India is the first country in the world to mandate corporate social responsibility (CSR). The Government of India implemented new CSR guidelines requiring companies to spend 2 per cent of their net profit on social development. The current research intends to identify the role of human resource (HR) in institutionalizing CSR and to identify the association between employee perception towards CSR and the role of HR. The research results prove that it is apt that Indian organizations are high on CSR activities and that even employees are undertaking such activities but the formal policies and procedures are not formulated by HR department to involve the employees in CSR activities. HR needs to align the CSR and HR policies, so that the employees, who are the biggest stakeholders, get involved in internal as well as external CSR activities.

Role Of The Government

Water companies have attracted minimal attention in the corporate social responsibility literature. This chapter examines conceptual issues regarding the applicability and relevance of CSR principles in a public service industry. It aims to bridge the gap that exists between the CSR and water service discourses by offering some initial ideas on the CSR issues of particular relevance to this industry, with emphasis on developing countries. We suggest re-examination of relationships with poor communities, a different understanding of the role of the government, and the adoption of industry-wide, as opposed to company-specific, social responsibility schemes.
