Respect for the rule of law

Xinyuan LU September 24, 2025

ISO 26000 emphasizes that respect for the rule of law is a fundamental principle of social responsibility. Organizations should comply with all applicable laws and regulations, and take steps to ensure that they are aware of their legal obligations.

In the context of global operations, this principle becomes even more critical. Organizations must navigate complex legal landscapes while maintaining a commitment to ethical behavior and accountability.

The ISO 26000 Stakeholders Global Network (SGN) continues to advocate for the integration of these principles into organizational strategy and daily operations.
