Many legal experts and business advisors believe the new law will have even greater worldwide impact than the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDRP), which is widely followed around the world. This session is to help ensure that companies seeking to comply with the law achieve the best results and do not overpay by engaging potentially high-priced legal, accounting, or management consulting firms who have never actually done the work.

The program is designed for boards, executives, management in marketing, sales, human resources, and finance, corporate sustainability/ESG, anyone in HR Metrics

charge of stakeholder management.

Attendees will receive a quick overview of the law and what it means to large organizations and their customers; what companies need to do based on whether the law is viewed as a compliance issue or an opportunity, and a basic overview of human capital standards and the auditing process.

The presenters are:

Dr. Heiko Mauterer, Senior Partner of Germany based 4C GROUP; member of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) working group that created and manages the ISO 30414 human capital standard, and whose company has audited the human capital reports of some enterprises conforming with ISO 30414 standards.

Dr. Mauterer will provide an overview of the law, its direct and indirect impact on European, North American and other businesses; its general principals, and how it aligns with ISO and other standards.

He will be joined by Stephan Grunwald, Senior Partner and founding member of 4C GROUP and an expert in the field of

sustainability management and reporting. He is one of the first practitioners to implement the new ESRS (European Sustainability Reporting Standards) within organisations and will discuss the benefits and success factors for the adoption of this new EU regulation, as well as an overview of the steps involved with organizing and manage the data needed for compliance, as well as the reporting submission process.

Bruce Bolger, Founder of the New York-based Enterprise Engagement Alliance's Engagement Agency, is one of the first if only companies to facilitate the creation of a human capital report generally consistent with the new European Union law in that it addresses all stakeholder.

Bolger will talk about the general implementation process based on an organization’s objectives and size; who generally should direct the effort, and the steps involved.

Zahid Mubarik, Founder of Pakistan-based HR Metrics, a leading human capital management, training, and certification firm

who serves on the ISO committee managing the ISO 30414 standards, and who has trained more professionals in ISO human capital standards than anyone else by a large margin. He will speak on the concept of human capital standards and independently audited reporting.

The organizations of the speakers have collaborated to create the first international corporate sustainability reporting organization providing a worldwide service for the creation and/or auditing of corporate sustainability reporting consistent with the new EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, whether an organization must directly comply or not.
