Responsible business conduct - MNE Guidelines

The OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises on Responsible Business Conduct are recognised as a leading international standard for how companies and investors should address their impacts on people, the planet and society. They apply to businesses and investors of all sectors, sizes and ownership structures, and cover all key sustainability issues – from climate change to technology, from anti-corruption to human rights and labour standards.

Governments that sign up to these Guidelines must set up a National Contact Point (NCP) to promote responsible business conduct and handle complaints relating to the conduct of specific companies operating in or from their countries.

TUAC works closely with the OECD, NCPs and national unions to improve and better implement the Guidelines, ensure effective NCP bodies and processes, and encourage unions to engage with both to achieve decent work. TUAC helps unions to prepare and submit issues about company conduct that does not meet OECD standards, and to work with the NCPs to pursue these issues and agree a satisfactory solution.
