Converged HREDD Assessment Tool and Guidance

Converged HREDD Assessment Tool and Guidance

Members of AIM-Progress and the Consumer Goods Forum Human Rights Coalition (major FMCG companies) have developed this tool in collaboration with the Fair Labor Association and Proforest to reduce the proliferation of new assessments and the exacerbation of supplier assessment fatigue.

Applied at parent company level, this tool will help businesses assess the maturity of a company’s HREDD systems across its own operations and supply chains, including both service and goods providers. It can be used by companies in any goods/service sector. It is a practical, ready to use resource inspired by company best practices to support business-tobusiness engagement and continuous improvement of businesses’ HREDD maturity.

The tool aims to create convergence of HREDD approaches and requests from buyers. Another goal is the facilitation of information exchange on pre-competitive sustainability issues that are central in emerging regulations such as the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive. We hope the tool can support companies on their journey to develop and continuously improve their approach, as they endeavour to effectively implement HREDD.
