A/HRC/4/74 page 9 guidance on “flashpoint issues” such as indigenous people, dealing with armed groups, transparency, and security, and identifying legal standards and best practices. CSBP also includes a discussion of the limitations of ESIAs.12 34. The Human Rights & Business Project of the Danish Institute for Human Rights has produced two tools to help companies understand and manage their human rights impacts and risks: (a) country risk assessment reports that identify areas where companies are at risk of committing human rights violations, directly or indirectly, with recommendations; and (b) a comprehensive diagnostic tool that assesses to what degree a company’s policies, procedures, and practices comply with international human rights standards. Both tools are being used by several companies.13 35. The Humanist Committee on Human Rights (HOM), a Dutch NGO, has created a Human Rights Impact Assessment Resource Centre (HRIRC). The HRIRC is a platform for exchange of information and experience from sectors including business and development, catering to experts and non-experts alike. HOM is applying the aforementioned Danish Institute tools with companies and civil society organizations, and in November 2006 convened a conference on HRIAs.14 36. Additional tools are being developed by companies and industry groups: BHP Billiton is piloting a Human Rights Self Assessment toolkit; Anglo American has created a Socio-Economic Assessment Toolbox; Statoil is undertaking a human rights “concretization” project to define and embed the company’s human rights responsibilities; and the International Council on Mining & Metals Community Development Toolkit includes assessment tools. Additional examples of business tools and processes can be found in the Business Leaders Initiative on Human Rights’ second report: A Guide to Integrating Human Rights into Business Management.15 12 See International Alert, http://www.internationalalert.org/our_work/themes/extractive_industries.php. 13 See the Danish Institute for Human Rights, http://www.humanrightsbusiness.org/, where a short version of the compliance tool can be accessed for free. 14 See the Humanist Committee on Human Rights, http://www.hom.nl/, and the Human Rights Impact Assessment Resource Centre http://www.humanrightsimpact.org/. 15 See BHP Billiton, http://hsecreport.bhpbilliton.com/2005/repository/community/ourApproach/humanRights.asp; Anglo American, http://www.angloamerican.co.uk/corporateresponsibilty/socialresponsibilty/seat/; the International Council on Mining & Metals, http://www.icmm.com/library_pub_detail.php?rcd=183; and the Business Leaders Initiative on Human Rights, http://www.blihr.org.
