The Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact integrated by JEMS since 2013

The UN Global Compact, a special initiative of the UN Secretary-General, is a call to companies worldwide to align their operations and strategies with Ten Principles in the areas of human rights, labour, the environment, and anti-corruption. JEMS has responded to this call since 2013 and has been committed for over a decade now to taking action to support the UN's objectives, embodied in the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact

The Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact are structured around four fundamental areas:

  • Human rights to promote and respect fundamental rights recognised at international level.
  • International labour standards to ensure freedom of association, the right to collective bargaining, eliminate forced labour and child labour, as well as all forms of discrimination in employment.
  • The environment to adopt a preventive approach to environmental challenges, promote ecological responsibility, and encourage the development and dissemination of sustainable technologies.
  • The fight against corruption act firmly against corruption in all its forms, including extortion and bribery.
