Guidance on Social Responsibility

ISO 26000:2010 Guidance on Social Responsibility

ISO 26000:2010 is a guideline (not certifiable) that helps organisations operate ethically and sustainably, addressing seven principles (accountability, transparency, ethical behaviour, stakeholder interests, rule of law, human rights, international norms) and six core subjects (human rights, labour, environment, fair operating practices, consumer issues, community involvement).
