The Guatemalan Sugar Industry presented its Policy of Respect for Human Rights that reaffirms the Sugar Industry\u2019s commitment to observe and fulfill the fundamental rights enunciated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and in the International Labor Organization -ILO- Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Policy of Respect for Human Rights complements and frames the policies and regulations that govern the Guatemalan Sugar Industry since 2000, which, based on national legislation, adapt sugarcane activities for a responsible operation focused on social, economic and environmental sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The objective of this Policy is\u00a0to contribute to the State of Guatemala\u00a0in respect of Human Rights<\/strong>, promoting the training and strengthening of capacities in Human Rights for employees, as well as in the supply chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, ensure compliance with the existing guild policies for the prevention, mitigation, and resolution of impacts on the community. In the same way, encourage dialogue for action on human rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are companies committed to the economic growth and social development of Guatemalans, our contribution to the country is manifested every day.\u00a0For us, the human being is the center of our work<\/strong>\u201c, said Alfredo Vila, president of the Guatemalan Sugar Association -Asazgua-.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

During this process,\u00a0there was technical support from the International Labor Organization<\/strong>, through CEGESTI, an institution that facilitated the formulation workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWe have not found such a sophisticated, structured and well-run process from the private sector and business leaders anywhere in the world and that is why we classify it as unprecedented, which happens with great pleasure from Guatemala,\u201d said Randall Arias, of the ILO Sub-regional Office in San Jos\u00e9, Costa Rica, regarding the policy creation process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
