Are Global Compact participants accused of “violations” of any of the ten principles expelled from the initiative?
Excluding a participant from the initiative is a last resort option. The focus of the Global Compact and its Integrity Measures are to promote continuous improvement. If a company repeatedly fails to communicate on progress, misuses the name or logo of the Global Compact, or refuses to engage in dialogue under the Integrity Measures, it can be listed as non-communicating and removed from the Global Compact website. In serious cases, a company can be de-listed. For more information, see the Integrity Measures and Communication on Progress .
