Abstract:
While most studies of corporate social responsibility (CSR) have been conducted at the firm level, there is a nascent interest in research at the individual, particularly the employee, level of analysis. However, the extant literature has revealed that the effect of CSR on organizational attractiveness (OA) remains under-examined. Previous studies have overlooked the complex nature of the decisions that potential employees make about job choices while addressing the isolated effect of CSR on OA. Addressing this research gap, the present study aims to answer the question: What will be the result if CSR is compared to other factors when choosing an employer? Therefore, this study provides meaningful insights for both researchers and practitioners not only by analyzing how CSR affects the OA but also by showing the importance of CSR relative to other factors, such as remuneration, location, and intellectual challenge.

Abstract:
Prior evidence that firm’s investment behavior is positively affected by its corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure, as one of the key CSR areas of the company, leaves unaddressed whether all kinds of disclosure have the same effect. Drawing on stakeholder theory, this study analyzes the issue in a more exhaustive way. A cross-sectional logistic regression model is used to test the hypothesized association, and the results imply that firms’ high (low)-quality disclosure regarding their engagement in CSR activities increases their chances of being from the investment-efficient (inefficient) group. The obtained results conclude that CSR reporting activity is not beneficial for companies unless a meaningful disclosure of sustainability information is made. Our results are robust to using alternative proxies for CSR disclosure quality. This study contributes to the scarce evidence on CSR reporting in Pakistan and provides a useful method for assessing quality of CSR reports.

Abstract:
The approach to corporate social responsibility (CSR) has changed through years from the philanthropy to the self-regulatory and to the present multi-stakeholder approach. In India, the CSR mandate has been looked and projected as a game changer and is expected to revolutionise CSR beyond the lens of defensive CSR, promotional CSR and charitable CSR to the next-level paradigm of strategic CSR. It is in this context an attempt has been made to discuss the CSR approach of public- and private-sector companies in India. The article makes an analysis of the CSR vision and mission statements, expenditure, areas of interventions and initiatives, CSR policy framework and reporting among public and private companies in India. The article is based on the secondary data for a period of four years (2011–2015) and gives a representative view of the companies making difference to the Indian society at large. The article intends to answer whether revolutionising CSR as a mandate is an attempt in the right direction.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to examine the performance of corporate social responsibility (CSR) portfolio at the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses the CSR portfolio of public companies that was selected in a three-step procedure. In total, 23 companies were selected and formed a CSR portfolio that is traded on the Warsaw Stock Exchange under the Respect Index. The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is used to compare returns of CSR companies with respect to the market. The performance of this portfolio is measured in the period from 2010 to 2012. Findings This paper finds that the CSR portfolio measured under the Respect Index outperformed market in all time periods from 2010 to 2012. In addition, in 2010, the CSR portfolio exceptionally outperformed the market by almost 80 per cent. In 2011, even though the market was down, the CSR portfolio reported lesser losses: −0.93 vs −1.73 per cent. In the following year, the market regained and the CSR portfolio again outperformed the market by 14 per cent. This paper also finds that the CSR portfolio is more sensitive to systematic risk than to specific risk. In addition, the CSR securities move according to the market trend. Research limitations/implications The limitation of this paper is attributed to a cause-and-effect relationship. In other words, it did not answer whether adopting CSR led to higher profitability or profitability reflected an awareness of market conditions that favored the adoption of CSR. The future research should focus on this issue and indicate whether investors prioritize CSR over profits or vice versa. Practical implications The results indicate that investments in CSR portfolio companies bring abnormal returns to investors. In addition, the CSR portfolio may resist market downturns and even bring exceptional profits to investors. Originality/value This study explains the CSR portfolio’s performance on the Warsaw Stock Exchange by using the CAPM.

