Global companies with complex supply chains are grappling with an increasingly complicated web of human rights-related regulations and expectations. Failure to comply can result in enforcement action, litigation, and/or reputational damage.

In Part One, we discussed the background of human rights in the supply chain, including UN and OECD guidelines, and selected legislative developments in the US, Canada, UK and EU.

Join us for Part Two with Rebecca Grapsas, Partner and Co-Leader of Sustainability & ESG Practice, Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, Hayley Lund, Partner, Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, and Timothy Welch, Partner, Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP for a discussion on the following topics as they relate to human rights in the supply chain:

  • Litigation and enforcement trends
  • Due diligence considerations in the context of third party management and transactions
  • What companies can be doing to prepare and comply
