ODS 10 Reduced Inequalities

Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities
Reduce inequality within and among countries

Sustainable Development Goal 10 (SDG 10) aims to reduce inequality within and among countries. This goal is essential for creating a more just and inclusive world, promoting social and economic inclusion for all. At ISO, we are committed to supporting SDG 10 through our standards, which provide frameworks and solutions that promote equal opportunities, fair practices, and inclusive economic growth.

How ISO Standards Support SDG 10

ISO standards play a vital role in supporting SDG 10 by addressing key aspects of social and economic inclusion. Our standards help organizations implement fair practices, promote diversity and inclusion, and ensure equal access to opportunities. Here are some of the relevant standards:

• Provides guidance on how organizations can operate in a socially responsible way, including principles and practices related to human rights and fair operating practices.
• Helps organizations address discrimination and promote equal opportunities, contributing to the reduction of inequalities in the workplace and society.

ISO 30415: Human resource management — Diversity and inclusion

• Provides guidelines for organizations to create and promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
• Supports the development of inclusive work environments that value and leverage diversity, contributing to reduced inequalities and enhanced social inclusion.
