Press Releases

Recent decades have brought increased awareness and concern for human rights and social compliance, placing greater accountability on organisations to ensure that harmful practices do not go unnoticed and that human rights are respected within their organisation and across the supply chain.

To support normative human rights frameworks, Alyne and KPMG have teamed up, combining industry-leading expertise on human rights and social compliance with next-generation technology to help our customers comply with the requirements defined in international standards and regulations.

With the detailed Human Rights Controls created by KPMG management consulting professionals, combined with Alyne’s regulatory and risk management technology, organisations can easily identify gaps in the human rights / social compliance context and build greater maturity with help of experts in a strategic and efficient manner. This partnership aims to streamline support functions for organisations, enabling simplified compliance and allowing them to manage their human rights related risk and compliance processes, effectively.

KPMG’S Human Rights Risk Assessments (HRRA)

Through the Alyne platform, ESG (environmental and social governance), sustainability and compliance managers can have full access to detailed and actionable Controls and Human Rights Risk Assessments (HRRA). These 113 Controls cover the most important labour related human rights topics:

• Elimination of forced and compulsory labour.
• Abolition of child labour.
• Anti-discrimination in employment and occupation.
• Just and favourable working conditions.
• Freedom of association and collective bargaining.
  

Alyne’s Digitalised Risk Management and Compliance

Through this collaboration, organisations benefit from KPMG’s consulting services and expertly crafted Controls on human rights, facilitated by Alyne’s technology, which enables the process through:

• Greater transparency: The ability to quickly and efficiently assess your supply chain through digital and scalable Human Rights Risk Assessments.
• Performing a detailed Gap Analysis to analyse focus areas.
• Detailed risk analytics on maturity levels, assessment deviations, impact level, probability and the likes of expected financial loss.
• Deep and intuitive risk reporting which allows organisations to address their risks accurately and in a timely manner.
• Simplified and digitalised compliance to human-rights specific requirements defined in international standards and regulations.

Furthermore, within Alyne, management friendly reports can be generated with an interconnected tree of risks, illustrating the root causes of elevated threats and the potential downstream effects if not mitigated. To aid in mitigation, each risk can be expanded to show which of the organisation’s controls and assessment answers deviated from policy recommendations.

Future Focus Infotech will be offering a unique proposition to their customer base by leveraging Alyne’s extensive Risk Control Library to proactively tackle today’s nature of cyberattacks that are constantly challenging or defeating the key investments made on security infrastructure.

Organisations today are grappling with more cyber security challenges and risk exposures than ever before. The key point often overlooked is having robust organisational risk controls in the first place. Controls that can automatically identify and map risks based on the nature of your business. A unified system that can continuously quantify and map out maximum risks, thus making an organisation risk aware always, providing an edge of adequate time to mitigate or defend from security adversities that can happen without warning.

While most organisations view regulatory and compliance certifications as short term or periodic necessities, it overlooks the fact that the standards were born and designed out of a necessity to keep organisations safer – continually.

Most existing risk-control measures revolve around a spreadsheet based solution that needs to factor 1000s of variables and risk bucket as tickets to allow for some traceability. The efficiency is diminished and the cost to operate all of these solutions adds to significant amounts that accrue over the years.

By representing Alyne, FFI is committed to helping organisations unify and manage risk identification, quantification, control, compliance and continuous risk coverage through Alyne’s ever-growing platform of:

1. 1137+ Controls,
2. 1017+ interlinked risks associated with Control Statements,
