The Supply Chain Due Diligence Act aims to protect human rights and environmental standards in global supply chains. It obliges companies to identify potential risks and take measures to prevent violations.
The BAFA report documents the measures and progress made by the TÜV NORD GROUP in complying with the statutory due diligence obligations. It provides a transparent overview of how risks in the supply chain are identified, assessed and minimized in order to ensure the protection of human rights.
Knowledge and implementation of the contents of these documents are of central importance for all employees and for the interested public. Both documents reflect the TÜV NORD GROUP's commitment to taking responsibility and making a positive contribution to society.
The TÜV NORD GROUP is convinced that the observance and protection of human rights should be the basis of all sustainable business activities, which is why we have also appointed a Human Rights Officer. As an internationally active group, we assume responsibility towards our employees and society and support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and fulfill our due diligence obligations. This responsibility encompasses both our own business activities and our business relationships along our supply chain.
