The intersection of human rights and business is an area of tremendous challenge. Where we have fallen short, we believe in accepting responsibility and finding ways to do better.
We issued our board-approved human rights policy in 2019. Since then, we have introduced the principles of leverage and remedy. We have trained our workforce and our board on these principles. EDC has an ESG advisory council, a member of which is part of the working group on the UN's guiding principles on business and human rights.
