In this episode of Ibec Responds, we delve into the upcoming changes brought by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) with expert insights from Kara McGann, Head of Skills and Social Policy at Ibec, and guest speakers Dr Dorothy Maxwell and Dr Helen Kavanagh of Davy Horizons.
As Ibec and Davy Horizons prepare to launch their new toolkit, Unpacking CSRD: A Guide for Business, the conversation explores the significant implications of these new regulations. Dr Maxwell and Dr Kavanagh discuss what businesses must do to remain compliant, how the scope of CSRD will affect both large and smaller entities, and the broader influence of sustainability on corporate reporting practices.
