Abstract:
In recent decades, the study of corporate social responsibility (CSR) has become one of the most popular research topics. In the markets of China, CSR has also attracted much attention from either local corporations or multi-national business. They have contributed many efforts to put CSR into effect, which helps CSR to be more practical and influential. By reviewing existing literature, this article mainly focuses on the environmental problems caused by lack of corporate social responsibility in China, which has led to the following research on CSR performance in China and customer view of CSR. The conditions of practicing CSR in China are researched first, and the attitudes of people towards CSR is tested empirically by a questionnaire using quantitative and qualitative research methods. Ultimately, the valid results collected were analyzed in detail along with a few suggestions. This article may help identify some surrounding problems of CSR and advance CSR practice slightly.

Abstract:
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a western concept that is penetrating Middle Eastern countries, and the UAE is the most appropriate region to offer insights into CSR because other Middle Eastern countries are not adopting the concept quite as quickly as the UAE. One indication of CSR in UAE is its transparent firms. This paper explores the current stage of CSR implementation in Arab countries, with special attention given to the UAE. An in-depth study was conducted to explore CSR implementation among local managers. Primary data from 198 questionnaires and case studies were analyzed to obtain valuable insights into the current state of CSR in the UAE. Key concepts are highlighted regarding the definition and practice of CSR in the UAE. Secondary data from both western and eastern cultures were also analyzed to examine the extent of adoption and adaptation of CSR and corporate philanthropy from multiple perspectives. Findings suggest all organizations, both local and multinational, must consider environmental and stakeholder interests in order to become global. Some confusion appears to exist between the concept of philanthropy and CSR. Some CSR highlighted by firms includes following regulations effectively and efficiently, adopting environmentally friendly business processes, organizing seminars, and creating awareness of the concept among peers. Although CSR is maturing in the Middle East, UAE firms need to improve CSR to compete with the practices that have become the CSR standard in western countries. In the last few years, governments and local organizations have strictly enforced business ethics and environmental regulations to support the growth of CSR in the country.

Abstract:
This research builds on the halo effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) literature in marketing to provide insight into the positive effect of CSR in a service encounter. Using a company’s green practices as CSR, this research examines how customers’ perceptions of CSR might spill over into their evaluations of the company and behavioral intentions in a service recovery context. The results, from 418 participants of the scenario-based role-playing experiment, indicate that CSR and service recovery have a significant effect on customer satisfaction, trust, word-of-mouth recommendations, and repeat patronage intentions in a casual-dining restaurant setting. Also, an interaction effect suggests that the CSR effect is more pronounced in a positive service recovery compared to a negative service recovery. The findings of this research provide researchers and practitioners with a better understanding of CSR and the positive influence it has on customer responses in a service encounter.

Abstract:
Due to the huge social and environmental issues faced by the world during the last couple of decades the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has taken front stage in the business world by becoming the key element of sustainable competitive advantage that benefits the company, society, and environment The purpose of this paper is to analyze whether the concept of CSR take as a tool only for maximizing the shareholders’ wealth by the investors (principals) as well as managers (agents) of the company by analyzing the two prominent CSR related scandals happened in the auto industry. It uses the agency theory model to analyze these cases and understand whether this model is overshadowing the stakeholder model of CSR concept. The preliminary studies carried out by comparing CSR reported by these two companies and the facts, effects, and reactions to the emission scandals indicate that although firms indicate that they follow a stakeholder model for their CSR initiatives and reports based on it, in reality, they follow agency model and CSR appears to do not really matter. This study also implies that manager needs to have a proper strategy that is followed and reported along with proper monitoring and control measure for a successful implementation of CSR. Due to many complexities, this it is too early to generalize ‘CSR does not matter ' view either to the entire corporate world nor the auto industry. Therefore, future studies are encouraged to include more companies in the auto industry and expand it to other industries as well.

