Human Rights

 

The CSR program engages with corporations to be accountable and to establish informal and formal codes of conduct on human rights. We ask them to teach employees about their codes and measure their compliance with them. We ask businesses to commit to hire without discrimination and we as a church will support legislation, ordinances, and resolutions that guarantee equality to all persons.
