NAVEX ESG Conflict Minerals
Lifecycle Management of US and EU Conflict Minerals
A global responsibility and social awareness effort is underway. In an effort to help defund human rights abuses and armed militias causing violence, authorities are encouraging and regulating the procurement actions in the Congolese region of Africa and other Conflict Affected and High Risk Areas (CAHRAs). Conflict Minerals laws in the EU, US and growing number of US states are compelling businesses to monitor, report and possibly change business processes to share the values of citizens and consumers.
Addressing the management of conflict minerals in an automated and defendable process that aligns with the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) due diligence processes helps create a culture of trust and respect from your employees, customers, vendors, investors, and regulators. Executives and managers know that reporting required internally and by third parties and government entities will be sourced from a single, integrated repository lowering the overall cost of compliance while increasing the confidence in reporting.