Abstract:
The disconnect between the lofty aspirations of firms claiming Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and their shortcomings in practice have caused some observers to question its usefulness. The fallout from events like the Rana Plaza catastrophe has highlighted some of these shortcomings—namely, deficiencies in how multinational enterprises (MNEs) transact with suppliers in developing countries. Specifically, our paper aims to investigate whether or not MNEs behave hypocritically by examining the alignment of CSR to business practices in MNE affiliates in developing countries. To answer this question, we apply standard ordinary least squares (OLS) techniques to data for over 1000 MNEs that claim to have a CSR ethos. We find that CSR-active enterprises report significantly higher worker wages, ceteris paribus. Local African suppliers benefit from CSR through knowledge transfer, but only when MNEs make tangible investments in supplier development.

Abstract:
Purpose This study examines the effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) capabilities on corporate association and, consequently, customer orientation and price premium, which are key to competitive advantage. Design/methodology/approach This study adapts survey instrument targeting employees of a Korean firm. A total of 168 usable questionnaires were collected from seven Korean firms that were conducting CSR and public relations (PR) activities. Findings CSR and PR capability induce positive CSR and corporate ability (CA) associations, which improve customer orientation and increase price premium. The results of our empirical study indicate that a company should consider both CSR and PR capabilities to enhance its employees’ positive attitude to its CSR activities and CA association. Research limitations/implications This study has undertaken a holistic examination of important role of CSR and PR capability and their outcomes, namely customer orientation and price premium. Originality/value Understanding of CSR capabilities in terms of competitive advantage is imperative to the establishment of strategic CSR initiatives. This study attempts to answer whether corporate capabilities for social responsiveness improve a company’s competitive advantage.

Abstract:
Are corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives providing the societal good that they promise? After decades of CSR studies, we do not have an answer. In this review, we analyze progression of the CSR literature toward assessing the performance of CSR initiatives, identify factors that have limited the literature’s progress, and suggest a new approach to the study of CSR that can overcome these limits. We begin with comprehensive bibliometric mapping illustrating that although social impact has infrequently been its explicit focus, the CSR literature has measured outcomes other than firm performance, especially in the current decade. Thereafter, we conduct a more fine-grained analysis of recent CSR studies. Adapting a logic model framework, we show that even the most highly cited studies have stopped short of assessing social impact, often measuring CSR activities rather than impacts and focusing on benefits to specific stakeholders rather than to wider society. In combination, our analyses suggest that assessment of the performance of CSR initiatives has been driven by the availability of large, public secondary data sources. However, creating more such databases and turning to “big data” analyses are inadequate solutions. Drawing from the impact evaluation literature of development economics, we argue that the CSR field should reconceive itself as a science of design in which researchers formulate CSR initiatives that seek to achieve specific social and environmental objectives. In accordance with this pursuit, CSR researchers should move toward “small data” research designs, which will enable studies to better determine causation rather than just identify correlation.

Abstract:
Background: In recent years, the importance of school as a stake-holder in CSR activities is gaining recognition. Companies channel financial and human resources into developing schools. School Development and Monitoring Committee (SDMC) plays an important part in the management of Primary schools in Karnataka and as such should have a role in CSR activities. Purpose: This exploratory study attempted to answer the following questions- (1) How aware are SDMC members of CSR and its role in schools (2) what is their perception of CSR in their schools? (3) Do rural and urban SDMC members differ in their perception of CSR Methods: Sample consisted of SDMC members from 50 rural and 50 urban Government run primary schools in Bangalore Educational districts. 100 SDMC members, one from each school, were interviewed using a semi structured information schedule developed for this study. Results: Management is not very clear about the nature of CSR support . However, 75% of them perceive CSR as beneficial to their schools. Rural subjects have a more favourable perception of CSR impact and they differ significantly from urban counterparts in rating ‘ how CSR has benefited students’ (t = 2.052).Conclusions: SDMC members do not clearly distinguish between support provided under CSR and support received from other sources. Overall, CSR is seen as beneficial to school by supplementing government support and helping the management. Rural schools seem to benefit more from CSR support. Though SDMC is supposed to monitor the developmental activities of the school, they are not often consulted by companies about the requirements for the school. Involving SDMC in planning, executing and monitoring would enhance the efficacy of CSR programmes.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to answer the call for CSR communication research to develop and substantiate outcomes that may better explain CSR communication strategies and practices. The paper takes the research a step further, exploring the role of legitimacy in CSR communication research. Design/methodology/approach A literature collection methodology, combined with directed content analysis, was used to identify central themes in the literature. Findings The following categories of studies were identified: perception, impact and promotion studies; image and reputation studies; performance studies; and conceptual/rhetorical studies. Addressed from a legitimacy perspective, the study found that the most important types of legitimizing communicative practices articulated in the four types of studies were related to: seeking knowledge about stakeholders through perception, impact and promotion activities; monitoring and controlling the environment through image and reputation activities; creating stakeholder value through collaboration and engagement; and persuading and convincing stakeholders through rhetorics, CSR models and concepts. The study also found that practices and activities related to perceiving stakeholders’ expectations, needs and requirements are assumed to be most effective for corporations aiming at building or maintaining legitimacy. Originality/value The key contribution of the paper lies in exploring how corporate legitimacy is anticipated and extrapolated in the CSR communication literature, including which pinpointed CSR communication strategies and practices are assumed to be more effective than others in bridging stakeholders’ perceptions of corporations’ social and environmental actions. Until date, no reviews exist of the role of legitimacy in CSR communication research.

