Abstract

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) advocates for the rights and fair treatment of labour. Good CSR practices encompasses elimination of discrimination and abuse at work place. Employees are a form of stakeholder demand for CSR. The chapter reviews labour management issues in Marange Diamond Mines. The mines were centre for illegal mining, human rights abuses and unfair labour practices. There is need of labour laws to protect workers and fight the abuse of employee rights. Workers need knowledge and awareness of their rights so that they can demand CSR. Firms that satisfy employee demand for CSR benefit from increased worker loyalty, morale, and productivity. Strong labour institutions are required to ensure that employee codes, practices and laws are not violated by employers.
