What is CSRD?<\/h2>\r\n
\r\n

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is an EU law that came into effect in January 2023. It establishes a common framework for companies to report on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues. CSRD asks companies to explain how they impact people and the planet \u2014 not just in their own business, but also in their supply chains.<\/p>\n

February 2025 Update: The EU has proposed updates to CSRD<\/a> through the Omnibus Package<\/a> to make reporting easier and less costly, while still supporting the EU\u2019s goals for a more sustainable economy.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n Learn how CSRD impacts your business<\/a>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n
