Category: Supply Chain

Organizations can further gender equality through supplier relations by working with or supporting diverse suppliers and guaranteeing women’s rights in suppliers’ workplaces.

Does your organization work with external stakeholders to support diversity and inclusion in the supply chain (e.g. local governments, supplier diversity networks, human rights organizations, industry associations, universities and incubators)?

Does your organization support the development of women’s businesses and diverse enterprises (e.g. capacity building, training)?

How does your organization encourage direct/prime suppliers to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment within their workplaces?

How does your organization encourage direct/prime suppliers to purchase more from women’s business enterprises?

How does your organization ensure that direct/prime suppliers and prospective suppliers align with its supplier diversity, gender equality, and human and labour rights efforts?

How does your organization ensure that its supply chain is diverse (e.g. women, ethnicity, LGBTQ2+, diverse abilities)?

Has your organization evaluated its supply chain in regard to supplier diversity, gender equality, and human and labour rights performance?

Does your organization have a written enterprise-wide supplier diversity and inclusion policy that specifically addresses supplier workers’ rights in order to advance gender equality?

Does your organization have an enterprise-wide supplier diversity and inclusion policy that specifically addresses gender-responsive procurement?

To what extent is supply chain diversity and inclusion a priority for your organization’s gender equality efforts?
