”Earth Summit 2001 should not try to re-invent the wheel when it comes to instruments to influence the behaviour of enterprises... Rather, it should encourage all parties, including many companies who are serious about their impact on the world, to make the OECD Guidelines work and to use all possibilities to generate useful global social dialogue and engagement, including the Global Compact.”
(Jim Baker, International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU), Belgium)
