If you are an EU importer of tin, tantalum, tungsten or gold (3TG) covered by the EU Conflict Minerals Regulation, as of 1 January your due diligence process must comply with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance. Non-compliance may have serious legal and reputational consequences.

You may have listened to webinars and read white papers on conflict minerals due diligence and compliance. But, if you haven’t done so already, now you actually have to get down to business and develop your own due diligence program. Conflict minerals due diligence is more than mere supplier engagement.  So, are you sure that you are working on all the recommended steps?

Join Dynda Thomas and Bernhard Maier for a four-part series of 30-minute workshops zeroing in on Steps 1 – 4 of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance and the specific actions that are included in the OECD’s recommendations. You can join us for any one or all of the sessions.  The workshop will share some valuable insights from due diligence procedures implemented by US companies to comply with the US Conflict Minerals Rule.

Agenda (all sessions start at 1 p.m. GMT)

  • Thursday 4 February 2021: OECD Step 1 – Strong Company Management Systems
  • Thursday 11 February 2021: OECD Step 2 – Identify and Assess Risks
  • Thursday 18 February 2021: OECD Step 3 – Address and Mitigate Risks
  • Thursday 25 February 2021: OECD Step 4 – Independent Third-party Audits

Register for the 4 part workshop
