Abstract

Who is Corporate? Is it the Board of Directors or the employees? Corporate Social Responsibility to be a success has to be a Collective Social Responsibility as well. If CSR is perceived as something confined to the Board Rooms, its effectiveness may be seriously hampered. Because CSR is not just about spending money or showing on records that money has been spent. It is a great opportunity for each and every person of an organization to reach to the society and give it back a bit of what we always take from it. With the change in The Companies Act, 2013 vide section 135, a paradigm shift has been brought by the Government in the area of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Companies meeting certain criteria are now compulsorily required to allocate and spend 2% of the Net Profits on CSR. This article tries to explore the CSR domain and its relationship with the HR department. What is the role of HR department in making CSR a real success is the research question studied in this research? Isn’t some kind of fundamental attitudinal change on the part of the employees a must for ensuring genuine CSR is an area that has been probed.
