İndeks Signed The Global Compact Contract

Launched by United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan at the World Economic Forum in 1999, the Global Compact has been signed by hundreds of businesses and NGOs across the world. Global Compact is a voluntary initiative without any legal sanction. It is a roadmap shaped around ten fundamental principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption. Businesses joining Global Compact submit communications on progress in relation to their commitments.

On 10 February 2009, İndeks signed the Global Compact and joined the platform.

As a signatory of the agreement, İndeks committed to implement the universal principles that fully overlap with its stance and principles of existence, and to work to propagate the same.

The 10 fundamental principles of the Global Compact are as follows :

Human Rights

Principle 1: Businesses should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights within their sphere of influence, and

Principle 2: make sure that they are not complicit in human rights abuses.

Labor
