Abstract

Considering the significant and substantial impact of micro and small enterprises on the national economy, this paper aims to demonstrate how integrity programs serve as strategic tools for the promotion of human rights, competitiveness, institutional trust, and sustainable development within the Brazilian business environment. Employing a deductive method, this study adopts a qualitative approach and is based on bibliographic and documentary review. Divided into three sections, it begins with a brief analysis of the supranational nature of human rights and integrity as a reflection of the constitutionalization of Business Law. Subsequently, it discusses elements capable of providing parameters for understanding the current landscape of micro and small enterprises in Brazil, as well as potential challenges in the implementation of integrity programs. Finally, this research contributes to the understanding that integrity programs can be implemented in any organization, provided their specific characteristics are respected, and thus can serve as important instruments for the protection of human rights.
