The Official Journal of the European Union publishes the corporate sustainability due diligence directive
After it has come into force, companies will have to start the steps needed to ensure fulfillment of the directive’s obligations within the time periods imposed by the European Union. To assist with this task, we share below a chart with the key dates when the obligations for companies will come into force in the member states.
After a tortuous legislative process lasting more than two years, the corporate sustainability due diligence directive was finally published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJ) on July 5, 2024. Garrigues has been reporting on the process: in April and May 2024, we covered final approval of this important European directive by the European Parliament (see here) and the Council (see here).
