Abstract :
The world has turned out to be a global village and standards such as the preservation of human rights are shared globally. The concept of corporate business and it’s devastating on humans must be juxtaposed against the concept of the right to development, international treaties and binding covenants between nation states. Companies have a powerful influence on all our lives. In the fold of the foremost abuses in recent decades, civil society has progressively called for Human rights standards to be held by companies. This article emphasises on contemporary debate i.e., in relation to the safeguarding of human rights and the responsibility of corporate personnel to carry the additional responsibility of human rights promotion, with special reference to health, social welfare and natural environment concerns, and the interface between corporate obligations and human rights owed to individuals, also focussing on regional human rights enforcement and monitoring structures, judicial decisions towards protecting the human rights with reference to case laws and the need of having human right standards which a corporate entity should adhere at the time of incorporation of a company.
