businesses have to the societies within which these businesses
operate.
• The European Commission defines CSR as “a concept whereby

• Specifically, CSR suggests that a business identify its stakeholder
groups and incorporate their needs and values within its strategic
and operational decision-making process.

26. Why to engage in CSR ?
• The following were cited in a poll throughout eight Western,
developed countries by citizens as the main reasons why firms
want to be socially responsible, good citizens. Note how most
could fall under one umbrella: Company long term strategic
interest
1. Reduced risk
2. Market reputation/brand image
3. Relations with stakeholders (attracting & retaining
employees, morale, expedited permits, happy regulators)
4. Putting something back
5. The right thing to do/corporate values
6. Offers social capital or license to operate or grow (give
and take)
28. Profits = Optimal resource allocation
• This common view of CSR has its roots in the utilitarian tradition
and in neoclassical economics.
• As the agents of the owners of business, managers have
primary responsibility to pursue maximum profits for
shareholders.
• By pursuing profits, a business manager functions to allocate
resources to their most efficient uses. Consumers who most
value a resource will be willing to pay the most for it; thereby
profit is the measure of optimal allocation of resources. Over
time, the pursuit of profit will continuously work towards
the optimal satisfaction of consumer demand, which in one
interpretation of utilitarianism, is the optimal social good.
30. Prioritization of Stakeholders
• The prioritization of stakeholders is often determined by a
company’s mission, practice, board or custom.
• All too often, however, the prioritization is presumed rather than
intentionally discussed and challenged, which might lead to
entrenchment rather than enhancement of the firm.
.
31. The Nature and Extent of the Responsibility
• Is profit, legally made, the only guiding principle of socially
responsible business activities, or should the impact of a decision on
others be considered, even where the law does not require it?
• What do we mean when we say “responsible?”
– We might mean that it is reliable, dependable or trustworthy.
– A second meaning of responsible involves attributing something as a
cause for some event or action.
– A third sense involves attributing liability or accountability for some
event or action and creates a responsibility to make things right again.
Social “responsibility” is what a business should or ought to do for the sake of society.
32. What should a business do?
• Business has the social responsibility to obey the law.
• Philosophers would contend that we have responsibilities beyond
the law and they distinguish between different types of
responsibilities, on a scale from more to less demanding and
binding.
– First, we have responsibilities not to cause harm to others.
– A second, perhaps less binding responsibility, is to prevent harm even
in those cases where one is not the cause.
– Finally, there might be responsibilities to do good.
