Germany's new supply chain due diligence law came into effect on 1 January, requiring companies with +3,000 employees to comply w/ certain human rights obligations for their entire supply chains.

Congratulations to all involved! We urgently need a new UK law to hold companies AND the public sector to account when they fail to prevent human rights abuses and environmental harms in their global value chains #BizHumanRights #mHREDD #PublicProcurement https://twitter.com/WilsonsLondon/status/1598581390680932352

Yesterday the Council of the #EuropeanUnion adopted its general approach on the #csddd proposal.

Together with two excellent colleagues (who are not on Mastodon 😫) we wrote about it for EU Observer.

Today we release the new BankTrack Global Human Rights Benchmark 2022, assessing 50 large commercial banks on their implementation of the #UNGPs.

We find no commercial banks fully meeting the Guiding Principles - a minimum requirement for business. And more than 3/4 of banks score less than half marks.

All banks covered need to raise their game to respect human rights, and the slow pace of voluntary action shows the need for strong #mHREDD legislation.
