ΠΕΡΙΓΡΑΦΗ
In today’s global business environment, the importance of corporate sustainability due diligence (CSDD) cannot be overstated. Companies are increasingly held accountable by regulators, stakeholders and consumers, to ensure their operations take into consideration Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues.
This comprehensive course dives into CSDD based on the latest regulatory framework, the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), introduced by the European Commission. Participants will be introduced to the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), comprehensive and transparent sustainability reporting and how it complements the due diligence requirements set out in the CSDDD. Participants will gain a thorough understanding of CSDD, exploring the processes and practices needed to identify, prevent and mitigate adverse impacts on human rights and the environment, throughout their business operations and supply chains. The course will cover the essential components of the CSDDD, highlighting key requirements, governance implications and the potential consequences for non-compliance, including civil liabilities and sanctions.
Although initially the CSDDD directly impacts large companies with over 1,000 employees and a turnover exceeding 450 million euros, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) are also indirectly affected. SMEs need to be equipped to respond to sustainability-related queries from larger clients, partners, banks, and other stakeholders. This course will help SMEs understand the terminology, requirements and reasons behind these new enquiries, preparing them to meet the expectations of their business ecosystem.
A significant portion of the course is dedicated to Impact, Risk and Opportunity (IRO) assessment, a critical element of effective due diligence. Participants will learn how to conduct robust IRO assessments, which help in evaluating the impacts, risks and opportunities associated with their business activities. These assessments are vital for integrating sustainability into corporate strategies and driving long-term value.
The aim of the course is to equip participants with the necessary knowledge and skills to develop and enforce policies that promote ethical conduct, safeguard human rights and minimize environmental impacts, thus contributing to a more sustainable and responsible business environment.
