How has Germany’s national due diligence legislation been working so far?
In this episode of Frankly Speaking, Richard Howitt was joined by Finn Schufft, Corporate Responsibility Officer at Germanwatch and Emirali Karadoğan, Researcher and Trade Union Expert for the Turkish trade union Tez-Koop-İş, that was featured in Germanwatch’s report on the main impacts so far of the German supply chain act.
Together they discussed the key findings of the Germanwatch report, including the crucial challenge of enforceability of due diligence legislation. You’ll also hear about:
How the German law directly helped to support the right to freedom of association in Turkey
Why due diligence is so important in protecting and enforcing good labour standards, and why ILO conventions, OECD national guidelines and local labour laws are not enough
The impact of the CSDDD replacing the LkSG in Germany, especially in terms of companies covered
How debates on responsible business are advancing in Turkey
Finn’s overarching message to Europe based on the study’s findings
