Eni vs OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises


The duly proven “attacks” that Eni unfairly promoted against my honor and reputation (see Doc. 01 and Doc. 02) in 2010 (judicial process) and 2017 (ENI’s AGM), are condemned by the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights” (Article 12).

Eni says it “follows” and “accepts” the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises on Responsible Business Conduct

But what guides this "international commitment" of the Italian oil giant?:

IV. Human Rights 

States have the duty to protect human rights. Enterprises should, within the framework of internationally recognised human rights, the international human rights obligations of the countries in which they operate as well as relevant domestic laws and regulations:

1. Respect human rights, which means they should avoid infringing on the human rights of others and should address adverse human rights impacts with which they are involved.

2. Within the context of their own activities, avoid causing or contributing to adverse human rights impacts and address such impacts when they occur.

3. Seek ways to prevent or mitigate adverse human rights impacts that are directly linked to their business operations, products or services by a business relationship, even if they do not contribute to those impacts.

4. Have a publicly available policy commitment to respect human rights.

5. Carry out human rights due diligence as appropriate to their size, the nature and context of operations and the severity of the risks of adverse human rights impacts.

6. Provide for or co-operate through legitimate processes in the remediation of adverse human rights impacts where they identify that they have caused or contributed to these impacts.


Now, why does Eni, in my case, doesn’t fulfill this “international commitment”?
