Measurement Theme Performance

There has been a general upward trend (on average) since 2017, but companies are scoring fewer points on Theme B (Embedding Respect and Human Rights Due Diligence) than other themes, as in 2017 (although the differences between theme scores are quite small). Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton were consistently in the top 3 companies per Theme while the ‘zero scoring’ companies were more varied.
