Is blue washing a threat to your company?
很多公司都意识到承担社会的责任是有益于底线。一些公司甚至签约了“全球紧凑型” – the United Nations 10 principles on good business behaviour. Now companies are realizing that signing up for the Global Compact isn’t enough. One must do something actively to create a responsible supply chain and business.
全球契约是一家出色的框架，该公司可以使其负责任的工作可见。公司虽然必须确保它没有成为“舒适毯”的东西，而且是公司可以被指责的风险“蓝洗“（全局紧凑的徽标是蓝色的）。因此，全球紧凑型原则很重要，转换为真正的变化。
全球紧凑型is often criticised because for some companies it is just a“positive marketing image without substance”.批评者还说，允许公司在没有核实或随访的内容的情况下提交年度报告，这使得很难认真对待框架。此外，没有准入的标准。
Can Global Compact be simplified?
Is Global Compact making it harder for themselves when it comes to communicating the message? Could they attract more businesses by requiring the companies to formulate their principles themselves – though based on the 4 main themes? Should Global Compact keep a team of process consultants available that could help the companies develop the principles? Is it even necessary at all - companies can take responsibility for society, with or without the Global Compact as a starting point.
Create real change
这对社会责任承担责任是至关重要的，这是社会，在社会和经济上都来自真正的愿望。这将使公司在竞争力，劳动力吸引力，储蓄方面的终线和降低风险方面受益。但它往往超过这一点。世界的资源稀缺，更多的组织正在进行更广泛的观点，因此他们必须为此分享一些责任，包括他们如何管理供应链。
Organisations need to take on board these issues - with or without the Global Compact. But those who use the Compact simply to boast about their principles, without embracing genuine change, run a real risk of being exposed publicly as indulging in “Blue Washing”.
