Public Consultation: Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Business Conduct

The OECD is currently developing a general Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Business Conduct to provide practical support to companies on the implementation of the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. The Due Diligence Guidance contains plain language explanations of the due diligence recommendations and associated provisions in the OECD Guidelines and can be used by companies in any sector of the economy.

The Dutch National Contact Point OECD-Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises will submit comments to the Public Consultation before 9 February 2017 and asks the Stakeholders to do the same.

The Guidance draws from the due diligence approaches contained in the sector-specific guidance already developed by the OECD.
