About the data

Due diligence is the process through which companies identify, prevent, mitigate and remedy their actual and potential adverse human rights and environmental impacts.

In this question you are being asked to identify whether the company publicly discloses the outcomes of steps taken to remedy risks.

Due diligence is the process through which companies identify, prevent, mitigate and remedy their actual and potential adverse impacts. Due diligence can be included within broader enterprise risk management systems, provided that it goes beyond simply identifying and managing material risks to the enterprise itself to include issues occurring within their supply chain and focuses on identifying the most salient risks to workers, farmers and other affected stakeholders themselves.

Start by taking a look at a brand's Modern Slavery Statement or California Transparency Act disclosure, due diligence processes and results are often there but can also be described in annual reports.

Where to look for this information:
- In Modern Slavery Statement or California Transparency Act disclosure
- Corporate Social Responsibility report
- Company documents
- Company websites
- Company code of conduct
- Parent company documents (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company policies (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company websites (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company code of conduct (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)

- Analysis
- UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights

- Priorities
- Identifying salient Human Rights or Environmental issues

Things to watch out for:
- Will allow points in this sub-section for data covering human rights or environmental topics but best practice is covering both.
- Will accept outcomes or results of steps taken even if the results cover just one topic or one intervention made.
