R. Saner (2018), Investment Trends and OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises (The Guidelines) and the United Nations Guiding Principles (UNGPs)

The UNGPs and the OECD Guidelines are the two most authoritative guidance documents for implementation of Responsible Business Conduct. While the UNGPs focus on business and human rights, the OECD Guidelines go further and have a broader scope. In addition to human rights, the OECD Guidelines also cover employment and industrial relations, the environment, fighting corruption, consumer interests, science and technology, competition and taxation.
