UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs): every control, and what you already have

26 controls 52 frameworks share controls with it International (United Nations) verified against its source document

Every control below is one this framework asks for. The right hand column counts how many other frameworks in our corpus carry the same control, which is the difference between doing this work once and doing it again for the next standard.

There is no implementation kit for this framework yet. The control list and the overlap above are free and complete.

What this page is

A control-level reference for UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), drawn from our framework corpus. Control codes and titles are references to the standard, not reproductions of it. The overlap counts and the auditor artefacts are our own work and are the part you will not find elsewhere.
