The European Union is the world's second largest economy in terms of GDP. The 27 EU Member States account for about 14% of global trade in goods. With power always comes great responsibility for the people and workers in supply chains. The ETUC, together with trade unions and civil society organisations worldwide, is committed to creating decent working conditions for all. European prosperity must not be based on exploitation in the global South. A strong directive on corporate sustainable due diligence (CSDD) can help harness Europe's economic power to move closer to the ideal of good work worldwide.
