  • The prohibition of child labor
  • The prohibition of forced or coerced labor
  • Diversity, equity and inclusion
  • Compensation and benefits
  • Workplace health and safety
  • Freedom of association and collective bargaining
  • A workplace free from harassment and discrimination
  • Workplace security

Denbury respects the human, cultural and legal rights of all individuals and communities, and promotes the goals and principles of the United Nation’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the United Nation’s Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and the International Labor Organization’s Declaration of Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. This commitment extends to the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people, including Indigenous people, regardless of race, color, gender, identity or expression, national origin, religion, sexual orientation or income level.

We expect our suppliers, contractors and other business partners to likewise respect human rights and remediate human rights impacts in their respective activities. Denbury’s Human Rights Policy requires our employees to complete training on and ensure compliance therewith.
