The GEO Group has formulated a Human Rights Policy based on an understanding that respect for human rights is the most important and fundamental requirement for not only social activities, but also for the business activities of the Group.
This Policy shall be revised in line with changes in our business activities and changes in the external business environment, such as demands from stakeholders.
All stakeholders of the Group, including executives, employees, customers, and business partners
The Group builds and continuously implements a human rights due diligence framework based on the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights to identify adverse human rights impacts and risks and strive to prevent and mitigate them.
The Group strives to rectify and relieve negative impacts on human rights via an internal reporting desk that enables whistleblowers to report incidents anonymously. We are also considering building a framework that allows related stakeholders to report any concerns they may have on issues such as human rights.
The Group sincerely holds dialogue and consultation with stakeholders whose human rights may be directly or indirectly subjected to negative impacts due to our business activities, in regard to this Policy and our initiatives for respecting human rights. We also reflect the opinions of stakeholders via dialogue with experts such as lawyers specializing in the field of human rights.
The Group provides appropriate education to ensure that this Policy becomes established and entrenched in all our business activities, such as periodically conducting training for all of our employees.
The Group will disclose information on the progress of its human rights initiatives in a timely and appropriate manner through its website and other channels.
This Policy is formulated and revised by the Group’s Board of Directors.
