Abstract

Sustainability is on everyone´s lips. It is also increasingly influencing Union legislation. Recently, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive came into force. The Directive also contains requirements regarding sustainability reporting on social issues. These are concretised by the specific disclosure requirements developed by the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG). This article takes a critical look at the Directive and in particular its content with regard to labour law issues, but also at the role of EFRAG in substantiating the reporting obligations of companies.

Keywords

Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive; the “social dimension” of sustainability reporting; International Labour Standards; delegated acts, EFRAG
