The stocktaking report provides an account of achievements, developments and challenges observed since 2011, the most recent update of the Guidelines. The report has been developed by the OECD Secretariat based on inputs from National Contact Points for Responsible Business Conduct; inputs from the Institutional Stakeholders BIAC, TUAC and OECD Watch; consultations with OECD Committees; and inputs received during a public consultation. The observations emerging from the stocktaking exercise can be summarised under three broad criteria focusing on the fitness of the Guidelines in relation to issues, implementation and institutions.
