Handbook on Environmental Due Diligence in Mineral Supply Chains
This handbook was developed to help companies embed environmental considerations into
their mineral supply chain due diligence procedures. The handbook builds on the leading
international, government-backed standards on supply chain due diligence and responsible
business conduct: the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises on Responsible
Business Conduct, the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of
Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas and the OECD Due Diligence Guidance
for Responsible Business Conduct. This handbook demonstrates how OECD instruments
on due diligence can be applied to address environmental risks and impacts in mineral
supply chains by contextualising existing recommendations and directing users towards
useful resources.
