Ep 122 - Sustainability: Understanding the Human Rights Impacts of Business, with Ro Coroneos
Today we are talking about human rights policy, within a corporate context, with my guest Ro Coroneos. Join us!
In this episode, we are talking about...
- How governments have a duty to uphold human rights, whilst corporates have a duty to respect them
- The requirement of organisations to remedy situations when rights are impacted
- How human rights policies must be embedded in organisational operating culture, values and behaviour through change management and communications strategies
- Human rights as an essential measure of business performance
- And the need for greater transparency of how social risks are being managed by organisations, due to heightened investor pressure
- An organisation's first step, is to review the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights
Ro says:
"The critical thing about organisations that demonstrate a respect for human rights is that you can see there are commitments practically in a company's behaviour." (Ro Coroneos, guest on Her Ambitious Career podcast)
