    Steve Krouskos
    Ernst & Young

    At EY, we believe everyone should be able to contribute toward and share in the benefits of economic growth.

We are proud to be working with a new breed of impact investors and entrepreneurs who are making it their business to tackle this inequality, driving inclusive growth by generating better answers to some of society’s toughest challenges. When these businesses work better, the world works better, which is why helping to accelerate their growth and impact is a vital part of fulfilling our purpose of building a better working world.  more[...]

  • Six Ambitions Based on the UN’s SDGs and Included in our Strategic Program

    EDF Group

    In 2016, we decided on six corporate responsibility goals. They mark out the path we have set for ourselves to achieve our CAP 2030 strategy and take into account the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) laid down by the United Nations. Although the SDGs are not aimed directly at companies, we firmly believe that these goals cannot be met without the active contribution of business organizations. We fully embrace the global approach of the SDGs, while remaining aware that we are but one of the many actors in this movement.  more[...]

    Lilian Furrer
    Adecco Group

    Accessing the world of work and finding a pathway to fulfill their personal potential is a major challenge for anyone out of – and seeking – work. This is especially so for the 73 million youths under the age of 25, fueling fears of a ‘jobless generation.’ Skills mismatch and a lack of experience, even among the most highly educated, can almost be perceived as a discriminatory barrier to employment, which is central to Global Compact Principle 6. It dashes dreams, wastes human capital, and damages productivity. The Adecco Group – the world’s leading provider of HR solutions – has not stood by idly.  more[...]

  • Wirtschaft & Menschenrechte – zwischen Antagonismus und Einklang

    Wo steht die Weltgemeinschaft im Hinblick auf die Integration von Menschenrechten in wirtschaftliche Prozesse - knapp dreieinhalb Jahre nach der Verabschiedung der UN Leitprinzipien zu Wirtschaft und Menschenrechten? Wie haben Regierungen die Leitprinzipien auf nationaler Ebene umgesetzt? Welches Echo fanden diese Grundsätze in global vernetzten Unternehmen? Vor dem Hintergrund dieser drängenden Fragen hat das Business & Human Rights Resource Centre zwei Projekte ins Leben gerufen: Eine Plattform zur Regierungspolitik zu Wirtschaft und Menschenrechten sowie eine Plattform der Unternehmensaktivitäten und -maßnahmen zu Menschenrechten.  more[...]
