Social Responsibility
Ethics and corporate social responsibility (CSR) are closely related, as being socially responsible means going beyond legal and economic obligations to do the right things by acting in ways that benefit society. CSR is an umbrella term for exploring the responsibilities of business and its role in society. CSR has been in the news constantly for the past several years.
What is corporate social responsibility, and what do managers need to know about it? The concept is based on the belief that companies have some responsibilities to society beyond that of making profits for the shareholders. CSR is about doing good and doing no harm and relationships with stakeholders. So corporate social responsibility is the concept that organizations have a duty to all societal stakeholders to operate i...

Ethics and corporate social responsibility (CSR) are closely related, as being socially responsible means going beyond legal and economic obligations to do the right things by acting in ways that benefit society. CSR is an umbrella term for exploring the responsibilities of business and its role in society. CSR has been in the news constantly for the past several years.
What is corporate social responsibility, and what do managers need to know about it? The concept is based on the belief that companies have some responsibilities to society beyond that of making profits for the shareholders. CSR is about doing good and doing no harm and relationships with stakeholders. So corporate social responsibility is the concept that organizations have a duty to all societal stakeholders to operate in a manner that takes each of their needs into account. In other words, companies need to look at their effects on society and all corporate stakeholders, not just shareholders.
They must provide employees with safe working conditions and with adequate pay and benefits. Companies must provide safe products and services to customers. For society, the company should improve the quality of life, or at least not destroy the environment. The company must compete fairly with competitors and work with suppliers in a cooperative manner. It must abide by the laws and regulations of government. At the same time, the company must provide shareholders with a reasonable profit.

The idea that businesses have an obligation to foster social betterment has been a much-debated topic in the past 50 years. The notion that corporate executives should balance the interests of all stakeholders, the communities in which they operated, and society at large began to blossom in the 1960's.
Social responsibility refers to a company’s duty to operate in an honorable manner, provide good working conditions for employees, encourage workforce diversity, be a good steward of the environment, and actively work to better the quality of life in the local communities in which it operates and in society at large.
The essence of socially responsible business behavior is that a company should balance strategic actions to benefit shareholders against the duty to be a good corporate citizen. The underlying thesis is that company managers should display a social conscience in operating the business and specifically consider how management decisions and company actions affect the well-being of employees, local communities, the environment, and society at large.
A company’s corporate social responsibility strategy is defined by the specific combination of socially beneficial activities it opts to support with its contributions of time, money, and other resources.
Companies that take social responsibility seriously can improve their business reputations and operational efficiency while also reducing their risk exposure and encouraging loyalty and innovation.
