The Global Compact calls on companies to adopt, support and implement within their sphere of influence a set of core values in the areas of human rights, labor and environmental standards and anti-corruption. In other words, companies must make real progress only in the areas that affect them.
These ten principles are inspired by :
- The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
- The Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work
- International Labor Organization
- The Rio Declaration on Environment and Development
- The United Nations Convention against Corruption
Human Rights

- Ensure that their own companies are not complicit in human rights abuses.
Labor Standards

- The elimination of all forms of forced or compulsory labor;
- The effective abolition of child labor;
- The elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation.
Environment
- Companies are encouraged to apply the precautionary approach to environmental problems;
- Take initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility;
- Encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies.
Fight against corruption
