TRAINING HUMAN RIGHTS FOR PURCHASING
BASIC TRAINING FOR BUYERS
Through this online training, buyers develop a better awareness of the points in the code of conduct and what expectations are placed on suppliers.
You will receive the necessary basic knowledge to communicate expectations of suppliers, to better classify situations and to check points on site with suppliers.
Implement points from the LKSG sensibly
The German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG) requires companies to carry out training under Article 6. We believe that not all employees need to be trained. However, purchasing is a very important department where training can have a big impact.
After completing the training modules, participants receive a confirmation of participation, which they can attach to the annual reporting for the German Supply Chain Act.
