Sedex Launches Free Tool for Mapping Global Supply Chain Regulations
Sedex has introduced Regulatory Navigator, a free self-serve tool designed to help organizations understand which global supply chain regulations apply to them. The platform provides an instant summary of relevant legal requirements based on user inputs such as headquarters location, revenue size, workforce numbers, market presence, and import activity. The launch comes amid increasing complexity in international regulation related to sustainability reporting and labor practices like forced labor. With varying rules across jurisdictions, companies often struggle with compliance thresholds and deadlines. Regulatory Navigator highlights eight key regulations including the EU CSDDD, CSRD, Forced Labour Regulation, Canada's S-211 Act, and Australia’s Modern Slavery Act. Sedex CEO Jon Hancock emphasized that businesses need clarity over complexity to prioritize actions effectively. The tool aims to help teams develop compliance roadmaps while improving supply chain resilience through better visibility.
