NAVEX, a global leader in risk and compliance management software, has released a new supply chain due diligence training course aimed at helping organizations navigate complex international regulatory requirements and ethical sourcing challenges.
The multilingual course covers critical supply chain management concepts, including legal compliance, human rights protections, and risk assessment strategies. It addresses key regulations from multiple jurisdictions, such as the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act, UK Modern Slavery Act, France's Duty of Vigilance Law, and the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive.
The training module focuses on four primary objectives: exploring responsible sourcing guidelines, educating participants about illegal and unethical exploitation, explaining labour rights protections, and reviewing workplace health and safety principles. Available in eight languages, the course enables organizations to standardize their approach to supply chain compliance across diverse geographic regions.
According to Jen Farthing, General Manager of Training Content at NAVEX, the course empowers employees and supply chain partners to recognize their critical role in maintaining ethical standards. By understanding complex supply chain dynamics, participants can more effectively identify and resolve potential compliance issues.
This training represents a significant step in helping organizations proactively manage supply chain risks, emphasizing the importance of human dignity, legal compliance, and responsible business practices in an increasingly interconnected global economy.
