Who should conduct a Human Rights Impact Assessment?
Companies at all stages of their sustainability journey can benefit from carrying out an assessment.
A human rights impact assessment helps companies identify, prevent, and address risks that affect people across their operations and value chain. By embedding this process into strategy, businesses strengthen resilience, build trust, and demonstrate genuine commitment to responsible growth.

Chief Executive Officer & Co-FounderKey Questions and Considerations
We recognize companies have different appetites for public reporting on sensitive issues. Our approach helps you build a human rights program that instills confidence over time. We don’t believe that reporting comes first – instead, awareness of salient human rights issues, followed by steps to monitor and manage them through due diligence, are the foundations we build in this program.
Yes, we are familiar with many reporting requirements and have a tried-and-true process of itemizing all requirements, compiling information from your team, and performing benchmarking so we may advise on best practices for developing a compliant response that meets your desired level
of transparency.
An increasing number of countries now require companies to report not only on policies like a Supplier Code of Conduct, but also on the processes used to identify actual and potential human rights impacts. Establishing stronger actions is essential to show a proactive approach. Our method focuses on targeted steps and engages the right people across your company—helping reduce the risk of human rights violations.
So what's the bottom line?
A clear understanding of human rights risks helps companies protect against regulatory penalties while safeguarding operations and supply chains. It also builds customer loyalty, enhances reputation, and strengthens investor confidence.
