Understanding the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs)
The Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) are also known as “Equality Means Business.” These principles are a collaborative effort between UN Women and the United Nations Global Compact. They offer companies a framework to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment. This framework applies to the workplace, marketplace, and community. Key focus areas include equal pay for equal work and gender-sensitive supply chains. Zero tolerance for sexual harassment is also a core principle.
