National Contact Point

The guidelines state that every OECD member state is required to set up a National Contact Point (NCP). The NCPs have two main purposes:

• Familiarising enterprises with the guidelines and promoting their application (providing information
• Handling questions and allegations from organisations and private citizens regarding violations of the guidelines by enterprises.

The tasks of the NCPs also include:

• Collecting experiences with applying the guidelines (practical examples)
• Consulting with representatives from employer organisations, employee organisations and civil society organisations (stakeholders)
• Handling questions from other NCPs and governments of non-OECD member states
• Preparing for national and international discussions on the OECD guidelines
• Submitting an annual report to the OECD Investment Committee
