What is Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)?
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) refers to strategies that companies put into action as part of corporate governance designed to ensure the company’s operations are ethical and beneficial for society.
Here are the reasons why corporate social responsibility matters in today’s society according to our friend corporatefinanceinstitute.com
Categories of CSR
Although corporate social responsibility is a comprehensive concept that is understood and implemented differently by each firm, the underlying idea of CSR is to operate in an economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable manner.
Generally, corporate social responsibility initiatives are categorized as follows:
1. Environmental responsibility
Environmental responsibility initiatives aimed at reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions and the sustainable use of natural resources.
2. Human rights responsibility
Human rights responsibility initiatives involve providing fair labor practices (e.g., equal pay for equal work) and fair trade practices and disavowing child labor.
3. Philanthropic responsibility
Philanthropic responsibility can include funding educational programs, supporting health initiatives, donating to causes, and supporting community beautification projects.
4. Economic responsibility
Economic responsibility initiatives involve improving the firm’s business operation while participating in sustainable practices – for example, using a new manufacturing process to minimize wastage.
Business Benefits of CSR
In a way, corporate social responsibility can be seen as a public relations effort. However, it goes beyond that, as corporate social responsibility can also boost a firm’s competitiveness. The business benefits of corporate social responsibility include the following:
1. Stronger brand image, recognition, and reputation
CSR adds value to firms by establishing and maintaining a good corporate reputation and/or brand equity.
2. Increased customer loyalty and sales
Customers of a firm that practices CSR feel that they are helping the firm support good causes.
3. Operational cost savings
Investing in operational efficiencies results in operational cost savings as well as reduced environmental impact.
4. Retaining key and talented employees
Employees often stay longer and are more committed to their firm, knowing that they are working for a business that practices CSR.
5. Easier access to funding
Many investors are more willing to support a business that practices CSR.
6. Reduced regulatory burden
Strong relationships with regulatory bodies can help to reduce a firm’s regulatory burden.

BEWARE OF “GET RICH FAST” PROGRAMS!
There is nothing like having your own online business. You make the decisions, and as one song says, you “win or learn.” However, creating your own company can be tricky, especially if you build from the ground up. There will be constant questions that must be answered, such as:
How will we consistently draw in customers? How will we stay up with trends? How will we do all of this and not break the bank? It quickly becomes obvious that one thing is needed above all else-
INFORMATION IS NEEDED
Without accurate facts and data, wrong decisions get made. When a fork in the road comes up, a turn can become a dead end.
What is the most common way to find information right now? If you said, “Google it!” you are right.
Unfortunately, Google isn’t an encyclopedia. It is a place where people upload information and sometimes that information isn’t as reliable as we would like it to be.
In fact, some people put false information online to see what effect it might have.
THE IMPORTANCE OF STRAIGHT FACTS
But if you, as a new business owner, go to Google and receive false answers to your questions, you could lose your business. At the very least, you might lose money, time, or a good reputation.
ONE TYPE OF SCAM
One of the most damaging falsehoods—also known as a scam—is the type that asks for people to “invest” in a company. Then, that company will help the person earn unbelievable amounts of money.
GO FOR HONEST, COMPETENT MENTORS
It takes work to locate mentors and assistants who will help your business take off and do it without taking your shirt.

- Paul O’Mahoney

- Itamar Shafir
