Corporate Social Responsbility Example?

[luken93]

Just checking, but what is everyone's example if they had to provide 1 for CSR?

Can it just be something that is related to either Bus Ethics or Social Responsibility, or are there special cases?

But isn't that just Social Responsibility?
That's my point, is there any difference between CSR and SR?

[burbs]

No

[luken93]

But then why is the definition of CSR "A combination of Business Ethics and Social Responsibility..."
Bloody hell I hate ESR

[Hellhole]

Social responsibility incorporates organisations taking responsibility for their actions and activites relating to society.
Corporate social responsibilty is that organisations view the interests of the community and take responsibility for the impact of their actions and activities relating to society.

Can you pick the difference?

Idk, you made that definition and are limiting your understanding through it. Mine is:

When organisations display a commitment above their legal obligations to the community, economy and environment.

Well the whole definition, from A+ Notes is "Corporate Social Responsibility is a combination of Business Ethics and Social Responsibility incorporating putting values and principles into practice by means of policies and practices"

Well I'm just gonna say it's the same, as most of the Social Responsibility can also be compared to Ethics, like Environmental Policies, not only are they giving someething back to the community, but it is also ethical to limit the amount of pollution...

[jackson1234]

yeah dont think about it too much, CSR is basically the same thing as SR . You'll get the mark for your definition either way.

[luken93]

Instead I'm gonna start another thread, of all the examples of Ethics and Social Responsibility that everyone has...

[burbs]

A+ is notorious for some shocking definitions.
