The Human Rights Policy  is a 5 page document, with an about this document section, instructions on tailoring the document and a document revision record. The document then goes into the introduction and application of a human rights policy, what policies the company will follow, what the company will expect from their suppliers, what happens when non-compliance to the policy occurs and who is responsible for the policy. 

This Human Rights Policy outlines your organisation’s commitment to upholding human rights values in your business activities and is an essential document for your business to demonstrate its corporate and social responsibilities.

Please check your national and local regulatory requirements as there may be a requirement by law to meet certain obligations in relation to human rights (i.e. hiring requirements, anti-discrimination measures etc.).  Promitheia recommends you undertake your own research and if necessary, obtain independent advice regarding your organisation’s obligations.

Promitheia recommends making this Policy available to all employees, as well as featuring it prominently on your company website (if applicable).  If you would like to know more about how to implement a Human Rights policy, you can contact Promitheia directly to arrange a one-on-one virtual meeting.  We also recommend updating this policy annually (or more frequently as required) to ensure it remains up to date with the United Nations principles.
