EMBEDDING RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS

The macro-level process of ensuring that a company’s responsibility to respect human rights is driven across the organization, into its business values and culture. It requires that all personnel are aware of the company’s public commitment to respect human rights, understand its implications for how they conduct their work, are trained, empowered and incentivized to act in ways that support the commitment, and regard it as intrinsic to the core values of the workplace. Embedding is one continual process, generally driven from the top of the company.
