Risk management is an important driver of why companies form their own human rights policies. But collaborative approaches to human rights aligned with the key voluntary standards can also be opportunities for companies. In this episode of Sustainability Leaders, Michael Torrance, Chief Sustainability Officer at BMO, discusses business, human rights and sustainability law with Yousuf Aftab, partner with the law firm Steptoe. Their conversation spanned Yousuf’s work on the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights as well as how he advises companies on developing human rights policies.
