(3e) The principles underpinning corporate social responsibility (CSR), which are fully recognised at international level, whether by the OECD, the ILO or the United Nations, concern the responsible behaviour expected of undertakings, and presuppose, first of all, compliance with the legislation in force, in particular in the areas of employment, labour relations, human rights, the environment, consumer interests and transparency vis-à-vis consumers, the fight against corruption and taxation. Moreover the specific situation and capabilities of SMES have to be taken into consideration.

(3f) Although OECD countries are guided by the Arrangement, non- OECD countries and, in particular, emerging countries are not Members of the OECD and hence do not take part in the Arrangement with the result that this could lead to an unfair advantage for exporters of these countries These countries should therefore be encouraged to join the OECD and participate in the Arrangement.
