Human Rights in the Extractive Industry
NWCRI and a coalition of shareholders have filed
shareholders resolutions with Chevron since 2004 requesting the Board to adopt a comprehensive, transparent and verifiable human rights policy. Chevron has business operations in more than 180 nations, many of which have consistently been noted by the U.S. Department of State as violating basic human rights. In spite of strong support from shareholders, Chevron has not adopted a human rights policy that ensures that it is not associated with human rights violations that pose reputation and liability risks to shareholder value.