In Slovakia the topic of socially responsible business has been little reviewed and described, both theoretically and practically. The article highlights the differences in the definition and characteristics of Corporate social responsibility (CSR) as published by several domestic and foreign authors. Not less significant is the added value of a practical design of the CSR implementation model for forest management, as well as its measurement, evaluation and reporting tools.

Abstract:
This paper develops the theory of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the food industry. The effects of CSR on the food industry are captured. First, we argue that CSR reduces the profits of a CSR firm under monopoly. Second, under complete information, regulation does not improve social welfare. We find that both active price regulation and active quality regulation reduce a monopolist’s profits, consumer surplus and social welfare. Finally, under incomplete information, the monopolist exaggerates quality as much as possible. With quality regulation, CSR reduces exaggerated quality in the food industry.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to examine corporate social responsibility (CSR) and corporate bankruptcy. Specifically, the authors ask the following research questions: Does CSR play a role in determining the likelihood of bankruptcy? Does CSR explain the difference in the probability of that firm eventually reorganizing and emerging from bankruptcy? Design/methodology/approach The authors address these questions by testing three CSR theories using a sample of 78 firms that filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy during the period 2007 to 2014 along with a matched sample of firms that did not. Findings Overall, the findings indicate that stronger CSR firms are less likely to become bankrupt relative to weaker CSR firms, all else being equal. This result is in line with the stakeholder theory of CSR. However, results do not support the conjecture that CSR matters when it comes to bankruptcy emergence. While CSR seems to influence whether a company experiences bankruptcy in the first place, having strong CSR does not seem to help a firm once it has filed for Chapter 11. Research limitations/implications This paper extends the existing CSR literature but looks at CSR not from the angel of financial “success” but rather from financial “failure”. Practical implications The results could potentially help academics and practitioners alike in seeking understanding and reason behind CSR involvement and bankruptcy avoidance and success. Originality/value This is the first paper to test whether CSR plays a role in bankruptcy. The authors use a recent sample of firms with CSR scores that experienced a bankruptcy and a matched sample of CSR-scored firms that did not experience bankruptcy.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the proposition that organizational policies and actions gain more legitimacy when they proactively improve (rather than reactively defend) their corporate social responsibility (CSR) standing by meeting challenges discursively mounted by competitors, watchdog activists, and governmental officials. Design/methodology/approach The paper reviews literature, including social capital, to consider CSR as both a reactionary and proactionary construct that guides how organizations defend and publicize their corporate social performance (CSP). The paper examines four premises relevant to the discursive (contentious and collaborative) approach to formulating and implementing CSR norms. The case of fracking (hydraulic fracturing) in the USA provides text for exploring these premises, especially the advantages of a proactionary strategy. Findings This paper concludes that CSR expectations of industry performance rest on threshold legitimacy standards that not only withstand but also are improved by discursive challenge. Research limitations/implications The case study offers limited support for the findings; more cases need to be examined to determine whether the findings are robust. Practical implications This paper, based on theory and research, proposes a strategic management and communication approach to social responsibility based on proaction. Social implications CSR communication is most constructive to a fully functioning social that generates social capital by proactive engagement rather than reactive challenges of stakeholder CSR expectations. Originality/value Discussion of CSR and CSP as employing profit for the good of society, based on discussions of legitimacy and social capital, strengthens CSR as strategic management and communication options. Such research clarifies how evaluative expectations of CSR are a legitimacy threshold as well as basis for reputational enhancement.

Abstract:
The aim of the article is to identify the analogy between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and science social responsibility (SSR) on the basis of scientific research. Five research questions were formulated regarding trends in research in these two areas. Data for analyzes were obtained from the global bibliographic database Scopus and related to scientific articles from 1937 to 2019. The main analogies were identified. Scientific research in both areas began in the same period and is carried out mainly in social and management sciences. However, discrepancies have also been identified. Research on CSR has developed far more than SSR, which is still at an early stage of development. Research on CSR is conducted in leading countries in the scientific and academic arena, and SSR rather in countries entering it. CSR has knowledge sharing platforms in the form of reputable, profiled journals, while SSR research is published in journals of lower reputation and with general rather than strictly SSR profiles. Research in the field of CSR is detailed and more often cited, while those related to SSR are general and less frequently cited. After all, research from both areas seems to be promising and worth further development.

