The data of variables are collected from annual reports of the sample companies. In the analysis part, the descriptive statistics are used to check the level of human resource disclosures. After that, Pearson’s correlation matrix is applied for checking the correlation between board variables and HRDI. At last, to check the effect of board structure on HRDI, the one-way least square dummy variable (LSDV) regression model is applied. The outcomes of descriptive statistics show that the mean percentage of HRDI is 43.86. It lies on moderate side. Further, the outcomes of one-way LSDV regression model show that there is significant positive effect of board size, board meeting and audit committee on HRDI. In contrast, there is insignificant but positive effect of board independence, CEO duality on the level of human resource disclosure of the sample companies. Overall, it can be said that the human resource disclosure practice of the Indian companies is fairly good.
