Human Rights Risk Analysis (HRDD) And Human Rights Impact Assessments (HRIA)
The UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs) lay out the expectation that companies should avoid infringing on the human rights of others and should address adverse impacts with which they are involved. To achieve this, businesses should carry out human rights due diligence, which is a six-step process for developing a policy commitment, identifying, and assessing actual and potential impacts, implementing measures to prevent and mitigate impacts, tracking the effectiveness of these measures, and reporting on how impacts are being addressed and cooperating with other parties to enable remedy.
Our fresh approach to HRDD provides a comprehensive, tailored solution to the challenges businesses face when attempting to meet increasing ESG expectations and put their corporate values into practice.
Whether you are just starting into journey of embedding HRDD or you have covered some steps our unique gap assessment approach will help you establish existing levels of understanding and maturity of process across your business.
Most of the due diligence systems we see today are aimed at identifying and understanding risks, but do not include action and prevention. Our Human Rights Due-Diligence framework draws on international best practice to guide you through designing and implementing a thorough HRDD approach in your own organization, project and, for larger enterprises, across the entire supply chain.
Using a normative human rights framework to measure risk, we assess and characterize severity of impacts on people by the impact on their lives, not by cost of investment or probability. This seems key to promoting effective action to address social risks and integrate the disciplines required to innovate—delivering sustainable and responsible business practices.

Focused Investigations (Forced Labor, Child Labor, Abuse and harassment, other topics)
Whether serious Human rights violations have been alleged against your company, or a thorough independent investigation is needed to better understand risks, our detailed, focused and unbiased investigations help you uncover the important details needed to take quick action.
Human rights violations are not easily quantified and are often difficult to investigate. We use a flexible and experimental model to investigate allegations. We have extensive experience investigating allegations and risks associated with forced labor, child labor and other unfair working conditions. Our investigations provide you with:
- An impartial verification of allegations or suspicions of human rights violations. We evaluate credibility of evidence, drawing on a creative non-binary approach
- An understanding of root causes where allegations or salient risks are found to be true. We are fully aware of the societal norms and business practices that lead to subpar working conditions.
- Recommendations for remediation. We support you in identifying appropriate remedial action.
Our investigation experts review witness testimonies, payroll and financial records, internal audits, photographs, and other supporting documents to build their cases for an enforcement action. We also work with public and private partners to collaborate on cases and gain additional clarity to help connect the dots. We evaluate publicly available information such as academic reports and media articles to place human rights violations in a broader context. We rely on evidence from sources with an on-the-ground presence in the location or region in question for further detail. This is particularly helpful in understanding less transparent and more complex supply chains.
Capability Building
To conduct human rights due diligence effectively, it is necessary to comprehend human rights risks and their effects on individuals and businesses.
Employees around the world are able to impact human rights by virtue of their positions. By being aware of company commitments and policies, individuals can avoid creating adverse impacts on human rights. However, with training and commitment, they can identify and respond to problems early, find better ways to operate and make changes in practice. So it’s crucial to determine who needs what information. And then build know-how and commitment to drive changes in culture.
How do we this:
- We help companies identify and implement capacity building programs by working with leaders and managers at all levels to support the changes necessary to include human rights concepts in all business activities.
- We tailor and deliver customized trainings on human rights-related topics to employees, board members, and suppliers. These trainings can be delivered in various formats to help companies expand knowledge and capabilities, reach alignment across teams, and strengthen human rights outcomes.
- By strengthening essential management processes, we assist organizations in laying the groundwork required to produce excellent social performance and increased business rewards.
