Human rights and discrimination issues can be some of the most complex and challenging issues organizations may face. With an organization’s reputation on the line, along with ever-increasing potential liability when facing human rights complaints, organizations need to be informed of their obligations and be prepared to appropriately respond to complex human rights issues as they arise.
