Working Group Collaboration
Members work together in 5 thematic groups to address current and emerging issues. Each group is co-chaired by 2 members and supported by a board sponsor and the FNET Technical Team.
Developing Common Due Diligence Tools Working Group
A priority for this working group is to gain understanding and traction in complex parts of the supply chain where transparency can be challenging. Members developed and continue to update the risk assessment tool, and explore “beyond audit” mitigation approaches, producing resources where needed.
Climate Change & Human Rights Working Group
The focus of this group is on increasing understanding and building capacity to tackle the joint impacts of human rights and climate change that include migration, water and extreme heat.
Raw Materials & Services Working Group
Members identify and explore priority raw materials and services and share deep-dives insights on some of their challenges and sourcing risks and try to create alignment to build ethical trade throughout the supply chain.
Empowering Work Working Group
Members examine how to remove barriers between employees and improve all employees communication and engagement in the workplace.
Responsible Recruitment Working Group
Members share intelligence on emerging risks in recruitment in different geographies and explore how to understand different recruitment processes all over the world. Colleagues share approaches to remediation of recruitment fees and communicate examples of responsible recruitment.
