Diretrizes da OCDE para empresas multinacionais e o desafio da estruturação de relações de emprego transnacionais sustentáveis

The general objective of this article is to evaluate the challenges in structuring sustainable transnational employment relationships through an analysis of the OECD guidelines for multinational companies. This evaluation begins by questioning the challenges that arise from the interaction with these guidelines and their potential to effectively influence the structuring of sustainable transnational employment relations. The research employs a logical-deductive methodology, supported by documentary analysis of the OECD Guidelines and comparative analysis with specialized literature. The specific objectives of the research are as follows: Mapping the OECD Guidelines for multinational companies on responsible business conduct, emphasizing the dialogical elements with the ILO and the dichotomy between Soft Law and Hard Law; Analyzing the paradigms of sustainability and their relationship to labor; Evaluating, through comparative analysis, the contribution of the OECD Guidelines to the protection of labor law at a transnational level, particularly focusing on binding challenges. The research concludes that there is a difficulty in establishing a causal relationship between the OECD Guidelines and changes in the behavior of multinational companies regarding responsible business conduct and due diligence. However, the Guidelines have contributed to the establishment of global standards for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
