RSPO RT12: On social and labour issues

We did not attend at these sessions yesterday but thanks to a reader for highlighting key issues:
a) A new Labour Working Group is being set up. This is expected to work on ultimately getting company-level worker collective bargaining in place.
b) In social assessments a new approach will come about. We think this will come to inform Compensation Liability on social issues. Currently only monetary and non monetary values and methods are set for environmental concerns.
We'll update as we hear and learn more. Likely these will be hot implementation topics to come as they get fleshed out. As ever, the devil is in the administration details.