Abstract:
It has been a decade since Indonesia implemented its first mandatory CSR requirement. The time is ripe for the discussion: can Indonesia confidently say that it has saved Indonesia by making companies publicly answer for many social issues? Can it successfully bring social and economic justice by continuously enforcing this radical progressivism or utilitarianism? To begin to address these questions, this paper first examines Indonesia's unique features that strengthen CSR as a legal obligation and analyzes the current regulatory frame of CSR. Then, it discusses whether these laws and regulations have actually worked as a practical tool to encourage and enforce companies to perform CSR activities. This research concludes that company law can save Indonesia despite its failure so far due to a number of problems in and out of positive law. It suggests how it can specifically structure the CSR regulations and seeks attention to the more structural reform from the longer-term goal of developing a national mechanism.

Idag räcker det inte med att ett företag genererar vinst och har överlägsna produkter, nu tas även ansvarstagande och företagets värderingar in i bedömningen.

Detta är en fallstudie på Stadium AB med frågeställningen:

Vilka är de primära drivkrafterna bakom Stadium AB:s CSR arbete idag och vad blir konsekvenserna av CSR arbetet ur ett varumärkesstärkande perspektiv?

Syftet var att få mer förståelse för begreppet CSR och drivkrafterna bakom. Detta gör vi genom att med en kvantitativ metod studera hur Stadium AB arbetar med CSR.

Efter jämförelser mellan empiri och teori framkom att Stadium AB:s primära drivkrafter är företagets anställda och kunder. Konsekvenserna av detta är bland annat att ägarna, de anställda och kunderna får en enhetlig bild av vad företaget står för, något som är mycket viktigt och i förlängningen stärker företagets varumärke.

Abstract:

Bakgrund: Företagens sociala ansvar, eller CSR, är ett begrepp som används allt oftare i det svenska näringslivet. Men vad är egentligen företagens sociala ansvar?

Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att genom en empirisk belysning av företagens sociala ansvar bidra till kunskapen om det sociala ansvaret ur ett företagsetiskt perspektiv.

Genomförande: Vi har genomfört tretton intervjuer med representanter för svenska företag och deras intressenter.

Slutsatser: Vi har funnit en i många avseenden homogen syn bland svenska företag samt deras intressenter på vad företagens sociala ansvar är. Denna syn kännetecknas främst av att det sociala ansvaret är knutet till företagens verksamhet samt till de intressenter som företaget interagerar med. Det främsta skälet till att ta ett socialt ansvar är att företag är beroende av goda relationer med de för dem viktigaste intressenterna. Företagens (sociala) ansvar är enligt oss att bedriva en sund verksamhet med ett långsiktigt och ekonomiskt hållbart perspektiv, samt att i denna process eftersträva och söka efter möjligheter att kombinera ekonomiskt framgång med allmännytta. Detta ansvar uppfylls genom att företagsledare tar ett ansvar för att åstadkomma moraliska strukturer i företag, som främjar det allmänna bästa och möjliggör ett individuellt ansvarstagande.

