Flooding: snapshot for responsible business

This snapshot provides key excerpts from ETI’s member briefing on flooding. It aims to:

  • Explain how floods increase risks and impact workers in global supply chains.
  • Stimulate collaboration and action between companies, suppliers, and worker representatives
    to address these risks and impacts as part of a broader HRDD approach.

It uses the ETI Base Code as a structure and highlights the importance of crosscutting principles and recurring actions. It forms part of ETI’s work on Just transitions.
