Switzerland – 3rd – Security sector

2.2 Updating the measures contained in the NAP 2020–2023

Measure 5: Multi-stakeholder initiatives on business and human rights

…Switzerland plays an active role in supporting various multi-stakeholder initiatives, including the cocoa, gold, textiles and coffee sectors, and in implementing the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights and the International Code of Conduct for Private Security Service Providers. These efforts, which supplement the new legislative measures, seek to maximise the positive impact of companies on the ground while promoting social and environmental sustainability.

The 2024-27 National Action Plan is supplemental to the 2020-23 NAP. The 2020-2023 NAP explicitly addresses this issue.
