ILO C167 (1988)
IN EFFECTNOT SCOREDSafety and Health in Construction Convention
ILO Convention 167 sets minimum safety and health requirements for all temporary and permanent construction sites: site preparation, machinery, PPE, fall prevention, excavation, scaffolding, and accident reporting. Ratified by 35 member states; referenced as the baseline by development banks (World Bank, AfDB, ADB) in project compliance requirements.

Requires transparent public procurement, auditable project records, beneficial ownership disclosure, and anti-bribery controls for all public works. Development banks (World Bank, IMF, AfDB) use UNCAC compliance as a precondition for infrastructure lending. Sanctions for proven diversion of project funds include blacklisting from future lending.
ILO C131 (1970)
IN EFFECTNOT SCOREDMinimum Wage Fixing Convention
ILO Convention 131 requires member states to establish wage-fixing machinery covering all employed groups.

ISO 14040:2006 describes the principles and framework for life cycle assessment (LCA): definition of the goal and scope, the life cycle inventory analysis (LCI) phase, the life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) phase, the life cycle interpretation phase, reporting and critical review, limitations, the relationship between the LCA phases, and conditions for use of value choices and optional elements. It covers LCA and LCI studies. It does NOT describe the LCA technique in detail and does NOT specify methodologies for the individual phases — a study claiming a method on 14040's authority is claiming something 14040 declines to give. Edition 2, published 2006-07, 20 pages, ISO/TC 207/SC 5, ICS 13.020.10 / 13.020.60. Stage 90.93 — confirmed on review in 2022, so this version remains current.

Requirements for a PARTIAL CFP are also specified. It addresses only a single impact category: climate change. Carbon offsetting and the communication of CFP information are explicitly OUTSIDE its scope — a standard that quantifies a number is not a standard that licenses a label built on it. It assesses no social or economic aspect and no other environmental impact. Edition 1, published 2018-08, 46 pages, ISO/TC 207/SC 7, ICS 13.020.40. Supersedes the withdrawn ISO/TS 14067:2013.

Certification requires documented evidence across: site selection and ecology, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere (including on-site renewables), materials and resources (recycled content, regional materials, construction waste diversion), indoor environmental quality, and innovation credits. LEED for Neighborhood Development (LEED ND) specifically covers community-scale projects — food markets, mixed-use centres, public plazas, and community energy installations. Increasingly required as a condition of funding by World Bank, IFC, USAID, EU structural funds, and green bond issuers for any new public building.
