The right to just and favourable conditions of work (Art. 7) 2016, para. 70
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- States parties should take measures, including legislative measures, to clarify that their nationals, as well as enterprises domiciled in their territory and/or jurisdiction, are required to respect the right to just and favourable conditions of work throughout their operations extraterritorially. This responsibility is particularly important in States with advanced labour law systems, as home-country enterprises can help to improve standards for working conditions in host countries. Similarly, in conflict and post-conflict situations, States parties can have an important regulatory and enforcement role and support individuals and enterprises in identifying, preventing and mitigating risks to just and favourable conditions of work through their operations. States parties should introduce appropriate measures to ensure that non-State actors domiciled in the State party are accountable for violations of the right to just and favourable conditions of work extraterritorially and that victims have access to remedy. States parties should also provide guidance to employers and enterprises on how to respect the right extraterritorially.
