VOIT&#8217;s responsibility in the area of human rights focuses on topics and fields of action in which it can assert its influence as a commercial enterprise.\r\n\r\nIn this respect it complements the duties of states and sovereign institutions to protect human rights. Human rights are basic norms that serve to ensure the dignity and equality of all. They are universal, inalienable and indivisible rights to which every person is equally entitled.
