New technologies and globalization have led to changes in society in general, resulting in an even greater transformation in the role played by companies in their spheres of activity. Society, in turn, has become more aware of the need to care for the environment, respect human rights and promote the social and economic development of underdeveloped regions.
The United Nations Global Compact is an initiative for the ethical commitment of companies worldwide to support ten behavioral principles as an integral part of their strategy and operations in the areas of human rights, labour, the environment and anti-corruption. |
The Compact is composed of companies, NGOs, labor unions, governments and community groups that promote and disseminate its principles.
With this initiative, Torraspapel is committed to incorporating the ten principles in its strategy, culture and daily operations. The goal now is to guarantee the observance of this Compact, as well as to publicly advocate the objectives and principles of this worldwide movement.
