GN is committed to ensuring that human rights are safeguarded and that we manage our material sustainability matters related to value chain workers. Our human rights policy commitments cover all value chain workers across all geographies in which we operate to enable identification, assessment, and management, or remediation of our material IROs. GN is committed to the UN’s principles of responsible business, having been a signatory of the UN Global Compact since 2010. Over the last reporting period, we have observed no cases of non-respect to these principles involving value chain workers in our upstream or downstream value chain. To address our human rights policy commitments, GN has introduced a number of initiatives and due diligence processes to ensure we are able to engage with value chain workers or their proxies and representatives to take measures enabling remedy of our negative impacts. Furthermore, we strive to set policy commitments that inform GN’s overall strategy and work in this area, ensuring we take into account the interests, views, and rights of workers in the value chain.
