Corporate social responsibility ("CSR" for short, and
also called corporate conscience, citizenship, social performance,
or sustainable responsible business[1]) is a form of corporate self-regulation
integrated into a business model. CSR policy functions as a built-in,
self-regulating mechanism whereby business monitors and ensures
its active compliance with the spirit of the law, ethical standards,
and international norms. The goal of CSR is to embrace responsibility
for the company's actions and encourage a positive impact through
its activities on the environment, consumers, employees, communities,
stakeholders and all other members of the public sphere. Furthermore,
CSR-focused businesses would proactively promote the public interest
by encouraging community growth and development, and voluntarily
eliminating practices that harm the public sphere, regardless of
legality. CSR is the deliberate inclusion of public interest into
corporate decision-making, and the honouring of a triple bottom
line: people, planet, profit.
The term "corporate social responsibility" came in to
common use in the early 1970s, after many multinational corporations
formed. The term stakeholder, meaning those on whom an organization's
activities have an impact, was used to describe corporate owners
beyond shareholders as a result of an influential book by R. Edward
Freeman, Strategic management: a stakeholder approach in 1984.[2]
Proponents argue that corporations make more long term profits by
operating with a perspective, while critics argue that CSR distracts
from the economic role of businesses. Others argue CSR is merely
window-dressing, or an attempt to pre-empt the role of governments
as a watchdog over powerful multinational corporations.
CSR is titled to aid an organization's mission as well as a guide
to what the company stands for and will uphold to its consumers.
Development business ethics is one of the forms of applied ethics
that examines ethical principles and moral or ethical problems that
can arise in a business environment. ISO 26000 is the recognized
international standard for CSR (currently a Draft International
Standard). Public sector organizations (the United Nations for example)
adhere to the triple bottom line (TBL). It is widely accepted that
CSR adheres to similar principles but with no formal act of legislation.
The UN has developed the Principles for Responsible Investment as
guidelines for investing entities.