Subject areaCorporate social responsibility, sustainability and business ethics.Study level/applicabilityThis case has been designed for undergraduate students, with two target audiences. The first is business and management students following modules in corporate social responsibility (CSR), sustainability and business ethics. Here the accent is on allowing the students to explore and debate how CSR agendas are emerging within a specific sector of the retail economy. The second is students pursuing fashion, clothing, textile, retailing and consumer studies degrees and here the focus is on how some of the leading fashion goods retailers are addressing CSR. More generally the case can also be used on “Contemporary Issues” modules within general business and management programmes.Case overviewThis small case offers an exploratory review of the emerging CSR issues currently being publicly addressed by the world's leading fashion goods retailers. It includes a brief introduction to CSR; a brief thumbnail sketch of the fashion goods industry; details of the method of enquiry; a description of the CSR issues currently being publicly addressed by the top ten fashion good retailers on their corporate web sites; and some critical reflections on the CSR agendas being pursued by these retailers. The case study is novel in two ways. First, it focuses upon what is an emerging market issue rather than on emerging markets per se though a number of the issues raised in the case have major implications for emerging economies. Second, it addresses the CSR issues being addressed by a number of the leading fashion goods retailers and as such it a not a case which relates to individual decision making. While the case is principally focussed upon the retail sector it ranges across the whole of the supply chain.Expected learning outcomesThe paper provides an accessible review of the CSR issues and agendas currently being pursued by the leading fashion goods retailers and as such it will be of interest to academics, students and practitioners who are interested in both the fashion industry and corporate sustainability.Supplementary materialsTeaching notes are available, please consult your librarian for access.

Abstract:
This study focuses on the topic of CSR and profitability and extends the current literature on the topic by examining the relationship between CSR and profitability from a game theory setting. Specifically, this study implements game modelling and develops two parts of analysis on the topic of CSR and profitability. The goal of part one analysis is to investigate competing CSR firms in comparison with competing non-CSR firms. The part two analysis is to study a CSR firm and a non-CSR firm that compete in the same market in two scenarios. In scenario 1, the CSR firm and its non-CSR counterpart compete for profitability. In scenario 2, the CSR firm is operating to optimize its defined welfare objective; whereas the non-CSR operates for a maximized profit level. The solutions to the models complemented with a detailed analysis reveal that the CSR could actually gain strategic and competitive advantages over its non-CSR counterpart in both defined scenarios. However, this study does not intend to advocate a positive relationship between CSR and profit performance. The positive relationship is qualified, and whether or not the relationship is positive, as this study shows, is dependent on the firm’s tactics.

Abstract:
This essay has aimed at exploring how different companies work with CSR. We want to highlight their opinions about the topic, what it means for the companies that work with it and how important it is to apply CSR in a business. The reason why we chose this subject is because of the possibilities that come with working with CSR. We think there are a lot to be done when it comes to corporate social responsibility and we want to be a part of this new type of marketing. The win-win-situation that occurs with CSR is unique and it makes the subject interesting. When there are plenty of winners due to a marketing method, it has to be something to take seriously.   To reach our goal with this study we have designed two questions; For what reason does companies work with CSR to strengthen the brand?   Which advantages and disadvantages does it mean for a brand to work with CSR?   By having done several interviews and study of existing theories, we have reached our goal. We have through this work come to the conclusion that CSR plays an important role in the efforts to strengthen brands. The knowledge among the consumer has increased over the years and they have started to be more demanding when it comes to how companies operate. At the same time, companies have begun to realize that they can use CSR to relate properties to the brand that appeals to the consumer. Our qualitative study has brought more interesting information to daylight and we are happy to present it during our essay.

