Abstract

The United Nations enacted the 17 Sustainable Development Goals in 2015 and the social impact of modern business has become particularly important, but unfortunately several companies face the problem of modern slavery, this paper provides a specific analysis of Mondelz International Inc's business practices and combines 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16 and 17 SDGs. The 17D thinking tool is used to help companies analyse responsible business be-haviour in a specific business context; a judgement is made on whether companies should eliminate modern slavery from a utilitarian and Kantian perspective respectively. The re-sults found that companies that approach modern slavery from a utilitarian perspective are in violation of the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals. And utilitarianism has be-come a justification for external sophistry by multinational corporations such as Mondelez.
