The verification of the hypothesis and the realisation of the stated goal was made on the basis of a critical analysis of the source literature and the case study. Striving to achieve the research goal, the first part of the article presents the strategy of corporate social responsibility in innovative enterprises and the essence of sustainable human resources management and their linkage in an economic, social and environmental depiction. In the second part the case study was presented using primary research. The publication was completed with applications in which the hypothesis was confirmed.
