About This Work
The company sought to understand the implications of emerging human rights and supply chain due diligence legislation across Europe and North America, including requirements related to conflict minerals, forced labour and responsible sourcing. The company required an assessment of its existing policies, procedures and due diligence systems to identify gaps and support alignment with evolving legal and customer requirements.

What We Did
Social Strata conducted a legislative mapping and compliance assessment covering human rights and supply chain due diligence requirements applicable to the company's global operations and supply chains. This included analysis of conflict minerals, battery sector regulation, forced labour legislation and emerging due diligence frameworks, as well as a detailed review of the company's existing policies, procedures and management systems. Through stakeholder interviews, document review and gap analysis, Social Strata assessed current alignment with legal requirements and international good practice, with a particular focus on sourcing from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (CAHRAs). The work culminated in a prioritised roadmap and recommendations to strengthen supply chain due diligence, risk assessment, monitoring, reporting and remediation processes.
The Result
The project provided the company with a clear understanding of its current compliance position and future due diligence obligations across multiple jurisdictions. The assessment established a practical roadmap for strengthening human rights and responsible sourcing processes, supporting the company's preparedness for emerging supply chain legislation and customer expectations.
