – including human trafficking – should be prohibited. Vague promises on these issues are not acceptable; countries must enter into compliance before a trade agreement takes effect.
2007年5月协定的主要原则非常直白，难以反驳。工人应该被允许组织工会。童工应该禁止。一切形式的被迫或义务劳动——包括贩卖人口——应该禁止。绝不接受这些问题上模棱两可的承诺；各国必须在贸易协定生效前同意遵守这些原则。
