Our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct supports the principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and stresses our commitment to human rights. We consider where and how we operate to avoid human trafficking and modern slavery in our direct operations and our supply chain.
As a signatory of the United Nations Global Compact, we are committed to respecting human rights across our value chain including in our workforce. This commitment is reflected in our Code which has been informed by the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.
Sustainability objectives which reflect our focus on our unique contributions to society, as well as our other sustainability objectives align to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in order to do our part to advance this ambitious global agenda by 2030.
Recognising that across RELX we have products, services, tools and events that advance the UN’s 17 SDGs, we created the free RELX SDG Resource Centre in 2017 to advance awareness, knowledge and implementation of the SDGs. Since 2017, we have made over 2,700 journal articles and book chapters free to access via the RELX SDG Resource Centre.
