“…First, it reflects the extraordinarily strong personal focus of the Japanese management style at home and thus the influence of the national business system abroad (Ferner 1997). In other words, it is an international extension of the national business system that transfers central decision-making to the MNC (Ferner and Quintanilla 1998). At the same time, it reflects an inability to transfer control mechanisms that work at home abroad.…”

“…The HRM in MNEs stream has drawn on a fairly broad range of theoretical approaches including cultural theory (Beechler & Yang, 1994;Gill & Wong, 1998), institutional theory (Bjorkman & Lu, 2001), comparative capitalisms, specifically the national business systems approach (Ferner & Quintanilla, 1998), knowledge-and resource-based views (Kamoche, 1996), and resource dependency theory (Hannon, Huang, & Jaw, 1995;Rosenzweig & Nohria, 1994).…”

“…Las empresas están puestas, entonces, ante el doble problema de sacar adelante la consistencia política en el conglomerado transnacional (es decir, comprometer también a las gerencias de las sucursales con los objetivos empresariales generales) y, al mismo tiempo, de incorporarse a los contextos nacionales diversos, de acuerdo con las alianzas y obligaciones específicas de cada caso.

¿Regulación internacional del trabajo a partir de los autocompromisos de las empresas transnacionales? ResumenEl discurso de la responsabilidad social de las empresas ha alcanzado un lugar preponderante en la regulación de los derechos laborales fundamentales definidos por la OIT. El presente texto reflexiona sobre esta situación, cuestionando las posibilidades reales de la globalización de estándares sociales a partir de los compromisos de las empresas transnacionales. Finalmente, plantea la necesidad de conservar y reforzar los mecanismos de regulación interestatal que fundamentan su cumplimiento en la obligatoriedad legal. Palabras clave: Empresas transnacionales, Responsabilidad social, Empleo decente, Regulación laboral AbstractCurrently, the discourses about the social responsibilities of the companies have reached a predominant place in the regulation of fundamental labour rights defined by the ILO. This article intends to reflect on this matter, questioning the real possibilities of the globalization of social standards from the compromises of transnational companies. Finally, the author raises the need to preserve and reinforce the mechanisms of interstate regulation that support its compliance in obligatory legality.
