defines CSR;
CSR encompasses not only what companies do with their profits, but
also how they make them. It goes beyond philanthropy and compliance
and addresses how companies manage their economic, social, and
environmental impacts, as well as their relationships in all key
spheres of influence: the workplace, the marketplace, the supply
chain, the community, and the public policy realm. |
