We are pleased to announce that we have joined the United Nations Global Compact initiative, a voluntary initiative for the development, implementation and disclosure of responsible business practices. 

Joining the Compact, reinforces our commitment to taking responsible business action to create the world we all want to live in. The Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact take into account the fundamental responsibilities of business in the areas of human rights, labour, environment, and anti-corruption.

These include: 

Human Rights 

Principle 1: Businesses should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights; and 

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

Labour 

Principle 3: Businesses should uphold the freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining; 

Principle 4: The elimination of all forms of forced and compulsory labour; 

Principle 5: The effective abolition of child labour; and 

Principle 6: The elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation. 

Environment 

Principle 7: Businesses should support a precautionary approach to environmental challenges; 

Principle 8: Undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility; and 

Principle 9: Encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies. 

Anti-Corruption 

Principle 10: Businesses should work against corruption in all its forms, including extortion and bribery. 

Commenting on our involvement with UN Global Compact, Madlen Jannaschk, ESG Director said:  

“As a global business we understand the immense level of responsibility we have to our people and the planet. They have both been integral pillars of what we value at Cundall. Supporting and being part of the UN Global Compact complements our commitments to zero carbon and to improving the world we live in.” 

With this renewed commitment, Cundall continues to pave the way for a more ethical, equitable, and sustainable future, setting a benchmark for responsible business in the global community.
