GN has implemented several policies for managing material impacts related to its own workforce. As a member of the UN Global Compact since 2010, GN is committed to safeguarding human rights and labor rights principles in its own workforce. Accordingly, GN operations and business activities are guided by the UN guiding principles on Business and Human Rights, ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. GN upholds human rights principles through the implementation of policies and procedures which prevent discrimination, harassment, advances diversity, and ensure fair and equal treatment of its workforce.

GN has introduced a number of initiatives and due diligence processes to ensure it can engage with value chain workers or their proxies to take measures in enabling remedy of negative impacts. GN's Supplier Code of Conduct covers all 9 IROs identified under this topic and requires suppliers to comply with the minimum requirements set out in this code. GN considers any actual or potential impacts on value chain workers in decisions to resolve issues with a supplier. GN's human rights policy commitments cover all value chain workers across all geographies.
