Description
Summary:Corporate social responsibility is not a new issue. The main aim of a company is to minimise the costs and maximize profits. On the other hand, ethical business people recognise their responsibility to the public and to themselves. Fulfilment of these responsibilities constitutes ethical and socially responsible behaviour. Although corporate social performance (CSP) has been used for several years in the business and society literature, in many cases it has been used synonymously with corporate social responsibility, corporate social responsiveness, or any other interaction between business and the social environment. This study will briefly examine the corporate social responsibility, the performance and reporting issues.
