Innovative Systems and the UN Global Compact

 
 

In October 2006, Innovative Systems joined the United Nations Global Compact, pledging to adhere to its 10 principles governing human rights, labor, the environment and anti-corruption. The Global Compact is a voluntary corporate citizenship initiative that was proposed by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 1999 at the World Economic Forum. By promoting the fulfillment of corporate social responsibilities, the Global Compact and its participating entities seek to achieve a more sustainable and inclusive global economy.

10 Principles of the UN Global Compact:
Human Rights:
1 Businesses should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights; and
2 make sure that they are not complicit in human rights abuses.
Labor Standards:
3 Businesses should uphold the freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining;
4 the elimination of all forms of forced and compulsory labor;
5 the effective abolition of child labor; and
6 the elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation.
Environment:
7 Businesses should support a precautionary approach to environmental challenges;
8 undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility; and
9 encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies
Anti-Corruption:
10 Businesses should work against all forms of corruption, including extortion and bribery.