Abstract:

Background: Ambiguity and confusion of ideas within the area of social responsibility have led to that companies not really know how to work with these types of questions. One way for companies to deal with their social responsibility is to affiliate to an initiative that exists and through this show their standpoint. One of these is Globalt Ansvar, a Swedish governmental initiative that is based on Global Compact’s principles and the guidelines of OECD. What does it mean for the companies when showing their point of view? Is this a way to gain legitimacy?

Purpose: The purpose with the thesis is to judge if organisations’ work with Corporate Social Responsibility gains more legitimacy by affiliating to Globalt Ansvar.

Research method: A survey made through telephone interviews with representatives from all of the fifteen Swedish companies which today are affiliated to Globalt Ansvar.

Conclusions: In order to give the affiliated companies more legitimacy, Globalt Ansvar has to be a legitimate initiative. Today Globalt Ansvar has problems with their legitimacy due to external and internal communication. The internal communication falls short while the companies have a lack of conceptual ideas. In addition the internal conversations do not create incentives sufficient enough to create a common platform. Globalt Ansvar hasn’t led to any concrete activities and the roles in the cooperation are indistinct. The external communication is lacking because of the failure in packaging the brand [Globalt Ansvar] in a successful way but also due to poor marketing.

Abstract:
Företags vilja att hållbarhetsredovisa har ökat markant under 2010-talet. I och med den ökade tillämpningen av hållbarhetsredovisning skapas även behov av ett ramverk. Det ramverk som idag är det mest framträdande inom hållbarhetsredovisning har skapats av organisationen Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). GRIs mål är att frivillig hållbarhetsredovisning ska vara lika tillförlitlig och jämförbar som finansiella rapporter.Hållbarhetsbegreppet kan delas in i tre områden vilka är social, ekonomisk och miljömässig. Resultat från tidigare forskning visar att det råder stora brister inom hållbarhetsredovisning eftersom redovisningen är frivillig och det därmed inte föreligger några lagstadgade krav. Tidigare forskning visar även att socialt ansvar är den del i hållbarhetsredovisningen som är mest bristfällig. Den här studien kommer således att studera Sveriges tre största dagligvaruföretags redovisning av socialt ansvar i jämförelse av år 2008 och år 2013.Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur dagligvaruföretagen redovisar socialt ansvar enligt GRIs riktlinjer samt vilka kvalitetsförändringar som skett i dagligvaruföretagens redovisning av socialt ansvar genom att jämföra år 2008 och år 2013. För att se hur företagen redovisar enligt GRIs riktlinjer studeras dagligvaruföretagens redovisningar utifrån GRIs resultatindikatorer inom socialt ansvar. Vidare studeras dagligvaruföretagens redovisningar från år 2008 och år 2013 för att jämföra redovisningarna och på så vis se vilka kvalitetsförändringar som företagens redovisning visar. Kvalitetsförändringarna studeras utifrån kvalitetsprinciperna neutralitet, precision och jämförbarhet.Studiens resultat visar att dagligvaruföretagen redovisar fler av GRIs indikatorer inom socialt ansvar år 2013 jämfört med år 2008. Trots att fler indikatorer redovisas brister dagligvaruföretagen fortfarande i att redovisa en stor del av indikatorerna. Kvalitetsprinciperna neutralitet, precision och jämförbarhet kan inte anses vara uppfyllda varken år 2008 eller år 2013 trots att redovisning av socialt ansvar för svenska dagligvaruföretag förbättrats i kvalitet mellan åren.Hållbarhetsredovisning av socialt ansvar har förbättrats mellan år 2008 och år 2013 då fler indikatorer redovisas. Dock behöver de studerade företagen fortsätta utveckla redovisningen av socialt ansvar för att mer fullständigt tillämpa GRIs indikatorer. Det är inte endast tillämpningen av indikatorerna som dagligvaruföretagen behöver förbättra inom redovisningen, de behöver även förbättra kvaliteten i redovisningen. Genom att skapa hållbarhetsredovisningar med neutralitet, precision och jämförbarhet kan kvaliteten av rapporterna höjas.

