Nuevo boletín de la OIE sobre empresas y derechos humanos

Esta última edición abarca temas que van desde el décimo aniversario de los Principios Rectores de las Naciones Unidas sobre las Empresas y los Derechos Humanos (UNGP10) hasta la evolución más reciente de la legislación europea sobre empresas y derechos humanos (en inglés)

The Newsletter includes on details on the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs) 10+1 project, which aims to chart a course for the “next decade of action on business and human rights”. It also highlights the contributions of the International Organisation of Employers to the International Year for the Elimination of Child Labour.

In this edition, special attention is given to the new pieces of European Union legislation: one on sustainable corporate governance and due diligence, and the second on the amendment to the non-financial reporting directive, renamed Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Since these will have important repercussions on European and third country companies and their supply chains, it is key for business to convey the right messages to the European Commission during the public consultations.
