The
Government has a role in promoting continuous improvement in
the business contribution to the three pillars - economic, social
and environmental - of sustainable development.
The base level of responsible behaviour for any organisation
is legal compliance and the Government has a role to play in
setting standards in areas such as environmental protection,
health & safety and employment rights.
The Government can also provide a
policy and institutional framework that stimulates companies
to raise their performance beyond minimum legal standards. Our
approach is to encourage and incentivise the adoption of Corporate
Social Responsibility, through best practice guidance, and,
where appropriate, intelligent regulation and fiscal incentives. You
can find our last report here.
