Human Rights & Commercial Real Estate (BOMA) 10 October 2022
This guide addresses how the developing issue of Business and Human Rights (BHR) affects property ownership and management industries. Addressing BHR is a way to strengthen cultures of respect, dignity and ethics within our member organizations and mitigate risk.
This Guide provides an overview of the key BHR concepts drawn from the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs) and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises (OECD Guidelines). It then applies these concepts to property ownership and management before setting out how to incorporate BHR concerns into your operations. Finally, the appendices provide examples for due diligence and contractual provisions.