Abstract:

Företag har först och främst ekonomiska intressen att ta hänsyn till. Ett mål är att skapa acceptabel vinst för sina ägare och ett delmål är att hålla nere sina kostnader. Rekryteringskostnaderna anses ha blivit en relativt dyr kostnadspost. Ett sätt att reducera denna är att företaget söker personal som inte bara är kompetent utan som även kan omfattas av företagets målsättning och etik. På så sätt växer en lojalitet fram mellan dessa och ökar sannolikheten att personal stannar längre hos företaget. Den anställdes trivselfaktor ökar och han får bättre förutsättningar för att känna att han tillsammans med företaget kan bidra till förändring av samhället och världen.

Vänds fokus från företagets intresseperspektiv till den arbetssökandes, kan man fråga sig om det finns ett intresse hos arbetssökande personer, i detta fall våra studenter i intervjuundersökningen, att utöver lön, ta hänsyn till företagets/organisationens policy

beträffande CSR- relaterade faktorer.

Abstract:

Klimat- och miljöhänsyn, arbetsförhållanden, att de mänskliga rättigheterna efterlevs och välgörenhet är frågor som på senare år blivit alltmer omdiskuterade. Detta har skapat en ökad medvetenhet och kunskap och högre krav ställs på företag att agera ansvarsfullt inom dessa områden. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) är ett begrepp som innebär att på ett aktivt sätt ta samhällsansvar, utöver vad lagar och regler säger.

Enligt den svenska regeringen är Sverige ett land som har en stark internationell trovärdighet när det gäller att ta detta samhällsansvar och många svenska företag har ett välutvecklat CSR-arbete. I Sverige finns även många framstående och duktiga modedesigners, vars tillverkning sällan sker i Sverige, utan mycket av produktionen utkontrakteras. De senaste åren har alltfler företag börjat se sig om efter externa producenter i andra länder, i ett försök att etablera sig på andra marknader och få billigare produktion. Då ett företag använder sig av en utomstående producent vill man att denne ska uppfylla de krav man har för att produkten ska överensstämma med de visioner man har som företag. Det kan då ibland vara svårt att kontrollera när man befinner sig långt ifrån varandra geografiskt och kräver därför mycket resurser och planering av företaget. En viktig del i ett aktivt CSR-arbete är att sköta inköp inom ramen för detta, då man har en skyldighet att säkerställa sig själv om att de varor som produceras och säljs representerar de värderingar företaget står för.

Vårt syfte är därför att genom en fallstudie beskriva hur företagen Weekday Brands AB och Odd Molly International AB arbetar med CSR och om detta arbete påverkar deras inköpsprocesser av kläder. För att söka svar på detta har ett antal olika intervjuer genomförts, vars resultat har analyserats utifrån teoretiska modeller om CSR och inköpsprocesser. Våra slutsatser är att båda företagen använder CSR som en intern samt extern strategi. De försöker i sitt arbete efterleva sina uppförandekoder och CSR-arbete genom avtal med alla sina producenter. Därtill genomför de kontroller via egna kontrollanter och personliga besök på tillverkningsfabrikerna. Det innebär att de lägger ner ett arbete vid inköpsprocessen i att säkerställa sig om att deras produkter svarar på deras krav utifrån CSR.

Abstract:
Sveriges fackförbund har sedan 2000-talet förlorat medlemmar och allmänhetens syn på fackförbund är att de har förlegade arbetssätt. Problematiken för fackförbunden är att de tvingas förändra sitt arbetssätt för att vinna tillbaka medlemmar. Förändringsprocessen har inneburit att nya strategier kunnat användas för att stärka förbundens roll mot näringslivet och arbetsmarknaden. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) är ett verktyg som fackförbund kan använda för att förändra sig och stärka sin legitimitet i samhället. Frågor som ämnar bli besvarade i denna uppsats är vilka faktorer som påverkar CSR-strategier inom fackförbund och hur CSR som strategi används i dessa organisationer. I denna kvalitativa studie undersöktes fyra svenska fackförbund för att svara på dessa frågor och resultatet jämfördes sedan med ett teoretiskt ramverk för att härleda slutsatser. Studiens slutsats visar att externa och interna faktorer påverkar fackförbunds CSR-strategier i olika utsträckningar. En ytterligare slutsats är att tyngdpunkten i hur de använder CSR-strategier bygger på att minska sin klimatpåverkan och främja alla människors lika värde på arbetsmarknaden. Avslutningsvis bidrar denna studie med ökade insikter i hur CSR-strategier inom fackförbund påverkar det svenska näringslivet och arbetsmarknaden.

