The role of CSR in the protection of the employees

Abstract

Workers are classically the more vulnerable party in employment relationships. Counterbalancing this is one of the tasks of labour law. However, there are also situations where the legal framework alone is not sufficient. In order to maintain or increase the level of protection, it is necessary to have, in addition to legal rules, specific ethical self-regulation by employers. One form of this is CSR. In our opinion, CSR should not only have an impact on persons outside the organisation, but also on employees.
