TY - CHAP A1 - Kocher, Eva T1 - Codes of Conduct and Framework Agreements on Social Minimum Standards - Private Regulation? T2 - Responisble Business: Self-Governance and Law in Transnational Economic Transaction N2 - Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is currently a widely discussed topic. Many corporations and employer associations have tackled the subject and commited themselves to CSR policies. In addition, since the creation of the 'Global Compact' there has been increased knowledge of what CSR comprises. Many German companies (that is, those with German headquarters) claim to have always practised CSR. However, doubts remain as to how CSR can be used in the specific context of German industrial relations that rely on collective bargaining between employee representation at the shop-floor level (Work Councils) as well as at the branch level (trade unions).
