Abstract
The core interest of the authors of this paper is analyses of the application of The United Nations
Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights in North Macedonia. In 2011, The United
Nations presented to the public the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. Although
the non-binding normative text intends to serve as a "global standard of practices". The document
itself is based on three pillars: (i) the State duty to protect human rights, (ii) the corporate
responsibility to respect human rights and (iii) the need for greater access to an effective remedy
for business-related abuse victims. Relevant national legislation and practices related to the current
situation of the promotion and application of the principles promoted in The UN Guiding
Principles on Business and Human Rights shall be examined. Finally, the authors will give their
reflections and recommendations on how to accelerate the application of The UN Guiding
Principles on Business and Human Rights in the national legislation and practice.
