Over 110 bishops call on governments to introduce mandatory due diligence for companies
July 8, 2020
Over 100 Catholic leaders from around the world have released an unprecedented statement calling on the introduction of mandatory human rights due diligence. The statement released by Catholic Bishops is just another high level call for more oversight by governments to ensure companies operating around the world do so in a manner that is respectful of human rights.
At Trubshaw Cumberlege we emphasize to our clients that by implementing a more robust and actionable risk management framework addressing human rights, community engagement, sustainability, and security, our clients will be in a competitive position once due diligence and international frameworks become mandatory around the world.
