CSR starting point for international entrepreneurship

Themes of general concern like child labour, environmental protection and human rights have become an intrinsic part of international enterprise. That is why the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) has drawn up guidelines for multinational enterprises. These recommendations for Corporate Social Responsibility explain how governments expect companies to behave.

The Dutch National Contact Point (NCP) supports businesses in putting the OECD guidelines into practice. Although compliance with the guidelines is voluntary, there is the option of submitting a well-founded report to the NCP if a company is not acting or investing in accordance with the OECD guidelines. The NCP investigates the report and mediates between the reporting parties and the company in question.
