As a signatory working to resolve social issues alongside salons and hairstylists based on the Milbon Basic Guideline for Sustainability, we contribute to creating a sustainable society by adhering to 10 UNGC principles related to human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption
What is the Global Compact?
The Global Compact is a voluntary initiative whereby signatory companies and organizations act as upstanding members of society by demonstrating responsible and creative leadership, participating in the creation of a global framework for achieving sustainable growth. This ongoing initiative was first proposed by Kofi Annan, then Secretary-General of the United Nations, at the World Economic Forum (Davos Forum) in 1999. It consists of ten principles across four areas: of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption.
