This is how you make the value chain in your company more sustainable – and avoid stumbling in EU regulations, webinar

The EU has an increasing focus on sustainability and wants to promote responsible business behaviour in global value chains. Upcoming EU regulations on sustainable value chains (Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence) can have significance – and in the worst case, consequences – for both large and small companies.

How do you ensure that production in your company at least complies with human rights and environmental legislation? And what is ‘responsible corporate behaviour’?

Join the first of 10 webinars in the EXCELIVING training programme. In this webinar, you will get an introduction to due diligence for the six steps sustainability method. ‘Six steps’ is a practical and systematic method for value chain management and ensures productive cooperation on shared responsibility across the value chain.

Time: 12. April 2023, 13:00 – 14:00 (CET)
Place: Online

This webinar will be held in English. You can participate in one or more webinars. All webinars can be viewed independently.
