In its ruling, the UK NCP said: “The scale of alleged adverse human rights impact and the evidence of JCB products used in demolition of houses in OPT are sufficient reasons to carry out an assessment of actual and potential human rights risks and impacts, even if JCB believed that those human rights impacts cannot be linked to the company.” In particular, the NCP conclusively found that the alleged human rights impacts cannot be linked to JCB’s business operations or contractual arrangements. The process has now concluded.” We’re all about self-expression and let’s face it, your phone is always on display for everyone to see!

It added: “JCB’s response that as it has no control over its products once they have been sold to Comasco and that they are not responsible for the adverse human rights impact caused by their products does not reflect the spirit of the OECD guidelines on responsible business conduct.” The firm said it welcomed and would consider the NCP recommendation that JCB regularly conducts human rights due diligence and prepares a separate policy affirming its commitment to human rights. The report pointed out that since February 2020, JCB had been aware of the UN office of the high commissioner for human rights’ database, which has put JCB on the list of business enterprises involved in listed activities in the occupied Palestinian territories that may have “raised particular human rights impacts”.

JCB argued that Comasco was not the only supplier of JCB excavators and it did not have any direct management or financial control over the firm. The team behind Genuine Case Company include Jason Kemp and Roy Taylor, industry veterans of The Caudwell Group and Data Select. Developers of the original JCB Toughphone and more latterly founders of Our Perspective, the team has managed brands including Energizer Mobile and the Monqi Kids Smartphone. In 2020 Genuine Case Company was established, teaming up with Alcatel to provide cases and screen protection for their smartphone range. But the watchdog dismissed claims that JCB failed to use its leverage to persuade its exclusive Israeli distributor, Comasco, not to allow its equipment to be used to bulldoze homes. It said there was no conclusive evidence that the JCB equipment used in the bulldozing had been supplied by the distributor, or how JCB could influence the distributor.The director of Lawyers for Palestinian Human Rights, Tareq Shrourou, said: “JCB’s board of directors and senior management must consider the real-life repercussions of its noncompliance with core human rights provisions of the OECD guidelines. A 14-year-old Palestinian girl told Save the Children in a vivid quote: ‘My old home was a dream come true as I always dreamt of living in a house with my own bedroom. But this dream was shattered the day that the yellow bulldozers arrived. I see [those bulldozers] in my nightmares. I felt like all hope went down with my home.’” The Foreign Office, consulted by the UK NCP, has frequently said demolitions amount to a breach of international humanitarian law in all but the most exceptional of circumstances. The case marks an interesting test of the human rights duties of UK firms. It was brought by Lawyers for Palestinian Human Rights in December 2019 so has taken nearly two years to reach a judgment point. The lawyers claim they have a record of JCB products being involved in “at least 60 out of the 266 demolitions” in one year. The JCB brand is synonymous with hard wearing quality. A brand you can rely on. Working with JCB we have produced a range of cases that are both stylish and protective, well made and reasonably priced”, added Jason Kemp, Founder of Genuine Case Company. “We know from our research there is strong demand for the JCB mobile brand, given the heritage built up since 2007”. JCB said: “We are very pleased that the UK NCP has firmly rejected the various allegations made by the Lawyers for Palestinian Human Rights that JCB either contributes to, is responsible for, or is otherwise linked in any way to adverse human rights abuses in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, either directly or indirectly, and/or that JCB has failed to mitigate or prevent such adverse human rights impacts.
