Implementing the Guiding Principles
In 2011, Ministers from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries adopted updated Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.

 These include recommendations addressing human rights which draw upon the Protect, Respect, Remedy Framework and Guiding Principles.

  • There is a link to the OECD Guidelines in Resources.

  • The European Union endorsed the UN Guiding Principles in 2011 and a number of member states have produced national action plans.

  • These two examples demonstrate that the Guiding Principles influence the policies and expectations of international organisations and national governments and will therefore become increasingly significant to businesses in all sectors.

  • There is a link in Resources, under the heading 'Human Rights and Business' to a wide range of documents relating to the Protect, Respect, Remedy Framework.
