How It Works
From Salient Issues to Board-Ready Disclosure
The UNGP process made operational — identify, assess, act, remedy, report — with governance at every stage.
Identify Salient Issues
Map your most severe human rights risks using industry benchmarks, stakeholder input, and AI-assisted prioritisation.
Assess & Score
Run structured assessments across operations and supply chain. Questionnaires, audits, and country-level risk data combined.
Remediate & Track
Create corrective action plans with owners, timelines, and evidence. Monitor progress and verify effectiveness.
Report & Disclose
Generate CSDDD-ready reports, UNGC Communications on Progress, and framework-aligned disclosures with full audit trail.
Core Capabilities
Complete Human Rights Due Diligence
Every UNGP pillar operationalised — with supply chain depth, grievance mechanism, and regulatory reporting built in.
Salient Issue Identification
Systematic identification and prioritisation of human rights issues most at risk of severe negative impacts — aligned to UNGP severity criteria.
- Severity × Likelihood scoring
- Industry-specific issue libraries
- Stakeholder consultation tracking
- Year-over-year comparison
Risk Assessment & Questionnaires
Structured assessment questionnaires by category — labour rights, working conditions, community impacts, land rights, and digital rights.
- Pre-built UNGP-aligned templates
- Supplier self-assessment portal
- On-site audit scheduling
- Risk heat mapping
Remediation & Action Plans
Corrective action plan (CAP) tracking with responsible owners, deadlines, evidence requirements, and effectiveness verification.
- CAP creation and assignment
- Milestone tracking
- Evidence document linking
- Effectiveness re-assessment
Grievance Mechanism Integration
Integrated operational-level grievance mechanism meeting UNGP effectiveness criteria — accessible, predictable, equitable, transparent, and rights-compatible.
- Multi-channel intake (web, phone, email)
- Case tracking and resolution
- Anonymity protection
- Response time monitoring
Supply Chain Deep-Tier Visibility
Map human rights risks beyond Tier 1 — into raw material sourcing, sub-contractors, and informal supply chains where severe impacts concentrate.
- Tier 1–3+ supplier mapping
- Country risk scoring
- Sector-specific indicators
- Linked to Third-Party DD module
CSDDD & Framework Reporting
Pre-mapped disclosure outputs for CSDDD, UNGP Reporting Framework, GRI 407–414, UNGC Principles 1–6, and ESRS S1/S2.
- CSDDD compliance tracker
- GRI 407–414 auto-population
- UNGC CoP evidence linking
- ESRS S1/S2 narrative generation
UNGP Framework
The UN Guiding Principles Made Operational
Track your progress across all five UNGP pillars — policy commitment, due diligence process, remediation, grievance mechanisms, and reporting — with evidence linking, gap identification, and board-level visibility.
1
Policy Commitment
Board-approved human rights policy with supply chain embedding
2
Ongoing Due Diligence
Not a one-off — continuous assessment with annual refresh cycles
3
Access to Remedy
Operational grievance mechanism meeting all 8 UNGP effectiveness criteria
Why SustainGRC
Not a Checkbox Exercise
CSDDD demands substantive due diligence — not a questionnaire you send once a year. SustainGRC operationalises the full UNGP process with the depth regulators expect.
CSDDD-Ready from Day One
The EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive requires systematic HRDD. SustainGRC is pre-mapped to every CSDDD obligation with gap tracking and compliance scoring.
Beyond Tier 1
Most platforms stop at direct suppliers. SustainGRC maps risks into Tier 2, 3, and raw material sourcing — where forced labour and child labour actually concentrate.
Integrated, Not Bolted On
HRDD findings feed directly into ESG reporting, ERM, and third-party due diligence modules. No re-entry. No reconciliation. One audit trail.
AI Assists, Humans Decide
AI suggests risk prioritisation and flags high-risk suppliers based on country, sector, and commodity indicators. Every recommendation requires human review.
Grievance Meets Governance
Operational-level grievance mechanism built to UNGP effectiveness criteria — with case management, anonymity, and board-level reporting.