Abstract:
CSR has been a more popular subject in the last few decades. However, CSR is seldom connected with SMEs. Many scholars suggest that the reasons are: firstly the attention on CSR practice falls much more on MNCs since publics perceive MNCs have bigger impact on the society. Secondly, most SMEs do not have required resources to work with CSR and many SMEs regard CSR as a burden. However, there are more and more SMEs that start to work with CSR. Therefore the purpose of this thesis is to increase the understanding of why SMEs work with CSR and how do SMEs implement CSR strategies.   The theoretical framework contains strategy, CSR pyramid, decision making process, stakeholder theory, business opportunity model of CSR for SME, legitimacy, strategy implementation and business relations. The emiprical findings contain the case firms’ view on what stimulate them to work with CSR and how they implement its CSR strategies within and outside the firms.   In the analysis we have connected the theoretical framework with our empirical findings. We analyze who the decision makers are and most important stakeholders within the firm as well as what stakeholders are interested in to be able to answer our firs research quesiton. Furthermore, we describe the implemetion process of our case firms as well as to analyze what types of business relations they have wirh its supplier, which will help us to answer our second research question.   The conclusions of this thesis are that it is profitability that drives SMEs to work with CSR. Furthermore, SMEs carry out its CSR strategy differently and the differences depend on how much resources do firms have and the types of relationship with suppliers.

Titel: Corporate Social Responsibility - Bostadsbolagens sociala ansvarstagande och relationerna mellan CSR och genus.Ämne kurs: Fastighetsvetenskap, Kandidatuppsats, 15 hpFörfattare: Anna Lundström & Elvira AnderssonHandledare: Karin Staffansson PauliNyckelord: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), hållbarhet, socialt ansvar, genus, jämställdhet.Syfte: Studiens syfte är att bidra till en djupare förståelse för hur bostadsbolag med olika ägandeform väljer att definiera och organisera sitt CSR-arbete. Studien ska även undersöka vilka relationer det finns mellan CSR och genus i fastighetsbranschen. Studien ska bidra till ökad kunskap kring hur olika bostadsbolag arbetar med CSR och de bakomliggande incitamenten bakom arbetet. Finns det några likheter eller skillnader beroende på bostadsbolagens ägandeform?Metod: En kvalitativ studie har genomförts med en kombination av litteraturstudier och intervjuer med representanter från fem stycken bostadsbolag. Bostadsbolagens hemsidor och årsredovisningar har studerats för att bilda en uppfattning om hur bolagen förhåller sig och arbetar med CSR.Teori: Den teoretiska referensramen tar sin utgångspunkt i forskning kring definition av CSR som Carrolls pyramid, teori kring genus som Ackers organisationsteori samt Porter & Kramers teori om skapande av delat värde (creating shared value).Empiri: Det empiriska materialet bygger på en kartläggning av de fem bolagens hemsidor och årsredovisningar samt en intervjustudie med en representant från respektive bolag.Slutsats: Resultatet av studien visar att samtliga bolag oberoende av ägandeform definierar CSR liknande. CSR som begrepp är på väg att försvinna och ersättas av hållbarhet och socialt ansvarstagande. CSR innebär att ta ansvar för ekonomin, miljön och det sociala. Samtliga bolag separerar dessa tre delar och kopplar främst CSR till bolagets sociala ansvarstagande. Samtliga bolag organiserar CSR-arbetet olika. Inte heller här kan någon tydlig skillnad ses mellan organiseringen av CSR-arbetet och ägandeformen. CSR handlar om hållbarhet, för att något ska vara hållbart måste det vara rättvist och när det är rättvist är det också jämställt. Studien visar att det finns en relation mellan CSR och genusaspekten, det handlar om att bolagen ska ta socialt ansvar inåt i organisationen och ha en jämställd och hållbar kultur på arbetsplatsen. Samtliga respondenter i studien anser att den egna organisationen är jämställd, men inte fastighetsbranschen generellt. Jämställdhet ökar för att fler människor ställer krav, precis som med företagens samhällsansvar. Företagens samhällsansvar ökar för att samhället kräver det.

