The Human Rights Working Group is committed
to promoting internationally recognized human rights standards
in corporations’ operations, their suppliers and in
the societies where they do business. The Working Group challenges
corporations to adopt, implement, monitor and report on comprehensive
human rights policies that respect the rights of employees
and the rights of individuals and groups in the societies
where they operate.
Mission Statement
We believe that every human being is created in the image
of God. The dignity of the human person must be respected
and protected. We believe the promotion and protection of
human rights –civil, political, social, religious, cultural
and economic—are minimum standards for all social institutions,
including companies. We commit to work to change corporate
policies and practices to ensure respect for the basic human
rights of all stakeholders.
