Compliance Assessment Tools

Human Rights Impact Assessment tools are based on the normative framework of international human rights law laid down in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the international Covenants on Civil and Political Rights, and on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights.

Various Human Rights Impact Assessment tools have been developed, some of which are referred to as compliance assessments, others as risk assessments. While some assessments are more project-based, others apply a rather integrated management approach.

The following tools ensure the implementation of human rights throughout the corporate practices and management system. Use the Search/Filter options to search for toolsets to meet specific requirements. Click on column heading to sort results (click again to change sort order).