The websites and annual reports of the housing companies have been studied to form an idea of how companies relate and work with CSR.Theory: The study’s theoretical points of departure have their basis in research on the definition of CSR as Carroll's CSR pyramid, theory of gender as Ackers organization theory and Porter and Kramer’s theory of creating shared value.Empirics: The empirical data is based on a survey of five companies’ websites and annual reports as well as interwies with a representative from each company.Conclusion: The results of the study identifies that all companies irrespective of the form of ownership defines CSR resembling. CSR as a concept is about to disappear and be replaced by sustainability and social responsibility. CSR means taking responsibility for the economy, environment and the social society. All companies separate these three parts and connect CSR to the companies social responsibility. All the companies are organizing their work with CSR differently. CSR is about sustainability, for something to be sustainable it must be fair, and when it is fair it is also equal. The study shows a relation between CSR and the gender aspect. The companies have to take social responsibility inside the organization to have an equal and sustainable culture. All respondents in the study belives that their own organization is gender equal but not the real esate industry in general. Gender equality is increasing because more people demands it. Corporate social responsibility are increases because society demands it.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Allt fler företag har idag erkänt betydelsen av att ta ett ökat samhällsansvar, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), samt att regelbundet kommunicera arbetet med deras intressenter. Då CSR saknar en enhetlig definition och därmed också en enhetlig modell att arbeta efter, skapar det emellertid oklarheter vad arbetet ska leda till. CSR kan då omfamnas av företag som enbart ser arbetet som ett PR-trick och gör symboliska handlingar för att utåt sett uppfattas som goda samhällsmedborgare. Det kan därför ifrågasättas hur väl CSR-arbetet integreras i kärnverksamheten. Det har dock kommit allt fler lagkrav och standarder inom området, vilket potentiellt kan skapa en tydligare ram men även ett annat synsätt. Syfte: Denna studie har som syfte att få en ökad förståelse över CSR som begrepp för att sedan se hur företagen arbetar för att integrera CSR i kärnverksamheten och varför. Studien ser även till påverkan av ökad reglering, för att se om företags syn på CSR har förändrats.    Metod: Studien har huvudsakligen en kvalitativ forskningsstrategi med en deduktiv ansats då studien tar avstamp i tidigare studier. De företag som studerats är Lammhult Design Group AB och Electra AB. Som datainsamlingsmetod har det genomförts semistrukturerade intervjuer med ansvariga personer, men det har även skickats ut en medarbetarundersökning i form av en enkät. I studien har jag dessutom inhämtat information från fallföretagens hemsidor samt års- och hållbarhetsredovisningar.   Resultat och slutsats: Det är inte lika viktigt att finna en enhetlig definition av CSR i dagens samhälle. CSR som begrepp har dessutom allt mer kommit att ersättas av hållbarhet som anses vara ett vidare begrepp. Vidare är det en långsam process att integrera CSR i kärnverksamheten, där intern CSR-röst, utbildning, rutiner och information är av särskild vikt. Genom att ha ett hållbarhetsarbete i framkant och se det som värdeskapande kan företag undvika påtryckning vid potentiella händelser såsom lagkrav.
Background: Today, most companies have recognized the importance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and regularly communicating the work with stakeholders. Since CSR lacks a uniform definition and thus also a uniform model to work for, it creates uncertainties about the purpose of the work. Companies who only do symbolic actions to be perceived as good citizens of the community can then use CSR as PR. It can therefore be questioned how well CSR is integrated into the core business. However, it has been an increasing number of legal requirements and standards in the area, potentially creating a clearer framework but also another approach.   Purpose: The purpose of this study is to gain a greater understanding of CSR as a concept and then see how companies work to integrate CSR into core business and why. The study also looks at the impact of increased regulation, to see if views on CSR have changed.   Method: The study has primarily a qualitative research strategy with a deductive approach that stands on previous studies. The companies studied are Lammhult Design Group AB and Electra AB. As a data collection method, I have conducted semi-structured interviews with responsible managers, but also a staff survey. I have also used the homepages websites and annual and sustainability reports.   Outcome and conclusion: It is not as important to find a unified definition of CSR in today's society. The concept of CSR has been replaced by sustainability, which is considered as a broader term. Furthermore, it is a slow process of integrating CSR into core business, where internal voice, education, routines and information are of particular importance. By maintaining sustainability at the forefront companies can avoid pressure such as legal requirements.

