Getting ready for the new Swiss Child Labour Legislation - which way forward?

You can access the recording of the webinar here.

The new due diligence obligations of the RBI counter-proposal need to be applied for the first time in 2023, and many companies are now getting ready for implementation. This webinar offers practical orientation for companies in the scope of the Swiss child labour due diligence legislation and gives an overview of the relevant considerations and options for implementation. It addresses the following questions:

• Synergies: what international regulatory developments (in Germany and the EU) are relevant for companies in the scope of the Swiss child labour legislation?
• Options: what options does my company have to implement the new Swiss child labour legislation? What do I need to consider for choosing the best approach for my company?
• Implementation: what does the Swiss child labour due diligence obligation according to the Swiss ordinance entail, and how is it different from implementation of due diligence according to international standards?

A useful pre-reading about the topic can be found in focusright’s blog implementing child labour due diligence: two options for companies in Switzerland.
