GOTS Applauds EU Parliament’s Move For Corporate Sustainability
The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is celebrating the recent approval of the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) by the European Union parliament. This landmark legislation mandates stringent due diligence practices throughout supply chains of companies operating within or connected to the EU. The aim is to prevent human rights violations and environmental harm.
Rahul Bhajekar, GOTS Managing Director, hails the development, stating, “The strengthened due diligence requirements across the EU will serve as a catalyst, inspiring more companies to join GOTS in creating an environmentally healthy, equitable and safe textile industry.”
