Enforcement of Mandatory Due Diligence Key Design Considerations for Administrative Supervision As the move towards mandatory human rights and environmental due diligence (‘HREDD’) gathers pace in Europe, it is timely to look ahead to how accountability for new corporate duties may be enforced. In response to this, Shift and the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) collaborated on a project to explore effective accountability for new mandatory HREDD regimes, grounded in the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), through two complementary approaches: civil liability for certain human rights harms and administrative supervision. The paper is primarily intended for individuals with responsibility for the business and human rights (or responsible business conduct) file at the EU and national levels. They may sit in departments of justice, employment/labour, economics/ finance, foreign/external affairs or development. It should also be of interest to members of the EU Parliament and national legislatures that are engaged in these debates, as well as stakeholders from business and civil society.
