Corporate sustainability reporting & due diligence: unpacking the box
13 Feb 2023 | 8:00am – 9:00am CET
As the only reporting standards which incorporate the OECD Due Diligence Guidelines for MNEs, the GRI Standards require companies to report their due diligence policies, processes and actions conducted to identify, prevent, mitigate, and account for potential adverse impacts, including the outcomes of these actions. This session will demonstrate how sustainability reporting using the GRI Standards supports the ‘track’ and ‘communicate’ steps in corporate due diligence under the obligations and guidance set out by the OECD.