Abstract:
Begreppet CSR, Corporate Social Responsibility, har på senare årtionden blivit ett allt viktigare koncept för företag. För att företag ska kunna vara konkurrenskraftiga krävs det idag att man både tar sitt ansvar utifrån det ekonomiska perspektivet och det sociala perspektivet. I och med att begreppet har vuxit har fler och fler företag börjat använda sig utav CSR och börjat integrera det sin verksamhet. Bankerna ser sig själva idag som stora aktörer i samhällets påverkan att sträva framåt. Därför tar man sig an det samhällsansvar som man förväntas att ta av samhällets medborgare för att bankerna ska anses som goda bankaktörer. Detta är det som kännetecknar CSR, Corporate Social Responsibility, d.v.s. att man tar ett socialt ansvar som man inte tjänar något på. Somliga företag använder begreppet “hållbarhet” hellre än CSR. Vårt syfte med uppsatsen är att beskriva och förklara fenomenet CSR inom bankerna och få större insyn vad det innebär fören bankverksamhet samt hur viktigt det är för bankerna att ha CSR i sin verksamhet. För att kunna besvara våra frågeställningar har vi dels samlat in data i form av intervjuer med CSR ansvariga i Handelsbanken och Swedbank samt den fackliga organisationen Finansförbundet. Vi har även hämtat data från litteratur och vetenskapliga artiklar. Bankerna försöker göra egna tolkningar av begreppet CSR. Trots att Swedbank och Handelsbanken väljer att använda två olika begrepp så går det att se att grundtanken är den samma. Det som skiljer sig mellan dessa två banker när det gäller CSR är vilka projekt man väljer att involvera sig i när det kommer till de olika ansvarsområdena. Allmänheten kan även se mer av Swedbanks CSR arbete, som sticker ut lite mer än Handelsbankens.

Full text
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.

Abstract:
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is not a refreshing concept for the management of an organization in recent years. This concept refers to a firm, which has more responsibilities to adapt the needs of objectives apart from its stakeholders and owners in commercial, legal, ethical, and environmental ways (Beal and Goyen, 2005), and the responsibilities are achieved by meeting or exceeding the commercial, ethical, legal and philanthropic expectation from these objectives. The concept of corporate social responsibility was firstly introduced by the publication of Bowen's Social Responsibility of Businessmen in 1953, while almost all known companies have integrated this spirit into their business model. Nowadays, the promotion of corporate social responsibility has even become not only the wider responsibilities in which an organization contributes to society but also an approach to promote an organization's corporate image (Chang, 2009). The purpose of this paper is to briefly discuss the concept of corporate social responsibility regarding economic, ethical, legal, and philanthropic aspects, and the objectives served by corporate social responsibility such as environments, the society, and the public. This paper then explains how the realization of CSR from one organization can bring effects to its stakeholders and how the organization can obtain benefits from the implementation. Finally, this paper includes two cases from well-known companies in Taiwan, namely TSMC (Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing company) and FPG (Formosa Plastics Group) about how these companies successfully realize corporate social responsibility, and the impacts that influence the stakeholders, and the benefits they obtain for their corporate images.

Centre for Cultural Research and Development, Lingnan University, April 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.14793/ccrd2021001.

