"It is undoubtedly necessary for governments in the OECD and beyond to respond to the unprecedented crisis of the Covid-19 pandemic with concrete policy solutions to help people cope and to return to some form of stability for the medium and long term. This is particularly true for the world of work as the impact of the crisis is being felt across the economy. Decisive actions must be taken to protect and secure the workplace, ensuring companies adopt the highest safety standards and observe authoritative international standards on freedom of association, social dialogue and inclusiveness. For international businesses dependent upon global supply chains, the prescient recommendations embedded within the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises offer a good starting point. "
