I demand an E.U. due diligence law that:
- Makes companies respect human rights, the environment and the climate.
- Puts strict, no-nonsense obligations on companies to prevent and end harm.
- Holds parent companies responsible in court for harm that happens anywhere in their supply chain. No loopholes!
- Guarantees collective bargaining by trade unions and gives workers’ representatives a real say in due diligence, every step of the way.
- Tackles the climate crisis by making companies slash emissions throughout their value chains.
- Protects the planet by holding companies accountable for all possible harms to the environment.
- Applies due diligence requirements to all business relationships along their value chains.
- Empowers people harmed by bad business practices, trade unions, and civil society to get justice in EU courts.
- Consults everyone who is, or may be affected by business activities, and obtains consent when needed.
- Gives enforcement agencies the power to thoroughly investigate and sanction companies.
