Guide to Instruments of Corporate Responsibility

The Guide to Instruments of Corporate Responsibility profiles 16 leading standards, codes, guidelines and principles of corporate responsibility. In addition to providing an overview of the purpose and operation of each instrument, the Guide draws on concrete examples to illustrate how institutional investors and labour pension funds have employed these instruments in promoting corporate responsibility in their equity holdings.

This first version of the Guide was created as part of the broader Pensions at Work University-Union Research Alliance project (www.pensionsatwork.ca). Any comments, corrections or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
