Our commitment to human rights
At Deloitte, we are committed to respecting and advancing human rights. We believe that all people are born free and equal in dignity and rights.
Our commitment to human rights is inherent in our Purpose, to make an impact that matters, and is underpinned by our Shared Values that set the expectations we have for our people.
We commit to advancing the following human rights within our organization: employment and workers’ rights, equality and non-discriminatory treatment, environmental sustainability, education and skills development, anti-corruption, privacy, and trustworthy technology.
We expect organizations with which we have a business relationship to uphold our commitment to human rights. Deloitte’s Supplier Code of Conduct defines our expectations of suppliers, including treating workers with dignity and respect and not subjecting them to demeaning conditions. Deloitte’s Commitment to Responsible Business Practices outlines our approach to our business relationships, including whom we work with and the work we do.
We are committed to adapting and improving our processes and procedures going forward, as well as further evolving our Human Rights Statement and our commitments.
Our commitment to human rights is based on the International Bill of Human Rights and is further guided by the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP), and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.
