Establishing decent working conditions for all direct and indirect employees
Posted: Sun Jan 12, 2025 3:58 am
Whether small businesses or large industrial groups, but also self-employed entrepreneurs or independent workers, everyone must take responsibility for implementing and improving these SDGs.
We can thus find significant means implemented by companies according to these objectives . Spanish companies, for example, have defined objectives related to sustainable development, mainly responsible consumption and production. This approach then focuses on greater attention to production and manufacturing processes that must respect a positive social impact. Since SMEs are very numerous in the country's entrepreneurial fabric, it is therefore not surprising that the impact is significant and that the actions have repercussions on the entire system.
In France, local authorities have developed two avenues: awareness-raising and integration via effective tools.
SDGs at the global level
Around the world, companies are promoting sustainable development goals that are linked to national goals that will then be more or less similar. Various documents (whether private or public) have been drafted to facilitate the implementation of these companies' sustainable development goals. The SDGs favored mainly concern human rights.
The guide to human rights in the SDGs
A document has been drawn up regarding the development of human rights. This was written by the Danish Institute for Human Rights. It is based on objectives that have different cross-cutting coincidences with human rights, these being defined by non-discriminatory and equality principles. The guide will then be defined according to relationships between 169 sustainable development objectives of companies and their tools applicable to human rights. The guide establishes correlations with international labor standards. The Global Compact will then have to request a certain number of actions that will be put in band database place according to the different entities at the level of the relations they maintain with third parties. It will therefore be essential that the sustainable development objectives are concerned via:
A coherent wage policy;
The establishment of collective negotiations with the aim of enabling employees to improve their working conditions;
The creation of an inclusive business policy that ensures that low-income people, but also small businesses, are not excluded from the entrepreneurial fabric;
A policy of equality;
The proposal and production of products and services accessible to vulnerable people by adapting prices and characteristics according to these prices and services;
The establishment of a system for evaluating suppliers who will be reliable, and this to ensure that they implement quality actions;
That each entity establishes an effective human rights culture;
That the environmental impact is limited.
