The Mekong Club is pleased to invite you to attend an interactive webinar with Adam Whitfield, Global Head of ESG at Achilles, to talk about new and emerging human rights legislation impacting Asian businesses.
The world’s sustainability landscape is undergoing a transformative shift. Alongside a focus on net zero and environmental matters, businesses are now increasingly required to also address human rights concerns, including the prevention of modern slavery and child labour.
Due-diligence-focused legislation is rapidly being introduced and already impacting many businesses globally from Australia (Modern Slavery Act) to India (BRSR Core) and Canada (Bill S211). For companies looking to unlock strong global business performance, their approach to human rights has to be a central concern – now and in the future.
This webinar will bring together business leaders and experts to discuss:
- How Human Rights regulation is evolving and what it means for businesses.
- Insights gained from the companies pioneering Human Rights Due Diligence.
- What we learned in 2023 from new legislation and those companies already having to comply.
- Predictions for the future: what does the future of HRDD look like including the Asia Pacific countries most likely to introduce HRDD legislation in 2024.
- The business challenges associated with compliance and practical guidance on how to overcome them.
