H.R. 4307 — Enhancing Detection of Human Trafficking Act

This section directs the Secretary of Labor to implement a training and continuing education program within 180 days of enactment for Department of Labor employees whose duties warrant it, with priority for Wage and Hour Division staff in states experiencing significant increases in oppressive child labor. The program may use in-class or virtual formats and must cover detection of human trafficking, identification of victims and traffickers, referral procedures to the Department of Justice and other authorities, and post-training evaluations.

This section requires the Secretary of Labor to submit annual reports, beginning one year after first implementing the program under section 3(a), to the House Committee on Education and Workforce and the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions. The reports must cover the effectiveness of and participation in training and continuing education provided under the program, as well as the number of human trafficking cases referred to the Department of Justice and other authorities and the processes used to track responses to those cases.
