Employees are vital stakeholders in a company’s day-to-day business, and one of its valuable assets. Concerning Corporate Social Responsibility, employees’ perspectives and attitudes are even more important. Most investigations see organizational commitment as a consequence of the social exchange among an organization and the workforce. Corporate Social Responsibility alludes to social duties that organizations have toward stakeholders’ group during the section of directing routine business. We contend, based on social exchange and social identity points of view, that Corporate Social Responsibility exercises will impact the dedication of workers and this connection will be encouraged by representative employment fulfillment. Doable inductions of this model have been recognized. Other than offering an extension for additional exploration in the zone of the Indian pharmaceutical industry in conditions, for example, worldwide pandemic COVID-19, it is critical to cultivating submitted representatives as a wellspring of a continued upper hand.
