"Human rights are an interdisciplinary subject as well as a foundational aspect of the law. Their importance at the intersection of business and society is central, yet under-analysed. This book provides an accessible understanding of what human rights are, how business enterprises may impact human rights for better or for worse and how such impacts can or should be managed. Human Rights: A Key Idea for Business and Society equips readers interested in the relationship between business and society with the foundational knowledge for engaging in debates and operational tasks related to the roles and responsibilities of business with regard to human rights. It covers human rights aspects relevant to common management tasks, including supply chain management, human resource management, risk management, non-financial reporting, finance and stakeholder engagement. It covers opportunities and challenges related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and climate change mitigation. The book explains the foundations for human rights, social expectations and legal requirements on businesses to respect human rights, how business enterprises should identify and manage their human rights impacts. A concise introduction to a complex topic, this book is perfect reading for students of corporate social responsibility, business ethics and international business, as well as an illuminating guide for researchers, managers, civil society organisations, government officials and reflective practitioners"--
