Cefic Lab: Legal Horizon on Navigating Environmental Justice, Due Diligence and Competition Law

Members only.

The workshop is foreseen to take place in hybrid format. Onsite presence is limited and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis and depending on availability. Online participation is also available. Thank you for your understanding.

Staying informed of legal trends is paramount, particularly in the dynamic landscape of the chemicals industry in Europe. Environmental justice: recent EU policy debates on industrial emission rules has prompted discussions on the burden of proof in compensatory claims. Meanwhile, the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive was formally adopted, triggering new challenges and opportunities for chemical companies. And the European Commission completed its review of the competition law framework in light of the EU Green Deal.

This one-day workshop will provide guidance on some of these issues: How are compensation claims handled for health damages related to pollution? What corporate practices would you need to adapt to comply with new Due Diligence rules? How to manage antitrust risks in corporate collaborations to advance sustainability?

Cefic members and partners are invited you to join Cefic’s legal team to:

• Get updated on important legal developments in the EU and the challenges they raise;
• Understand new requirements and prepare for compliance;
• Exchange insights, views and strategies to manage potential solutions to common issues.

The full programme is available for download.

Join us to build resilience and stay ahead in the evolving legal landscape of the chemicals sector.
