Commitments & Achievements

In alignment with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, our commitment to respect human rights by tackling forced labour was launched in 2016 with the industry’s first-ever Social Resolution on Forced Labour. Today, we offer a valuable space for businesses to work on upholding this responsibility by convening industry peers and experts to develop best practices for initiating and improving human rights due diligence across the industry.
