Through dialogue and shareholder resolutions, the Corporate Governance Working Group challenges corporations to uphold ethical, social and financial standards in their operations and in their relations with shareholders and stakeholders. A corporation should:

• Have a Board of Directors that is independent, inclusive, and transparent in its representations, practices and accountability;
  
  
• Ensure that economic benefits are financially and socially equitable for all associates of the company; and
  
  
• Ensure that its implementation of policies and practices includes environmental, social and financial transparency.

To this end, the Group’s work will focus on the following key corporate structures:

• Boards of Directors,
  
  
• Nominating Committees, and
  
  
• Compensation Committees
