Existence and effectiveness of grievance and remedy mechanisms in footwear and leather factories in India

Production along global supply chains is increasingly being criticised for its impacts on the living and working conditions at the places of production. Regulation for controlling business and state conduct is gaining ground, whether in form of so-called soft law such as the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP) and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises as well as the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains in the Garment & Footwear Sector, or as binding regulation such as the Act on Corporate Due Diligence Obligations for the Prevention of Human Rights Violations in Supply Chains (Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetz – LkSG) in Germany. The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), adopted by the European Union in 2024, will lead to the introduction of similar laws in all EU member states in the next few years.