Abstract:
The cognitive revolution reinstated the mind as a central unit of empirical and theoretical analysis and inspired the cognitive science of religion (CSR), which attempted to explain symbolic-cultural systems in terms of innate cognitive constraints. There is an ongoing debate on whether cognition is simply individual mental representations or broader interactions of minds in bodies negotiating natural and social environments. CSR produced significant foundational hypotheses during the 1990s, but it is an open question whether these hypotheses constitute ‘explanations.’ There are at present five significant new directions in CSR, namely neuropsychology, experimental science of religion, field experiments, history, and big data. CSR is an ever-expanding field of inquiry drawing on the methodologies of the natural and social sciences and using new methods and technologies to answer age-old questions about consciousness, culture, social behavior, and religion. In this sense it is crucial to the comparative study of religion.

Abstract:
This chapter is about the mandatory disclosure of income tax as required by international financial reporting standards (IFRS) and standards issued by Portuguese regulatory bodies. The chapter also elaborates the most relevant disclosures from the perspective of corporate social responsibility (CSR). Furthermore, it highlights the most influential CSR reporting standards to answer the question that whether these standards adequately address the issue of income tax payment as a factor of CSR. Finally, it also reviews the international and Portuguese theoretical and empirical academic research available about income taxes and related subjects, such as disclosures, corporate tax as a CSR matter, and tax aggressiveness of corporations. Future research may be conducted geographical reporting of income tax expense and its relationship with the effective tax rate (ETR) and other independent variables.

Abstract:
Everyone talks about corporate social responsibility when there is discussion on the profitability issue. As the society is the major stakeholder in any corporate, it is natural duty of the concerned company to full fill its responsibility towards the society. There are many issues which can be included in the corporate social responsibility but the question arise is that what will happen if a company don't focus on sustainability. The obvious answer is that without sustainability, the fulfilment of certain types of social responsibility activities by the company will not provide the true advantage of the CSR to the society. It can be put in this way that at the cost of long term benefits of the society, the short term benefits are provided if sustainability is sacrificed. The future generation will cry like anything for the loss we are making today. This paper is aimed to discuss the Corporate Sustainability Reporting through case study of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS).

Abstract:
In recent years, Nirex has been engaged in a fundamental review of its values, objectives and behaviours. The significant shift to emerge from this review has been a commitment to being a responsible organisation. On both ethical and strategic grounds, Nirex believes it will only have a useful role to play in future radioactive waste management debates if it can show that it is a socially responsive and accountable organisation. Important commitments have already been made, and policies introduced, including a Transparency Policy, and an Environmental Policy. Over the same period, there has been a growing discourse and engagement in the UK with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). A wealth of organisations and consultants have emerged offering thought leadership and support in this area, some of whom have approached Nirex offering services. The challenge Nirex faces, however, is to understand what relevance and implications the CSR debate has for its work, and its wider commitment to responsibility. Should Nirex have a CSR strategy and produce a CSR report, or does ‘responsibility’ mean something different to Nirex? What would engaging in CSR mean — is there a danger that being responsible would become a stand-alone activity in the organisation, rather than a ‘mainstreamed’ commitment? If Nirex were to produce a CSR report, who would it be aimed at, and how would it fit alongside other corporate communications? In order to help answer these questions, and to develop a clear position and strategy, Nirex asked the Future Foundation to help facilitate input from consultants and other practitioners who have relevant experience. This paper will describe what was undertaken, the results and some thoughts on what this means for the future.
