BS 76000 Human Resource. Valuing People

BS 76000 helps organizations of all sizes recognize the actual and potential value of their people and help develop a new and effective working partnership for sustainable success. This principles-based management system standard is built around the premise that people are an organization’s biggest asset and should be treated as such – so the organization gets the most out of its staff and employees get the most out of their working life.

BS 76000 helps organizations of all sizes recognize the actual and potential value of their people and help develop a new and effective working partnership for sustainable success. Central principles are:

  • The interests of staff and other stakeholders are integral to the best interests of an organization;
  • The organization is part of wider society and has a responsibility to operate in a fair and socially responsible manner;
  • Commitment to valuing people should come from the most senior leaders of an organization ;
  • The people who work for an organization have rights over and above those in law or regulation, and these rights and legal protections are respected by the organization;
  • Each principle is of equal importance.
