Self-assessment of human rights compliance supports organisations in voluntarily verifying whether their activities are in line with human rights rules and standards.  A tailored self-assessment helps organisations to adapt these rules and standards to their specific characteristics.  

The results of self-evaluation should not be used to try to certify compliance, but to identify gaps and adapt activities to international human rights rules and standards. Self-assessment tools are intended to be used as way of preparing for monitoring the activities of an organisation or its partners. 

Self-assessments are also a way to communicate a policy commitment on respect for human rights to stakeholders and partners. This way, organisations can exert leverage in their value chains and promote a compliance culture adapted to the specific characteristics of the organisation.
