Abstract

This chapter delves into the intricate interplay between human rights, corporate social responsibility, and global sustainability, focusing on the nexus of disability rights and inclusive business practices. While examining international agreements and Indian domestic laws, the research uncovers challenges in implementing regulations that mandate fair treatment and prejudice eradication for individuals with disabilities. In parallel, it scrutinizes the complexities of inclusive business practices, a cornerstone of CSR, emphasizing the need for substantial overhauls in corporate culture and policies. It also explores gaps in political theory, analyzes capabilities theories and social mobilization, and advocates for a strategic approach aligning CSR with inclusive practices for authentic inclusivity and equitable employment opportunities. This chapter further analyzes the international and domestic legal frameworks pertaining to disability rights and argues for a more comprehensive legal framework in alignment with CSR policies.
