About the United Nations’ new global LGBTI equality
standardsThe United Nations Human Rights Office has
launched a new set of global standards aimed at helping business
play a larger role in tackling discrimination against lesbian, gay,
bi, trans and intersex (LGBTI) people in the workplace and beyond.
The new standards, developed in partnership with the Institute for
Human Rights and Business, are the product of a year-long process
of consultation, including regional meetings with business leaders
and representatives of LGBTI communities in Asia, Africa, Europe
and the Americas. The standards were launched by UN High
Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein in New York in
September 2017 and have since been presented at events in Mumbai,
Paris, London, Hong Kong and Melbourne, with further events planned
in Davos, Nairobi, Sao Paulo and Nairobi during the first half of
2018. More than 40 major corporations have so far announced their
support for the standards – including Accenture, Adidas, AirBNB,
Aviva, Santander Group, Baker McKenzie, Ben & Jerry, BNP
Paribas, Burberry, The Coca-Cola Company, Deutsche Bank, Deutsche
Post DHL Group, Dow Chemicals, EDF, EY, Fidelity International, The
Gap, Godrej Industries, Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes, Google,
Hermes Investment Management, HP, IKEA Group, Intel, The Lalit
Hotels, MAS Holdings, Mastercard, Microsoft, McKinsey, New York
Life, Oath, Orange, Ralph Lauren Corp, RELX Group, Royal Bank of
Scotland, SAP, Simmons & Simmons, Spotify, Twitter, Trillium
