Description:The spotlight of global scrutiny has shone particularly brightly on corporations' adverse impacts on human rights in recent years.

It provides a straightforward, practical guide that can be easily read and interpreted by managers to help businesses navigate this complex area of legislation and soft law to fulfil their responsibilities. It explains the potential legal, financial and reputational implications for corporations and the steps they need to take to address them.The book tracks some of the major global developments in business and human rights, including the emergence of foreign, transnational, and international law and the proliferation of multi-stakeholder initiatives on business and human rights. Case studies from a range of sectors and industries - such as extractives, apparel, fast-moving consumer goods, electronics, and banking and finance - illustrate the enormous risks and opportunities human rights pose for business in practice.
