Yes, another voluntary standard on CSR. It’s published by the China International Contractors Association for China’s international construction contractors who operate aboard on 28 Sep. If you look at the standard (Full doc here in Chinese: http://wenku.baidu.com/view/e91e57d9ce2f0066f5332218.html ), it’s actually a combination of UN Global Compact and ISO26000. 7 core subjects include quality and safety, employee development, rights of property owners, supply chain management, fair competition, environmental protection, and community development. The most interesting part is fair competition of course if you know how the construction contracting works in China. My view is that it’s better than having nothing. Chinese contractors are having poor reputation in terms of using local labour force and community development in the international community. The government recognises it must be very serious now.