Abstract:
Workplace inclusion is a core component of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in Hong Kong. Workplace inclusion points to the need for employers to recognize diversity among employees, to acknowledge their contributions to the work environment and to raise professional standards for the work force. Diversity within a workplace indicates inclusion of persons with different backgrounds as in racial, ethnic, sex, health status, sexual orientation and gender identity. Women are already less represented at senior levels across various business sectors in Hong Kong. Lesbians and bisexual women face a double glass ceiling in the workplace as a result of both their gender and sexual orientation. Funded by Lingnan University’s Innovation and Impact Fund, and in partnership with Interbank Forum and Lesbians in Finance, Prof. Denise Tse-Shang Tang conducted an online survey and two focus groups targeting lesbians and bisexual women working in Hong Kong’s financial and banking industry. The aim of the study is to examine the specific challenges and barriers faced by lesbians and bisexual women in Hong Kong’s financial services industry. We found that only 37% of survey respondents were out at work, with 23% partially out to close colleagues. In other words, there are still key concerns with being out at work. On the issue of a glass ceiling for LGBT+ corporate employees, 18% of the survey respondents agreed and 47% somewhat agreed that such a ceiling exists. When asked whether it is harder for lesbians and bisexual women to come out in the workplace than it is for gay men, 32% agreed and 46% somewhat agreed. 27% agreed and 39% somewhat agreed with the statement that it is difficult for lesbians and bisexual women to climb up the corporate ladder. Other findings pointed to the low visibility of lesbians and bisexual women in corporate settings, lack of mentorship, increased levels of stress and anxiety, and the fear of being judged as both a woman and a lesbian. Masculine-presenting employees face significantly more scrutiny than cisgender female employees. Therefore, even though discussion on diversity and inclusion has been on the agenda for better corporate work environment in Hong Kong, there still remain gaps in raising awareness of lesbian and bisexual women’s issues.

鄧, 芝珊, 惟君 鄧, 詩琳 陳, 寶琪 林, and 琦婷 袁. 為香港金融服務業的女同志和雙性戀女性僱員創造共融職場. 香港嶺南大學-文化研究及發展中心, April 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.14793/ccrd2021002.

Full text
Abstract:
職場共融是香港企業社會責任(Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR)的重要一環。職場共融指出僱主需要尊重僱員之間的多樣性,肯定僱員對工作環境的不同貢獻,並提高員工的專業水準。多元的工作場所亦需要接納來自不同背景、膚色、種族、健康狀況、性傾向和性別認同的員工。綜觀香港商業各界,向來少有女性的高層代表。女同志和雙性戀女性更因為其性別和性傾向,在職場晉升中面臨「雙重隱形天花板」(double glass ceiling) 的阻礙。 透過嶺南大學創新及效益基金的資助,並與香港跨銀行同志論壇(The Hong Kong LGBT Interbank Forum)和Lesbians in Finance合作,鄧芝珊博士向正在香港金融和銀行業工作的女同志和雙性戀女性,進行了一項網絡問卷調查與兩次焦點小組訪談。研究旨在探討香港金融服務業當中,女同志和雙性戀女性所遇到的具體挑戰和障礙。 我們發現,只有37%的問卷調查受訪者曾經在職場「出櫃」,亦有23%向部分關係密切的同事「出櫃」。換言之,他們對於在職場「出櫃」一事仍然有重大顧慮。企業內的LGBT+員工亦面對「隱形天花板」的晉升問題,18%的調查受訪者同意、47%有點同意存在著這種限制。問及女同志和雙性戀女性是否比男同志更難在職場上「出櫃」時,32%受訪者同意、46%表示有點同意。27%的受訪者同意、39%表示有點同意「女同志和雙性戀女性難以獲得企業的晉升」。其他結果則顯示,女同志和雙性戀女性在企業環境中難被看見、缺乏指導機會、承受更大壓力和焦慮,且擔憂女同志和雙性戀女性的身份會令她們遭受質疑。相較於順性別的女性僱員,表現陽剛的員工亦明顯要面臨更嚴格的審查。故此,即使有關多元共融的討論,一直是改善香港企業工作環境的議程之一,但在提升女同志和雙性戀女性議題的意識方面,仍然存在不足之處。
