As part of our commitment to being a responsible and sustainable company, Mannaz has joined the UN Global Compact
As a participant in the UN Global Compact, Mannaz is committed to aligning strategies and operations with universal principles on human rights, labour, environment, anti-corruption, anti-slavery, anti-trafficking, and anti-child labour, and taking actions that advance societal goals.
It’s our goal to take responsible business actions to create the world we all want.
Please take a moment to read our latest Communication on Progress (CoP).
1) Businesses should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights; and
2) make sure that they are not complicit in human rights abuse
3) Businesses should uphold the freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining;
4) the elimination of all forms of forced and compulsory labour;
5) the effective abolition of child labour; and
6) the elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation.
7) Businesses should support a precautionary approach to environmental challenges;
8) undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility;
9) and encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies.
10) Businesses should work against corruption in all its forms, including extortion and bribery.
The UN Global Compact is a call to companies everywhere to align their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles. These are in the areas of human rights, labour, environment, and anti-corruption. Companies are asked to support UN goals and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The compact is the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world. It’s a leadership platform for the development, implementation, and disclosure of responsible corporate practices. Since its launch in 2000, more than 9,500 companies and 3,000 non-business based in over 160 countries have signed up. There are more than 70 Local Networks.
Companies join because they share a conviction that business practices rooted in universal principles contribute to a more stable and inclusive global market. These practices help build prosperous and thriving societies where businesses can succeed.
The SDGs were adopted by all the UN Member States in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030.
Mannaz’ approach to sustainability is to move what matters. As well as focusing on the 10 principles of the UN Global Compact, we have chosen to focus on the six Sustainable Development Goals below as part of our strategic priorities. They have a close relation to our business and client collaboration. We are dedicated to meeting this ambition and strive to improve and measure our performance against these six SDGs.
