Developing Human Rights Due Diligence

The UNGPs require that companies establish robust due diligence procedures to demonstrate they understand how their activities impact on human rights and the remedies they have established to address any issues that may arise. Companies should also ensure they have a robust due diligence process in place as a legal defence.

The UNGPs due diligence procedure

The UNGPs  are a gamechanger. They are not a membership organisation but set the standards for organisations to address human rights abuses.

One of the essential elements for a company to demonstrate respect for human rights is to ensure it has developed a due diligence procedure.

Increasingly mandatory reporting legislation requires that companies demonstrate that they have appropriate due diligence procedures in place. For example,  the EU non financial reporting directive, the French Vigilance law and the Australian Modern Slavery Act.

What we offer

We can provide online and face to face support to help your organisation develop its due diligence processes. We can support you by:

  • conducting a gap analysis on key policies and procedures within your organisation
  • facilitating the completion of a compliance and best practice checklist with reference to include the Modern Slavery Act and other key governance aspects
  • providing a report on the key human rights legislation and reporting requirements that will affect your business to help you develop an appropriate due diligence procedure
  • carrying out a human rights impact assessment
