Our position on the European Supply Chain / Due Diligence Act proposal - CSDDD
VAUDE endorses the envisaged mandatory due diligence for companies in the EU. We call for
ambitious, fast-acting and binding standards for greater sustainability at the EU level which
would apply to as many companies as possible.Legally binding sustainability standards are needed
Voluntary analyses of businesses’ social and environmental impact, as well as voluntary action
and acceptance of responsibility, have fallen far short of the level of commitment required to
make a significant contribution to the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals, the Paris
Agreement on Climate Change, and compliance with ILO Core Labor Standards.For this reason, VAUDE supports the EU Commission's proposal to create a legal duty of care for
companies
