Rankings
Every scored country, in order
The full ranking of structural forced-labor risk. A higher score means more of the conditions that enable forced labor are present together, not that more people are exploited, which the index does not attempt to count. Search for a country, or sort by any column. The eleven countries the data cannot yet rank fairly are listed at the end, unscored rather than zero-filled.
Every rank carries its 90% plausible band from 10,000 perturbed re-scorings (shown under the rank and as the bar at right); mid-table bands are tens of ranks wide, so read tiers (Higher / Middle / Lower — cut points frozen at the validation registration run, not re-tuned per build), not exact positions. A low confidence chip marks countries whose composite rests on 9 or fewer of the 11 domains. Component columns: R = vulnerability to recruitment, E = conditions for unchecked exploitation.
Read a low score for a known destination country with care. The index measures origin-side structural conditions; it does not yet capture destination-side sponsorship systems (such as kafala tied legal status), so several wealthy migrant-destination states (including the Gulf) score lower than their well-documented forced-labor risk. A low rank there means the index does not yet read that pathway, not that the risk is absent. See Limitations.
