It explains the directive's purpose to harmonize sustainability due diligence obligations across the EU, requiring large EU and non-EU companies to identify, prevent, mitigate, and end adverse human rights and environmental impacts throughout their operations and supply chains. The CSDDD introduces phased compliance timelines through 2029, mandates adoption of risk-based due diligence policies, climate transition plans aligned with the Paris Agreement, and whistleblower mechanisms. It also establishes significant liability risks, including civil litigation and regulatory penalties of up to 5% of global turnover for non-compliance. The guide highlights the interplay between CSDDD and CSRD reporting requirements and offers practical steps for companies to prepare, such as scoping, updating processes, mitigating litigation risk, and leveraging technology for compliance
