Corporate social responsibility for Greener Now business
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is the continuing commitment by business to behave ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the local community and society at large.
The government sees CSR as being about how business takes account of its economic, social and environmental impacts in the way it operates – maximising the benefits and minimising the downsides.
It is basically the voluntary actions that you can take, over and above compliance with minimum legal requirements, to address both your own competitive interests and the interests of wider society.
When developing your CSR strategy it’s important not to just focus on short term financial returns, effective environmental performance can have a positive effect on long term financial performance.
Drivers of corporate social responsibility include:
- Ethical consumerism
- Globalisation and market forces
- Social awareness and education
- Corporate behaviour and culture
- Government laws and regulation
- Consequences and events
