Private sector urged to go beyond one-off efforts in CSR activities for the disabled

KUALA LUMPUR: Corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities conducted by the private sector for people with disabilities should go further than just one-off donations, and be extended to providing fair employment to them, said Senator Bathmavathi Krishnan (pic).

"CSR should not be a one-off event or a one-off action. It should be a commitment where you offer sustainable opportunities. You help a person become economically independent by offering a job, or you could help them renovate their house to be more accessible," said Bathmavathi.
