Companies are likely to face increasing expectations, pressures, and incentives for enhanced due diligence on human rights...In general, South African companies are not in a good position to respond to such increased expectations. Case studies...show that human rights related policies and performance are uneven and that there are a number of important gaps or weaknesses...The above factors give rise to a strong argument for the National Business Initiative to support its members, and South African business in general, in enhancing due diligence on human rights.
