Protect, Respect, and Remedy

A Framework for Business and Human Rights

By John Ruggie

 
 

April 7, 2008

SUMMARY: This report presents a conceptual and policy framework to anchor the business and human rights debate, and to help guide all relevant actors. The framework comprises three core principles: the state duty to protect against human rights abuses by third parties, including business; the corporate responsibility to respect human rights; and the need for more effective access to remedies. The three principles form a complementary whole in that each supports the others in achieving sustainable progress.
