On 24th April, the European Parliament voted and adopted the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), meaning it is now a legal responsibility for companies in the European Union (EU) to comply with the sustainability legislation and regulations indicated in the directive. Not complying with, or violating, legal requirements will lead to a significant financial or social impact for the company to bear.
While CSDDD is taking into effect in the EU, the directive also influences companies currently doing business in China. The impact of CSDDD spreads across the entire supply chain, potentially impacting all business partners and more importantly, the value chain. The due diligence expectations of CSDDD mean companies need to have awareness of the directive and prepare for the practical actions necessary for the company’s supply chain to comply.
The influence of CSDDD goes beyond geographical boundaries and extends across company functions and departments including the supply chain, procurement, finance and marketing, and legal teams.
So, what actions should your company take to comply with CSDDD? What are the implications for your business operations, compliance and company excellence? Join us at the event on 13th June to hear insights and best practices from experienced lawyers from Europe, sustainability experts, academia and industry.
