This guide is designed to help organizations consider how to implement fair recognition
practices. It provides information on key issues to be considered, including terminology and why
it matters, as well as how fair recognition may be defined and the benefits it brings.
It also provides best practice ideas to be explored, rather than step-by-step guidance on
developing processes, particularly since Organizations in Solidarity (OiS) members make up a
diverse set of organizations, of different sizes, with access to different resources, and based in
different countries. Therefore, any practical processes will have to be developed by each of the
organizations, bearing in mind their own structure and resources. It is recommended that
organizations work with human resources professionals and take employment law into account
as relevant to the country in which they are based.
