Corporate Accountability
Omega calls on companies involved in the production and trade of law enforcement equipment to:
Cease and refrain from the manufacture, promotion, brokering or transfer of all equipment
with inherent effects likely to result in unwarranted injuries, torture or other ill-treatment.
Put in place robust due diligence mechanisms with the aim of assessing actual and potential
human rights impacts resulting from the production and/or trade of law enforcement
equipment, integrating and acting upon the findings, tracking responses, and communicating
how impacts are addressed.
Monitoring Bodies
Monitoring bodies tasked with visiting places of detention and/or monitoring the public use
of force should provide their members with sufficient training so they can record violations
and use terminology in an informed, accurate and consistent manner. This may include the
development of a standardised list of equipment and common abuses to look out for.
