10 Years On

Assessing the effectiveness of the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises to responsible business conduct


In this report OECD Watch has analysed the implementation and effectiveness of the OECD Guidelines over the past ten years and made an analysis of cases filed by NGOs against corporations alleging violations of the OECD Guidelines.

The analysis from the cases makes one thing clear: If the OECD Guidelines are to be considered a credible, legitimate and enforceable standard to resolve corporate abuses and promote responsible business behaviour in the 21st century, the critical issues outlined in this OECD Watch report should be addressed.
