OPEN EVENT
The Responsible Trucking Platform invites companies to discover how a collaborative approach can help address social and human rights challenges in the road transport sector and contribute to better working conditions for truck drivers.
Open to companies interested in joining the Responsible Trucking Platform, the webinar will introduce the initiative, its objectives and activities, and the value of engaging in a cross-sectoral approach to responsible road transport. Participants will learn how companies from different sectors work together to identify shared challenges, exchange best practices and develop practical solutions across the road transport supply chain.
Facilitated by CSR Europe, Responsible Trucking brings together shippers, carriers and other stakeholders to address sustainability and human rights risks in road transport. The session will highlight the Platform’s key achievements in recent years, with insights from current members and contributions from:
Alejandra Cruz Ross, Transport Specialist, International Labour Organisation
Adele Kirschner, Manager Human Rights / Legal Counsel, Daimler Truck
Lea Esterhuizen, Founder and CEO, &Wider
The webinar will also showcase the Platform’s work to establish common standards for supplier conduct and develop the Truck Transport Social Guidelines, providing practical guidance for companies on responsible sourcing and human rights due diligence (HRDD).
Participants will discover how the Platform’s tools, data and insights can help companies identify and address social sustainability risks, strengthen supply-chain transparency and tackle challenges linked to complex subcontracting structures. The session will also explore how cooperation between shippers, carriers and companies across sectors can support practical improvements and more responsible road transport.
