Due diligence strategy as a mechanism to prevent violations of workers' rights in global supply chains

The author addresses the issue of labor rights violations in global supply chains of multinational enterprises. This publication is devoted to the draft Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on Corporate Due Diligence and Liability and proposed amendments to private international law. The legislative initiative is the first such comprehensive regulation within the EU and imposes obligations on companies to protect social human rights, in relation to their business activities throughout the supply chain.
