As Germany has and the EU is about to adopt human rights due diligence legislation, Swiss businesses will be required to prepare for and respond to increased requirements from their clients and other stakeholders.<\/li>\n<li>Transparency is increasingly moving from an expectation to a legal requirement. This applies both to increasing transparency over complex supply chains as well as transparently communicating a company\u2019s human rights due diligence efforts.<\/li>\n<li>While companies need to know and show their human rights risks and impacts and define appropriate responses, significant potential for impact comes from collaborative initiatives, such as through sector, regional and raw material associations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nWebinar: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.co.uk\/e\/botswana-germany-supply-chain-due-diligence-webinar-registration-309427725657\">Botswana-Germany Supply Chain Due Diligence<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nDate: 26 April 2022, 10:00 \u2013\u202f11:30 CEST<\/p>\n<p>The event hosted by the Embassy of the Republic of Botswana in BerlinAfrika-Verein der deutschen Wirtschaft and Marlow Strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Here are three takeaways from the event:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Act will also impact suppliers further down supply chains, who do not sell directly to Germany.<\/li>\n<li>Suppliers can expect increased contract and code requirements from German customers and failure to comply could result in the loss of business.<\/li>\n<li>Investments required to fulfil the new requirements will be relevant for other markets, as regulation is increasing in Switzerland, the Netherlands and the European Union.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nWebinar: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8lcDFMERgIQ\">The Future of Trade and Business with German Companies Under the DDSC (recording)<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nDate: 27 January 2022, 10:00-11:30 CET<\/p>\n<p>This webinar was hosted by Marlow Strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Here are our top 3 reflections from the webinar:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The law applies to all German companies and foreign companies with a branch in Germany. International suppliers also need to prepare for new contractual requirements from their clients.<\/li>\n<li>International suppliers could risk losing business if they unable to show they are taking adequate risk management measures. They need to \u2018know and show\u2019 how they are addressing human rights in their own operations and supply chains.<\/li>\n<li>Any changes a company makes to meet the new requirements in Germany, will be a good investment as more regulation is expected. Switzerland have already tightened their requirements with new \u2018responsible business\u2019 legislation and changes are also being discussed in the Netherlands and at EU level.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>twentyfifty regularly contributes to webinars on mandatory human rights due diligence regulation.
