The vote on potentially stopping the German Supply Chain Act until the CSDDDD is transposed was rejected (end of last week) meaning that the LkSG will stay active until the CSDDD takes over in Germany.    Many celebrate it as this is giving better hope for a quicker and more ambitious transposition of the CSDDD in Germany which might have positive effect also in other EU countries.

On Tuesday, the Swedish Business and Human Rights Network gathered for the third meeting of 2024. The day focused on raising grievances and concerns for value chain workers and leveraging influence in human rights due diligence. The morning session with Karin Iseman focused on the complexities and challenges of setting up grievance processes. We explored essential questions such as who should handle local grievances in large multinational organisations, the training required for those involved in processing complaints, and how to effectively communicate these channels to ensure trust among workers. A special thank you to our speaker, Axel Kollberg, Sustainability Manager at Systembolaget AB, for sharing invaluable insights during the afternoon session. Axel highlighted the importance of leverage in human rights due diligence, illustrating how companies can influence suppliers and partners to mitigate human rights risks. His practical examples and lessons learned provided a unique perspective on the successes and challenges faced by Systembolaget as a state-owned monopoly. Thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to engaging and important conversations! If you are interested in joining the network, please reach out to Sandra Atler or Clara Selderman.
