The new LkSG 2025 perspective was published in January. It was created taking into account customer feedback and minor adjustments to the event types have been made.
For the upcoming reporting year Prewave provides the LkSG 2025 perspective, slightly adapted to target the LKSG. The perspective has been adapted and following event types have been removed:
- Labor dispute
- Labor strike
- Protest/Demonstration
The event type Labor Rights Violation remains to cover the requirements of the German Supply Chain Act (LkSG).
