What level of due diligence is required to remain compliant and satisfy all stakeholders, both internally and externally?

13:30 - 14:30
Effective due diligence is required in order to stay compliant with current and emerging legislation, and to mitigate the risk of human rights abuses in company supply chains. 
 
Lawyers require adequate due diligence. But so do NGOs, governments, investors, boards and a host of other stakeholders. Does the definition of ‘adequate’ due diligence shift from one group to the next? And how do you perform effective due diligence to reduce exposure to human rights risk? 
 
This session will look at the practical steps a company must take to perform the due diligence required to satisfy all stakeholders and mitigate risk effectively.
