2. Social responsibility type of policies, which include:

Employment Policies and Procedures:

  • Fair pay
  • Social dialogue
  • Work-life balance
  • Gender equality
  • Equal pay for equal work
  • Health and safety
  • Diversity

  • Engagement with affected value chain workers and communities
  • Measures to remedy human rights impacts and/or provide opportunities for remedy
  • Human rights impacts related to products and services
  • Measures to provide and/or enable remedy for human rights impacts on consumers and end-users

3. Governance policies and procedures, which include:

  • Transparent, accountable, and ethical business practices
  • Corporate governance framework, including defining roles and responsibilities of the board of directors and executives, reporting lines, accountability
  • Ensuring transparency and reporting
  • Ensuring compliance with legal and ethical standards
  •  Cybersecurity and data protection

(Cybersecurity plays a significant role in ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) considerations for organizations, particularly in the governance and risk management aspects. There’s growing pressure for businesses to be transparent on their corporate commitment activities in cybersecurity and ESG, therefore companies must have proper policies and procedures in place to ensure proper handling of personal data. Proper policies and procedures help organisations to meet regulatory compliance obligations, reduce the risk of a data breach, promote trust and confidence and make all subjects aware of data processing in the organisation.) 

  • Risk Management and risk assessments:

We prepare risk management procedures that help identify, assess, and mitigate potential risks for companies, especially financial institutions.
