Social responsibility and human rights responsibility

Social responsibility defines the good treatment of people and is one of the three key areas of corporate sustainability. The foundation of social responsibility is made of human rights responsibility informed by international human rights and sustainability standards. Through tailored coaching, we help companies understand what social responsibility and its underlying corporate human rights responsibility mean and how companies can improve their productivity and performance by investing in them.

Human rights responsibility in procurement

Implementing corporate sustainability requires that the company has an adequate understanding of its value chain and the main actual and potential (negative) impacts therein and addresses the impacts. Taking adequate steps to ensure sustainability in the company's supply chain is often one of the most challenging areas for companies. To meet the sustainability and responsibility requirements in procurement, it is crucial to understand what actions can be reasonably expected from the company.

Documents supporting corporate sustainability

Companies implement the requirements of corporate sustainability among other things with various documents - with written commitments, policy documents, Codes of Conduct and contracts. We analyse the company's existing documents and give recommendations on their content, whether they adequately support the company's work on corporate sustainability. Sometimes some updating or even a new document is needed.
