March 2014

Last week, I had the pleasure of presenting a session on Conflict Minerals: the U.S. Conflict Minerals Law & EU’s Responsible Sourcing Initiative at Chemical Watch’s Global Supply Chain Workshop.

For the past fifteen years, 3E has worked diligently with our clients and partners to establish and enhance best practices for integrating EH&S regulatory content into the SAP EHS Management (SAP EHSM) application and for handling regulatory change management on a global basis.

On March 5 the European Union announced its proposal for responsible sourcing for minerals from conflict zones. The Regulation would require importers who “opt-in” to the self-certification scheme to exercise due diligence in line with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance.
