In this session we want to discuss how the concept of due diligence can be translated into a law (on child labour), and which set of requirements that is workable and clear for business, should be included? Short presentations on existing due diligence legislation and a discussion on specific elements of OECD and ILO guidances on child labour will lead to recommendations which of these elements should be codified into law.
