McAllister provided support and remediation efforts after the tragic collapse of Rana Plaza on 24 April 2013, advocating for the inclusion of provisions for corporate accountability in the UK’s Modern Slavery Act, and leading several projects that have positively impacted hundreds of thousands of workers across four continents.
