CS3D and CSRD Value Chain Compliance Solution

The EU’s sustainability drive is changing the rules of the game for businesses across the continent, and the impact will be felt around the globe. The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CS3D) and Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) demand unprecedented detail in due diligence and disclosure on value-chain sustainability performance and impact.

The EU’s Ambition Raises The ESG Stakes

A focus on your value chain

It’s not just about your operations — CS3D and CSRD require coverage of broad human rights and environmental criteria across your value chain.

A lower threshold than you might expect

EU directives are set to affect smaller companies — a minimum of 500 employees puts you – and many of your suppliers – in the scope of the first phase-ins.

Corporate climate transition plans

CS3D calls for an alignment with the Paris Agreement, while CSRD demands the disclosure of transition plans to meet the 1.5 °C goal.

Penalized inaction or wrongdoing

Sanctions and civil liability for violations of the CS3D obligations are included.
