Directive of the European Parliament and the Council on Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence
摘要
This chapter is aimed at achieving three main objectives. Firstly, it will assess the scope of application of the Directive to determine the sufficiency of coverage for MNEs and workers. Secondly, the chapter will evaluate the effectiveness of the Directive in monitoring and enforcing human and labour rights standards by MNEs. Thirdly, it will examine the positive and negative aspects of the Directive. Ultimately, this chapter will conclude on whether the Directive, in its current form is an effective tool to drive compliance with human and labour rights standards by MNEs and will draw lessons for international organisations and NGOs to learn from this instrument.
