Indicator 3.2.8

Prison labour often involves the use of incarcerated individuals under conditions that can amount to forced labour.
Such employees may not have the freedom to choose their employment, which may be assigned as a condition of their incarceration or reintegration.
This indicator applies to any person held involuntarily, which includes:
- unauthorised immigrants
- refugees
- people awaiting trial or sentence
- prisoners
- people in drug rehabilitation programmes
- people held for retraining
- people held for political reorientation.
- This indicator also applies to reintegration programmes where work may be voluntary and persons held/prisoners may receive a salary.
  - Although the intention of such programmes is to facilitate an inmate’s transition back into society, ASC does not allow such programmes under the ASC Farm Standard as it is not in a position to monitor the fairness of such practices and ensure that there is no exploitation of people on a global scale.
- The UoC is responsible for ensuring that any recruitment agencies used are not engaged in prison labour for employees working at the UoC.
