Solution

I'm sorry, but as of my last update in October 2021, I don't have information about the OECD Guidelines on Multinational Enterprises 2023 update. The OECD Guidelines are recommendations by governments to multinational enterprises operating in or from adhering countries. They provide non-binding principles and standards for responsible business conduct in a global context consistent with applicable laws and internationally recognized standards.

As of the 2011 update, the guidelines have a chapter on the environment which states that enterprises should contribute to economic, environmental and social progress with a view to achieving sustainable development. This includes establishing and maintaining a system of environmental management, providing public and relevant stakeholders with adequate and timely information on the potential environment, health and safety impacts of the activities of the enterprise, and continually seeking to improve corporate environmental performance.

The guidelines also have a chapter on due diligence which states that enterprises should carry out risk-based due diligence, for example by incorporating it into their enterprise risk management systems, to identify, prevent and mitigate actual and potential adverse impacts.

The concept of due diligence in the OECD Guidelines is similar to that in the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP). Both require businesses to identify, prevent, mitigate and account for how they address their impacts on the environment and human rights.

For the most recent and accurate information, please refer to the official OECD website.
