Human Rights Due Diligence & Supply Chain Transparency
Supply chain transparency and human rights due diligence are becoming baseline expectations for any business operating in international trade. Regulatory frameworks — both active and incoming — are requiring businesses to map their supply chains, assess human rights risks, and demonstrate corrective action. We help you build the evidence and systems to meet those expectations.
What we support:
• Supply chain mapping across tier 1, 2, and 3 supplier levels
• Human rights risk assessment using internationally recognized due diligence frameworks
• Ethical recruitment gap assessment and Employer Pays Principle implementation
• Migrant worker protection framework design
• Supplier questionnaire design, documentation systems, and evidence frameworks
• Corrective Action Plan (CAP) development and monitoring
Who this is for:
Manufacturers and exporters supplying EU or US buyers, or businesses seeking to demonstrate responsible supply chain practices to any international partner.
Key frameworks: US UFLPA · EU Forced Labor Regulation · EU CSDDD · OECD Due Diligence Guidance · UN Guiding Principles on Business & Human Rights · ILO Forced Labor Protocol · UN UNGPs (HRDD Framework)
ESG Reporting & Disclosure Readiness
As ESG disclosure frameworks mature globally, businesses supplying international buyers are increasingly expected to provide structured sustainability data covering their environmental performance, social practices, and governance structures. We help you understand what is being asked, build the right data systems, and respond with credibility — now and as requirements evolve.
What we support:
• ESG disclosure gap assessment tailored to your buyers' and investors' specific requirements
• ESG data collection framework and indicator mapping
• GRI Standards alignment and materiality assessment support
• CSRD-aligned questionnaire response preparation
• ESG performance baseline and annual improvement roadmap
Who this is for:
Any business supplying international buyers, retailers, or investors where ESG disclosure is expected or required — across any sector or market.
Key frameworks: EU CSRD · GRI Standards · ISSB / IFRS S1 & S2 · CDP · UN SDGs
What we support:
• Gap assessment of your buyer's specific social standards requirements
• Social compliance management system design — policies, procedures, and accountability structures
• Worker engagement, interview preparation, and rights awareness sessions
• Documentation, policy development, and record management systems
• Corrective action planning and continuous improvement frameworks
• Post-assessment review and ongoing improvement planning
Who this is for:
Factories, producers, and suppliers supplying international buyers who require evidence of social standards performance across any manufacturing or production sector.
Key frameworks: SMETA / Sedex · BSCI · SA8000 · Higg FSLM · ILO Core Conventions · ISO 26000
Workplace Safety & Environmental Performance
Workplace health, safety, and environmental performance are core pillars of responsible business — and among the most frequently cited gaps in international assessments of manufacturing facilities. We provide formally accredited OHS advisory and training, combined with environmental performance review, to help you address these gaps and demonstrate continuous improvement.
What we support:
• OHS gap assessment aligned to international standards and buyer requirements
• Fire safety review, emergency preparedness assessment, and remediation planning
• Workplace fire safety training for workers and for senior management — delivered by an IOSH-accredited facilitator
• Environmental performance baseline — energy, water, waste, and emissions
• OHS and environmental management system design and documentation
Who this is for:
Manufacturing and production facilities seeking to improve workplace safety performance, address environmental practices, or close gaps identified in social standards assessments.
Key frameworks: ISO 45001 · ISO 14001 · IOSH · ILO OSH 2001 Guidelines · SMETA HSEC criteria
Emerging ESG Regulation Advisory
The ESG regulatory landscape is evolving rapidly. Businesses that engage early with incoming requirements will be better positioned to retain buyer relationships, protect market access, and avoid reactive, costly compliance exercises. We monitor the full horizon of ESG regulation and help you prepare ahead of enforcement.
What we support:
• EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) — for coffee, rubber, wood, and palm exporters
• EU Forced Labor Regulation — supply chain documentation and evidence preparation
• EU CSDDD (Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive) — value chain due diligence readiness
• Mandatory Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) frameworks — emerging national and regional laws
• Modern Slavery Act obligations — for businesses with Australian, UK, or Canadian buyer connections
• Nature and biodiversity risk disclosure — aligned to TNFD and emerging international standards
• Regulatory horizon scanning — ongoing monitoring of incoming requirements relevant to your sector
Who this is for:
Manufacturers, producers, exporters, buying agents, and trading companies in Vietnam and Southeast Asia where ESG performance is becoming a commercial and regulatory priority.
Key frameworks: EUDR · EU Forced Labor Regulation · EU CSDDD · HRDD frameworks · UK Modern Slavery Act · Australia Modern Slavery Act · TNFD
Social Standards & Responsible Business Practices
Major international buyers require their suppliers to demonstrate social standards performance — covering labor practices, worker rights, health and safety, working hours, and management systems. We help you build the internal systems and practices that meet those expectations consistently, not just when an assessment is due.
