The issues in the document are labeled "innovative" as they have never before been taken into consideration by the UN's primary body in crime prevention and criminal justice, according to the report, the resolution aims to coordinate efforts of governments, businesses, civil society, and international organizations to fight human trafficking in the economic field. 

Risks of trafficking persons in business operations, public procurement, and supply chains are pronounced in the report as well as the number of action-oriented recommendations for public and private sectors.  

The adoption of the resolution will further draw the attention of the international community to the problem of modern slavery and will provide an important impetus to the joint efforts of all concerned partners to combat this problem, the report said.
