The OECD is developing a Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains in the Garment and Footwear Sector intended to support the development of a common understanding of supply chain due diligence in the garment and footwear supply chains; and clarify the expectations of enterprises in the design and implementation of effective risk-based due diligence.

Invitation to contribute

Government, business and civil society representatives, international organisations, and participants of the OECD Roundtable on Due Diligence in the Garment and Footwear Supply Chain taking place on 1-2 October 2015 are invited to contribute comments to the current draft of this Guidance.

Sections 1 and 2 are ready for comment.

Section 3 is in the process of development  in collaboration with  stakeholders.

|Stakeholders are encouraged to provide relevant resources and inputs for any of the chapters under Section 3.

All feedback should be sent to Jennifer Schappert, [email protected] by 23 October 2015.
