Join us for a practical webinar on the fast-evolving landscape of human rights and environmental due diligence — and what it means for your business. 

This session will break down current and upcoming legal requirements, with a focus on the key EU regulations shaping mandatory human rights and environmental due diligence (mHREDD), including: 

  • The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) 

  • The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) 

  • The EU Forced Labour Regulation (EUFLR) 

With growing regulatory expectations, all businesses need to understand how to design and implement effective human rights due diligence. As a membership organisation with 28 years’ experience, ETI will share practical insights on how companies can move from compliance to meaningful action. 

We will introduce ETI’s Mandatory Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence (mHREDD) Guidance, alongside our in-country reports, designed to help businesses navigate emerging EU requirements with confidence. 

You will also hear how ETI supports businesses to know how to adopt an HRDD approach, the practical tools we use, guidance we offer and safe space ETI provides to learn from peers. 

The session will focus on implementation — showing how internal teams and suppliers can work together, and how ETI membership supports businesses at every stage of the journey. 

This event is part of our ETI Insights series.
