Clyde & Co signed the UN Global Compact in 2018. We have committed to embrace, support and enact, within our sphere of influence, the core values in the areas of human rights, labour standards, the environment and anti- corruption. These core values make up the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact. The Ten Principles provide a framework that helps businesses to understand how to operate, and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are an ambitious vision of what a business’s activities should work to achieve by 2030.
