Corporate Human Rights Benchmark
About this tool
The Corporate Human Rights Benchmark (CHRB) assesses and compares the human rights performance of the world’s largest companies, aiming to drive transparency, accountability, and improved business practices by providing clear metrics across sectors such as governance, human rights due diligence, grievance mechanisms, and actual performance. Its strengths lie in its comprehensive, standardized scoring system, which allows for cross-industry and cross-company comparisons, and in its ability to highlight leaders and laggards, thereby encouraging better corporate behavior and providing stakeholders with actionable insights. However, the CHRB has limitations, including reliance on publicly available information, which may result in incomplete or biased assessments if companies do not disclose relevant data.
