Corporate Human Rights Benchmark – Core UNGP Indicators

The Corporate Human Rights Benchmark’s Core UNGP Indicators serve as a stand-alone methodology to assess whether companies are implementing key expectations of the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs).​

This streamlined methodology comprises 13 indicators selected from our full Corporate Human Rights Benchmark Methodology, which includes approximately 50 indicators across five different themes. The Core UNGP Indicators are applicable across industries and cover four critical areas of the UNGPs: high-level commitments, embedding human rights in management systems, human rights due diligence, and access to remedy.​

This is an updated methodology. The previous version was published in September 2021. ​
