Abstract:Globalisation has caused lengthy supply chains, making it complex to grasp the full extent of supplier relations upstream in the supply chain. Offshoring to low-cost countries comes with ethical issues, which have increased over time. These ethical objections regarding human rights, labour rights, and environmental concerns culminated in the European Union devising the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD). The directive places liabilities on the affected companies for EU-law breaches by their supplier. Therefore, a change in supply chains and purchasing is needed. This research aims to answer the following question: Which purchasing competencies are required to ensure compliance with the CSDDD?
