Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what gender awareness training staff at the Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority (GLAA) have undertaken in relation to their inspections of workplaces; and whether the GLAA has a gender awareness strategy in place for those inspections.

The GLAA informs me that it ensures its inspection staff have been trained to adopt a victim centred approach to determine whether exploitation has occurred, and to treat each identified victim according to their needs.
