Abstract

2011 UNGPs, and business “responsibility to respect” human rights regardless of domestic law increases applicability of international HR standards
Regulators can, and should, make more use of HR in their work:
1. informing discretionary decisions and actions;
2. supporting business ‘responsibility to respect’;
3. defending regulatory initiatives against litigation.
Requires increased familiarity with detail of HR, beyond the ‘foreign office’.
