...of the companies that practice CSR as part of their activities besides the major predetermined goals. Research evidence suggest that a corporation’s socially responsible behavior can positively affect certain attitudes toward the corporation. The effect occurs both directly and indirectly through the behavior’s effect on managers and the overall corporation identification. Thus, perceived corporate social responsibility affects not only customer purchase behavior through customer corporate identification but customer donations to corporate-supported nonprofit organizations. There has been a conceptualization of corporate social responsibility (CSR) that emphasizes the role and potential contribution of marketing discipline and depicts CSR initiatives as the actions undertaken to display conformity to organizational and stakeholder norms. There discuss managerial processes needed to monitor, meet, and even exceed, stakeholder norms, analysis explains how CSR initiatives can generate increased stakeholder support. In the face of marketplace polls that attest to the increasing influence of corporate social responsibility on consumers’ purchase behavior, implicate both company-specific factors, such as the CSR issues company chooses to focus on and the quality of its products, and individual-specific factors, such as consumers’ personal support for the CSR issues and their general beliefs about CSR, as key moderators of consumers’ responses to CSR, mediating role of consumers’ perceptions...

Introduction Nowadays many authors declare Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in strategic terms as it is no longer seen as the invention of some social activist but important source of competitive advantage. However various researchers still struggle to figure out what shape and utility should the tools of CSR have and what implementation model could be the best to fulfill the business objectives. The study aims to demonstrate whether Trompenaars bipolar model of organizational culture could prove useful while implementing CSR strategy and to propose some good practice in this case. 2. Theoretical framework Culture A lot has changed in world of management since 80s and many leaders tend to ask a question whether corporate culture is still important.

... There has been continued debate on the corporate social responsibility (CSR) since 1950s. As reported by D'Amato, Henderson and Florence (2009). On the definition, is that it has undergone transformation. The classical view relating to the role of CSR was first based on the philanthropic perspective after which the shift was directed to the way the corporations relate with the community (Talaei and Nejati n.d). The pioneer to the role of CRS in the society in the early years Shinn (2002) helped encourage the management to have incentives on how to raise both ethics and justice in the community through economization ethics. This however was based on utilization of the available resources though efficiency use and mobilization. The research paper critically analyses on the emerging needs for corporations to have a strong commitment to corporate responsibility and why companies need to be community oriented. Further considerations are based on the programs undertaken by the federal to ensure the policies of corporate social responsibilities are made a meaningful to the society. Shinn (2002) in his paper, towards incorporating the corporate responsibilities in an organization, uses relational theory. It has the originality of linkage between the firm and the environment in which the firm operates. This forms the main objectivity of incorporating CSR in the corporations. Incorporation of the CSR within the firm requires the management of such organizations to be able to...

Rural/Missionary Electrification Isolated segments of the Meralco franchise remain still deprived of the benefits and conveniences of legal electricity service. These include (1) informal settlers in certain public lands or private properties; (2) portions of resettlement areas where informal settlers such as families formerly residing along the Pasig River, railroad tracks and privatized government properties; (3) isolated communities; and (4) families unable to meet the minimum legal requirements to apply for and secure legal electricity connections. The thrust of rural/missionary electrification is to develop feasible alternatives to provide these communities with electricity through workable socialized schemes that are suitable to these potential beneficiaries in partnership with Local Government Units (LGUs), Non- Government Organizations (NGOs), and multilateral or bilateral financing institutions. As the leading electric distribution utility company in the country, Meralco also extends support and assistance to other distribution utilities and cooperatives in restoring electricity service to their customers in urban and rural areas particularly in times of emergencies. 2.

...Business has not learned how to handle these changes, nor does it recognise the magnitude of its responsibilities for the future of civilization,”. We can say that corporate social responsibility is the balance between economic sustainability and social responsibilities . John Rockefeller said : “"I was trained from the beginning to work and save. I have always regarded it as a religious duty to get all I could honorably and to give all I could." . By definition, CSR refers to the "voluntary integration of corporate social and environmental concerns in their commercial operations and in their relations with the parties concerned,” according to The Green Book of the European Commission "Promoting a European framework for Corporate Social Responsibility" . With simple words CSR is whenever a businesses make contributions to the community , by which action showing that they are giving back to the people , which contributed for their flourishing . As a beginning let’s make something clear about the true meaning of CSR . It is not all about philanthropy or doing charity services. This being said does not make such activities unimportant....

...Role of HR in driving Corporate Sustainability measures Executive Summary After the Brundtland report in 1987, special emphasis has been given towards sustainable development and its interrelationship between firm productivity, societal equity and environment quality. Proactive organizations are accountable for facilitating, demonstrating and promoting corporate social responsibility. Companies have to rethink their strategy from being profit driven to corporate citizenship. There has been immense pressure from government, customer, employees and competitors to think towards environmental management. HR can play a critical role in this regard by acting as a medium to communicate and educate firms about the importance of CSR. At the same time HR can integrate business goals and CSR goals by implementing HR practices. Introduction Since rapid industrialisation, natural resources are getting depleted at a fast pace. There is a need to conserve and judiciously use natural resources so that there is no burden on our future generation. Corporate sustainability was once seen as a philanthropic activity but now it is getting its due importance in leading companies. Companies have gone to the extent of proactive environmental management which encourages corporations to prevent pollution at the source rather than at the end of pipeline (Annexure 01). Cutting edge firms are going beyond pollution prevention and exploring new opportunities for developing eco-friendly products, processes and...

...Abhishek Tripathi Abstract ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… CSR is not new to India; companies like TATA and BIRLA have been imbibing the case for social good in their operations for decades long before CSR become a popular cause. Inspite of having such life size successful examples, CSR in India is in a very nascent stage. It is still one of the least understood initiatives in the Indian development sector. Thus the situation is far from perfect as the emphasis is not on social good but rather on a policy that needs to be implemented. A lack of understanding, inadequately trained personnel, non availability of authentic data and specific information on the kinds of CSR activities, coverage, policy etc. further adds to the ineffectiveness of CSR programmes. But the situation is changing and CSR is coming out of the purview of ‘doing social good’ and is fast becoming a ‘business necessity’. The ‘business case’ for CSR is gaining ground and corporate houses are realising that ‘what is good for workers - their community, health, and environment is also good for the businesses. Present article focuses on the CSR with the case study of BILT (YamunaNagar Plant) as a concept and analyses the real life case study. Present paper is divided in to two parts. First part gives the insight of CSR as a concept, current trends of CSR in India and Global Standards on which CSR is implemented and Second part deal with the BILT …………………………………………………………………………………………………………...
