Abstract
This chapter considers how human rights due diligence (HRDD) could be embedded in law in a way that would increase its potential effectiveness as a tool of transnational labour law. In doing so, it draws upon three strands of literature introduced earlier in the book: transnational labour law, regulatory theory, and legal endogeneity theory. The chapter emphasises the importance of maintaining HRDD’s broad purpose and scope and of embedding enforceable rights for workers and their representatives throughout the HRDD process. These include rights to information, to consultation, and to enforcement. It also considers appropriate national oversight and dispute resolution mechanisms for HRDD regulation. The final part of the chapter emphasises the importance of securing improvements to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development National Contact Point system.
