Requirements
Joining as a subsidiary is straightforward. You will only be required to produce a letter of commitment from your highest-level executive or re-use your parent company’s letter of commitment (if it is recent) and complete a basic online application form. In the form, please tick that you are a subsidiary. Information about applying can be found here.
Participants of the UN Global Compact are required to report with a Communication on Progress. If your parent company is reporting on behalf of the group, the subsidiary is not required to report its own CoP.
