AMSTERDAM – The Dutch Agreement on Sustainable Garments and Textile (AGT) has published a guide to help companies prepare for forthcoming mandatory due diligence legislation proposed by the European Union.
AGT, which expired at the end of last year, said the document would help companies identify, prevent and mitigate potential environmental and human rights risks in their supply chain.
The ‘Practical guide for companies on IRBC and OECD due diligence’ formed the basis of AGT’s annual assessment of the fashion brands and retailers among its members.
