The human rights and managerial responsibility: A comparative analysis of theoretical studies

The issue of human rights and managerial responsibility in corporations and firms today is one of the most fundamental issues in law and economics. The purpose of this paper is to analyze theoretical studies related to this issue in different corporations and firms with special emphasis on those of developing countries, specifically in the countries of the Western Balkans. The inhumane and degrading treatment of employees in the Western Balkans is the subject of this paper. This research is based on the research of Buhmann (2018), Leka et al. (2019), and Osmani et al. (2022). The methodology of this paper is based on a systematic review of studies and researches, especially on the topic of human rights and managerial responsibility in corporations or firms in developing countries. It is relevant because this theme has never been elaborated on by other Kosovar authors. The results confirm that globalization and the great influence of multinational enterprises on the firms of all countries, especially those in developing countries, has raised many concerns for human rights, specifically the respect of employee rights, in the impact of businesses on employees. The conclusion presents theoretical inquiries about how the responsible management of a corporation affects the rights of employees.
