The Human Rights Compliance Assessment (HRCA) is a diagnostic tool designed to help companies detect potential human rights violations caused by the effect of their operations on employees, local residents and all other stakeholders. The tool has been under development by the Human Rights & Business Programme at the Danish Institute for Human Rights (DIHR) since 1999, and is a joint venture between the Danish Institute for Human Rights, the Confederation of Danish Industries (DI), and the Danish Industrialization Fund for Developing Countries (IFU), with the support of the Danish government (DANIDA). The aim of this cooperation has been to develop a widely accessible resource tool to help companies deal with human rights issues relevant for their particular operations.
