Guide: How to comply with the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG)

German Supply Chain Act poses implementation challenge

In June 2021, the German Bundestag passed the Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (Supply Chain Act), which, as of January 2023, intends to create a more level playing field among German companies through due diligence in favour of human rights and environmental protection. As is often the case, the German Supply Chain Act tells you what you need to do, but it doesn’t explain how to do it.

Speeki provides businesses with expert guidance on how to build and effectively implement programmes using our own Engage™ methodology combined with the well-known ISO management system standards.
