In recent years, the rapid process of globalisation has triggered a political debate on international working and production standards, and the need for supranational structures and regulation. The adoption of corporate codes of conduct and international framework agreements (IFAs) is a reflection of the increasing global outreach and influence of multinational companies. This report analyses the impact of both these types of initiative on corporate practice and industrial relations.
