Matthew Frank, Chief Legal Officer at PeopleConnect, an experienced legal and compliance executive in many industries, including e-commerce, technology, hospitality, and manufacturing, joins host Gwen Hassan to discuss human trafficking in the hospitality industry.
Matthew previously served as Senior Vice President and Global Chief Compliance Officer at Las Vegas Sands Corps and was involved in the trafficking focus. They did extensive training with the front desk staff, teaching them to spot red flags at check-in and with the housekeeping staff.
Staffing shortages can lead to human trafficking risks, Matthew claims. In a place like Singapore, where the majority of housekeeping staff are guest workers from other places in Southeast Asia, the big risk is the presence of labor brokers. They would recruit locals, mostly low-income young women, and essentially force them into indentured servitude.
