OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises on Responsible Business Conduct
The OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises on Responsible Business Conduct
are recommendations addressed by governments to multinational enterprises. They aim
to encourage positive contributions enterprises can make to economic, environmental
and social progress, and to minimise adverse impacts on matters covered by the Guidelines
that may be associated with an enterprise’s operations, products and services. The
Guidelines cover all key areas of business responsibility, including human rights,
labour rights, environment, bribery, consumer interests, disclosure, science and technology,
competition, and taxation. The 2023 edition of the Guidelines provides updated recommendations
for responsible business conduct across key areas, such as climate change, biodiversity,
technology, business integrity and supply chain due diligence, as well as updated
implementation procedures for the National Contact Points for Responsible Business
Conduct.
