BUSINESS AND HUMAN RIGHTS

Namu Law Firm Bali

According to data from the National Commission On Human Rights (Komnas HAM RI), is an independent institution whose position is at the same level as other state institutions whose function is to carry out human rights studies, research, counseling, monitoring and mediation, mentioned that every year complaints against corporations to Komnas HAM are the highest than complaints against police officers. This is indicates that understanding of human rights material for business activities is still lacking, even though the UN principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs) as a pragmatic step to reduce human rights violations related to corporations have been published since 2011.

For businessman, complaints about corporate businesses to human rights institutions is certainly negative for the business image and can hinder or even close down operational activities if the complaint is proven. Currently, Komnas HAM RI continues to urge corporations to always respect these human rights principles.

To avoid negative stigma and the risk of closing down corporate business entities due to violations of human rights principles, NAMU Lawfirm has provided legal consulting services with a background of Advocates who have a background and skills in enforcing human rights principles in business.
