摘要
Adequate administration of Human Rights (HR) in business presents difficulties,. The Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs) cons-titute the key tool for good governance. Their approval in 2011 by the United Nations was a historic milestone. The core of the company's performance regarding the UNGPs is the Due Diligencess is critical for its imple-mentation. As of 2020, the European Union (EU) initia-ted work on a Directive that will make Do Diligence man-datory. This article investigates, through in-depth interviews with company presidents and directors, the degree of preparation of BoDs for the new regulatory scenario in Spain, Portugal, France and Malta
