This panel will examine the evolving landscape of corporate accountability, focusing on the personal liability of officers and directors for human rights violations committed by corporations. With rising expectations on companies to uphold human rights standards across global supply chains, executives face increasing scrutiny over their roles and responsibilities. The discussion will address recent legal developments, key cases, and the frameworks that are shaping accountability, from national regulations to international guidelines such as the 'United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights'. Esteemed experts in corporate law, human rights, and governance will analyse the risks and implications for leadership in an era where corporate responsibility extends beyond financial performance.
