United Nations Global Compact
The United Nations Global Compact works with companies universally to align their operations and strategies with ten universal principles in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. PARCO is a member of the UN Global Compact and follows its reporting policy by filing the Communication on Progress (COP) report. PARCO submitted its twelfth Communication on Progress report in the year 2022.
The annual posting of a COP is an important demonstration of an organization’s commitment to the UN Global Compact and its principles. Our COP report illustrates PARCO’s commitment to UNGC’s Ten Principles, and the management systems, actions and performance of PARCO.
